What's happening with this - are we going to make our final decisions?

Kurt Elling: The Gate
This was the soundtrack to our Island adventures in Guadeloupe for Matt and I. Amazing album!

[CJ]

Thanks everyone, before we get too far down the line lets just wait a while to see if anyone has any albums they forgot to add to the 2011 list.

Phil/Abbo - you selected albums that were not in the 'made the grade' list, so I've added them for you!

[CJ]

Ok - so it's officially time to nominate our Top 3 albums of the 2011.

A few of you have started the ball rolling so let's see how we get on this year.

Think hard

Tough call apart from the first one because there are a few other very strong contenders but here goes!

London Elektricity, Yikes
Mark de Clive-Lowe, Renegades
Jazztronik, Dig Dig Dig

All the best!

Sorry, but I haven't listened to enough 2011 music to leave a vote here.

[Rybo]

Ophone - just name one then!!!

For me Hocus Pocus : 16 Pieces absolutely slays anything I heard last year. Head and shoulders above everyone else.
I am tempted just to lay that down as my vote and forget the rest, but the album received a lukewarm response on this forum so it ain't going to win anything on this board...

So here goes:

1. Hocus Pocus : 16 Pieces

2. Sabrina Malheiros : Dreaming
3. Banda Black Rio : Super Nova Samba Funk
