It’s old music, but for me the best release of 2010 was
“This is Still It,” a re-issue of 19 tracks from The Method Actors,
who tore it up all ’round here in the early 80s. Thirty years
later, it’s still unique and energetic music. I remember driving to
the Strand cabaret in Marietta to see ‘em, and being disappointed
that they were unable to play the show and those upstarts REM were
playing instead. Also loved Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings “TheHard
Way.” Bonafide soul music is hard to come by these days, and when
it’s done right, it gives me chills.

Mad props to Stomp and Stammer. Only music magazine I read
on a regular basis. Jeff Clark and David T. Lindsay are astute and
clever critics of pop culture . . . and boy does pop culture
deserve some criticism.

Janelle Monae, Archaindroid was my hands down favorite of the year.
