Eleştirmenler 2008 yılının en iyi caz albümlerini seçti

Evet, işte yine bir yıl sonu, yine geçen koca bir yılı değerlendirme ayı. Aralık albümlerin bir anlamda karnesi gibidir. Belki müzisyenlerden çok plak firmaları bekler bu listeleri. Özenle yayınladıkları, epey paralar harcadıkları albümlerinin TOP listelerine girmesini beklerler haklı olarak. Evet, lafı fazla uzatmadan hayli uzun bir seçki olan listeleri Cazkolik okuyucularının dikkatine sunuyoruz.
