morgan_dhu | Writer's Block: Ten for the Tenth

So today LiveJournal suggests that we identify our 10 favourite albums.

To which I can only say, Ha!

It's not possible. I've struggled to cut it down to 30, but to do even that, I've had to resort to compilation releases by some of my favourite musicians. And I've reached the point where I can't cut anything out without immediately putting it back in and trying to find something else to cut. And I'm sure that the minute I post it, I'll start thinking "but how could I have left out X?"
