9 months ago

I previously asked if it would "ruin the climax to post my Favorite Album of 2008 in advance of the remaining albums" and was told it wouldn't. But I then discovered that what would ruin the climax would be not to post the album or the entire list until January 24th. Did anyone read it? I am not sure. I guess the end of January is already 1/12 into the 2009 music season. Duly noted.
