Very few new albums in 2004, mostly due to a lack of funds.
And the winner is...
Congratulations to Frank for winning this somewhat dubious honor for the second year in a row, and for once again mixing together the CD that give me the most enjoyment for the entire year. Keep up the good work, man.

THE USUAL GOOD-INENTIONED PLANS THAT IN REALITY I MAY NEVER GET AROUND TO: Since FRANKtunes have won two years in a row and it's impossible to buy them anywhere, I may try to post the cover art and track listing so you can hunt down the tracks and make the CD for yourself. Frank likes the idea too, so hopefully I'll get it done.
