Okay. I'm going out on a limb this week, I hope you'll join me. In adapting writing for this column from my blog, I've focused the Spotlight On albums that I both had already written about at length, and was excited to revisit in a new context. At the start of this process, I sort of figured most of what I'd written for last year's 2022-in-review 100 Albums post met those (pretty easy) criteria. There had to be at least enough winners to last until the next 100 Albums post at the end of the year. As it turns out, Vaults Of Eternity, um, was the last of the good ones. Most of what's left to work with barely cracks Tweet length, seriously. The quality of the 100 Albums post was...greatly exaggerated to the Spotlight On Shareholders. So, from here on out, expect newer, wackier, stuff from the column, increasingly spontaneous and made up as we go. I'm talking full on crate-digging weirdness. I think the most valuable of what I've written so far's been artist-specific tangents about which I'm uniquely curious, and less professionally evaluated reviews, at which I do not necessarily excel. Maybe I just distract too easily. On that note, let's give Satoshi Ashikawa's Still Way (Wave Notation 2) a listen. Moonrabbit Note: The album-themed posts on this blog are published in their entirety for free as Bonus Tracks on the Spotlight On Blog.
