Sam’s favorite records of 09 (Sam is the host of The Deep Sea Vent, Thursdays from 8-10)

This is silly because I do not buy albums. Does anyone buy albums any more? This SHOULD be a 10 best songs of ’09 list, but I don’t have time for that, there are too many good songs out there to condense to that short of a list. So here is a pretty loosely put together list of albums that i did not buy but were put out by artists whose songs I truly enjoy and stand out in my mind as defining the sound of 2009. I hope you enjoyed listening to tracks off of these albums as much as I enjoyed playing them for you on KHOL. Thanks for tuning in, Sam
