Musik 2k11

People will say what they say, but I thought 2011 was a great year in music.  My tastes definitely diversified and this is a hard list to compile.  I'm sure I didn't listen to what are supposedly the best albums like the Jay-Z or Adele albums, but here's what really caught my ear this year.  This is in no particular order as I am wimping out on choosing a top album.  Everyone is a winner!
