Best Albums 2000-2009 pt.4

4 Jan

Putting together a list of best albums is difficult enough to do for just one year, but I have always wanted to do a whole decade because it makes me reflect on albums that I still listen to today, have forgotten because they didn’t stick with me long-term or have known all along that they are my all time favorite.  I spent more time determining the order of albums then I did picking which to include among the 30, agonizing which album was better than the other.  It was a fun exercise and might even lead to further “best of the decade” lists so I hope you enjoy!

Going Quiet

11 Dec

After the completion of my “Top Records of The 2000’s” list, In Place Of Real Insight will be going quiet for the forseable future.

I started the blog so I could write about some stuff that I wasn’t able to at my original Blog  FOH.  I was hoping for more reader interaction and a good open forum for discussion about different things but never got that.  People were reading but not interacting, which was a let down but I am not going to make excuses or whine about it.  It is what it is.

I am going to refocus my time back on FOH and try to build it back up to what it used to be.  It was a moment of pride to know at one point that we had 22,000 readers per month and I would love to have that again.  Please feel free to follow my work over there (i write under the name Cal Meacham) and maybe some day I will bring this blog back.
