TOP 100 OF 2006

今年歲末因手頭上還有一些雜誌的稿子正在趕工，所以提早進行「年終百大」的選片工作。從滿坑滿谷的CD唱片、Vinyl、CDR以及MP3裡選出了自己今年最鍾愛的100張唱片。無論怎麼選、如何周詳規劃，仍然有一些美好的音樂成為了遺珠之憾。往年自己會特別將北歐及非北歐音樂發行做出分類，並公佈兩份選單；不過隨著今年工作忙碌的關係，最後決定只公佈這一份「TOP 100 OF YEAR」；不盡然完美，卻也了了一樁心事。電台司令(Radiohead)主唱Thom Yorke固然非一整年裡頭最具突破性的音樂專輯，卻是陪伴自己一整年的一張唱片；Type廠牌的Helios與Svarte Greiner一向是自己所鍾愛的音樂類型，尤其在純淨的冬日裡，一點點陰雨、一點點潮溼，和一點點無調性。Phelan Sheppard是今年度最大的發現，嚴格來說它可以成為一張年度最佳專輯。Beirut、CSS、Joanna Newsom雖是南轅北轍的音樂路線，不過全數能在年度的各大榜單上突圍而出亦不令人意外。Tunng與Susanna & the Magical Orchestra絕對是年度「必備」與「必要收藏」的兩張唱片；這年尾的重頭戲則是英國Brit-pop大團Pulp主唱Jarvis Cocker的個人專輯，相信也是Pulp迷必備。(原本和Sylvain先生開玩笑說要把Jarvis Cocker的專輯踢出百大，最後還是覺得實在太好聽、封面設計也太棒而留住了。)諸位若對下列「百大專輯」有任何疑問或購片的問題，可以直接留言或E-Mail詢問。最後感謝兩個辛勤耕耘的台灣進口唱片代理商─節點文化與默契音樂，你們的存在才會有更多好音樂在這裡發生。
P.S以下圈黃字的專輯代表為「北歐」專輯。
