My Top Picks for '07
Hello fellow DJ Readers (i.e. Hayes). I've been enjoying the daily posts from Mr. Trotter. In fact, the first thing I do every morning is merge onto the Information Superhighway and soak it in while Hayes drops his musical knowledge. I (not being as patient) have crafted a ridiculously long (borderline nerdy----very nerdy) year end list of songs (top 40) and albums (top 10). Check em out and comment if you feel the need:

Willow #2? Tragedy. I've got your new Willow by the way. Shall we say prequel? Can I spell prequel?
Thanks Brian . . . . you're the new Mike Jonze. Just don't have a kid anytime soon.
