Next up in the Best of 2010 guest posts is Will Hines, one of my favorite people with whom to banter about music. Will lives in London so he has a perspective on the music scene that is very different from my own so I’m always interested to find out what he’s listening to. That is, when he isn’t plotting his next major move. His best of 2010 contribution is a great albums list and awesomely shameless best tracks list. It certainly made me rethink a few of the bands I had breezed over.
