Okay, I'm not hugely fond of "best of year" lists, because they always leave something out that I liked alot. Just because one person really thinks a CD was great, or terrible as the case may be, doesn't mean that I think the same thing. I've discovered that there are CD's I passed up on several years ago because of a lackluster review in a magazine only to discover it recently and really love it.
So, I'm going to do several categorical lists of the CD's of 2007, with some commentary of what I thought about it. They may or may not be in a particular order, when it is I'll make a note of it.
First, I'll list my Top Twelve Favorite CDs of 2007. 12 because I'm a huge NASCAR fan, and I figured if they can have the top 12 drivers in the Chase, I can have my top 12 CDs.
Then my Almost Top faves and the honorable mentions.
Lastly, there is some separate lists of other CDs - Christmas, secular rock & pop, classical & soundtracks, that are in order of like the most to like the least.
Now, these I only recently acquired (Christmas presents from my mom or bought recently) and I can't make a decision yet because I've not hardly listened to them:
Tell Me What You Know by Sara Groves - I'm already starting to love this one!
I Belong by Kathryn Scott
Everyone Overcome by Desperation Band
All That Is Within Me by MercyMe
Cannons by Phil Wickham
Peace Like A River by Chris Rice
