A few of my friends and also fellow music experts/lovers took a look at my Best of 2007 list and came up with their own. The following gentlemen were Bill Reese a music journalist and long time collaborator, Rich Delgado (Rich D Smoov), a NYC DJ and former hardcore singer and finally Mike Clancey, a co manager with me at WQAQ and editor. Three experts with three different opinions. It is fun to look at each man's list.
