I can't find the top Albums of '06 thread though I know there is one. However I can't believe I left Camera Obscura off both this list and that one. I predicted Let's Get Out Of This Country would be a grower, and now I'm so in love with that album...I don't even wanna analyze it. It's just beautiful. Highlights: "Lloyd, I'm Ready to Be Heartbroken", "Tears For Affairs" and "Dory Previn".
