Uninspiringness of chart = reason it took me a while to get round to posting it!

That Alex Gaudino track has somehow got even worse since I first heard it a few weeks ago.

2008 has been a pretty wretched year for the charts so far.

I dunno we had a glorious few weeks when Estelle, Wiley, H Two O, Flo Rida et al were doing well - really heartening. There seems to have been a complete lack of big releases in the past month or so though I note 'No Air' preparing to flatten all in its path at no 74.

2008 >>>>> 2007 by far music-wise, bizarrely this seems to have been manifest most in ALBUMS (or half-albums in Santogold's case).
