I think they are all great, but I have to give HUGE props to Kevin’s “100 Greatest Women” #1. That whole series was amazing.

Brady-If I remember it accurately, I don’t think you can short change your “Bob that Head” review. Classic.

Matt B from Roughstock had a nice conversation with Joey + Rory as well.

Ditto for my man Dan and Morgan Neville from Johnny Cash’s America.

Brody, for the news roundups, and Brady, for his Best Songs of (Month), deserve some credit, but I’m not sure where that fits in.

I also vote for myself obviously in every possible category. Sugarland does, so I’m in good company. (http://blog.cmt.com/2008-10-08/sugarlands-hot-button-issues/)

Basically, I nominate everybody. Kudos to country music writers.

I think Jim's introduction to Joey + Rory is amongst the best, so I'm nominating it. He's got some other great ones coming down the line, too.

That one was actually recommended by Carolyn at Melodic Sunburst, Matt, but I did like it as well. Nice work.

Interesting that you like the Charlie Allen interview. Since that literally was a conversation and not a ‘ask and answer’ session.

I’m not taking Dan’s post out of the conversation, but I am replacing Brady’s with his review of the same album. That doesn’t mean they’ll make the final list, but they were both very cool and deserve consideration.

I’m gonna have to go along with Dan and say my review of “Bob That Head” isn’t worthy. It didn’t require nearly as much work as any of these other great pieces and I’m fine with showcasing everyone else’s better efforts.

You can feel free to axe my album review; don’t feel obligated. That’s a pretty ordinary post, really, unless you want to include a “best review of the year’s worst album” category, in which I think you’ll have to take a good look at Brady’s, too. :) Not that I don’t appreciate the props; I just want to get them for my best work (which I hope is yet to come). Just my opinion, though – I really do appreciate Leeann for mentioning it!

And I’m really glad that Melodic Sunburst post is there; that’s a killer.
