    Mr. Holland’s Top 10 list at Pop matters includes my picks from Sunny Sweeney and Elizabeth Cook, the only list I’ve seen thus far to contain anything I really like! Well its comforting to know at least one other person out there has good taste in real country music….(lol)…(just kidding)

    Despite picking those albums (I thought they were good, just not Top 10 material), Mr. Holland’s list seems to be a bit off, with Gretchen Wilson, Toby Keith, and Carrie Underwood making appearances. Despite liking Joe Nichols, his last album wasn’t Top 10 material, either.

    Yes Brady, I thought that his list was good except for those picks. Another curious list on the same site is another author’s top 5 “pop-country” albums, which includes… Lucinda Williams and Kelly Willis?

    The Joe Nichols record was totally Top 10 material. Way underrated.
