Just wondering what everybody's putting down on their Christmas (or any other gift giving celebration) list this year in terms of music. I know I'm missing some things on my list that aren't coming to my head right now so I figured another person's list might spark my memory.
Here's hoping!
AC Newman - Get Guilty
Ron Hawkins - 10 kinds of lonely
Matt Good - Hospital Music
Matt Good - Vancouver
Metric - Fantasies
Weakerthans - Left and Leaving
Weakerthans - Reunion Tour
Pearl Jam - Backspacer
Joel Plaskett Emergency - Down at The Khyber
Joel Plaskett Emergency - Truthfully, Truthfully
Kathleen Edwards - Failer
Kathleen Edwards - Back to Me
Of course if anyone wants to drop a couple of hundred dollars there's the new Beatles Boxset and the Neil Young archives!
Paul McCartney- good evening new york city
Stereophonics- keep calm & carry on
Foo Fighters- greatest hits
Them Crooked Vultures
The Trews- acoustic: friends & total strangers
And tops on my list was the John Mellencamp "on the rural route 7609" boxset, but i just read yesterday where the release date has been pushed back until next summer
I really want to get the Big Star Box Set "Keep An Eye On The Sky"
My list includes:
John Doe & the Sadies - Country Club
Dave Rawlings Machine - A Friend of a Friend
Silver Jews - Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea
Bonnie Prince Billy - Beware
Dan Mangan- Nice, Nice, Very Nice
Patrick Watson- Wooden Arms
The National- Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers and Alligator on vinyl
Cat Stevens- Mona Bone Jakon
Miles Davis- Bitches Brew

Ditto.
Nothing really, just tickets to Billy Talent/Alexisonfire/Against Me! at the Sudbury Arena in March.

I picked up the Against Me! album (I think it was New Wave) last year after hearing Thrash Unreal and listening to a bunch of their older lo-fi acoustic stuff and being blown away by the lyrics, and I have to say New Wave was one of the most boring albums I'd heard in many a moon.
Tom Petty - The Live Anthology - 4 CD Set
This is 4 disks of 11 to 14 songs each. And each CD is arranged to play like a complete, well-paced concert
And it is less than $20 !

Aside from the Beatles boxset (which won't happen) I have a list of over 200 that is fairly regularly updated. I'd expect to get 5-6 of them.
Highlights (that I most want, but will be least likely to get) include
Band Of Skulls - Baby Darling Dollface Honey
Duke Special - I Never Thought This Day Would Come
Kris Kristofferson - This Old Road
Muse - The Resistance
Richard Hawley - Coles Corner
She & Him - Volume One
Tom Waits - Real Gone

He has a new one out that I haven't even heard yet, but Coles Corner is sooo good.

Got this on vinyl last xmas. Great album.

I never owned a copy but the first side of this album gets better and better every listen. 'Written All Over Me' and 'Work Out Fine' are a fantastic duo.

Another one to add to my list then, i love Petty. I'm hoping he ends up playing at one of the big outdoor concerts here in the Maritimes this summer, i've heard his name come up in rumors a few times.
a damn job would be just swell
