Quick Notes

Updated the "best of" 2010 list this weekend. Nothing much, but some tweaks and a couple of new records added. Here are the (tentative) grades of the new additions (no write-ups this time around. I'm sorry):

• No Age: Everything In Between (Sub Pop) 8
  
• Eskmo: Eskmo (Ninja Tune) 7
  
• Steve Reich: Double Sextet/2x5 (Nonesuch) 7
  
• Of Montreal: False Priest (Polyvinyl) 7
  
• Taylor Swift: Speak Now (Big Machine) 7

Also, I want to remind any visitor to have a look on the "Subject to Change" links section on the sidebar, which I update regularly even if there may not be any new posts on the blog. Most recently, William Parker guests Jason Crane's The Jazz Session. And an interview with David S. Ware to come on Thursday. Looking like a very good week, Mr. Crane.
