Personal 2011 in review: Solid effort, no vintage year. To borrow a phrase from the still-wisest-man-in-pop: ”Too long with no story and no sex.” Looking back at my new year’s resolutions, I wanted to “start my Master’s degree, move to a foreign country, date a model and launch a music blog”. Three out of four ain’t bad! So this might get a Best New Reissue when I tell my robo-grandkids about it in 2064. | 7.2
