    Is Jim Clark going mad?

    He listed two cds among his 'worst of 2010' that have been given a lot of favorable attention, one of them on RR (Josh Ritter) and the other was chosen by Mojo magazine as their best of 2010. I just ordered the latter after hearing a couple good sample tracks, and the guy is backed by the band Midlake. So somebody is terribly wrong here and I'm not saying who, but.....

    I call my bathroom Jim instead of John so I can tell people that I go to the Jim first thing every morning.

    If you say the word 'gullible' very slowly it sounds just like oranges.
