Arcade is definitely the contributing reviewer that best represents my need for large concepts to be represented by small, concise, and digestible reports. Oh, and the relatable existential dread too!

Yeah and when jazz in 2015 is a list this long, it's hard to think many people really have a hold on it: http://www.tomhull.com/ocston/nm/m2015.php?gs=J"
you could say that about any genre really. To me "AOTY" always just means someone's personal favorite. I think I listened to about 9 new jazz albums this year and this is my favorite of them; However, obviously I'm only scratching the surface of jazz as a whole this year. But, I listen to other genres and literally no one can keep up with all of that. Yes, I respect peoples' opinion who do keep their finger on the pulse as much as possible, so I get your point. Just providing a different perspective.

I guess it's a where-do-you-draw-the-line type of thing. I think it's fair to at least be up-to-speed on a genre before claiming one album to be its pinnacle for an entire year but I guess w/e

I can definitely agree with that. I think it is a where-do-you-draw-the-line thing. And honestly, I don't know. I try and keep up with music as much as possible (as do most people who frequent this site I'm sure) and consume a probably unhealthy amount of music each year and even then I know that I still barely scratch the surface of all the genres I like each year.

maybe that came across wrong. I meant users as a whole here are probably consuming music at a much higher rate than the general public, and even then I doubt many are seriously digesting as many albums from a single genre each year as that man's jazz list. That's all.
That list did give me a great reference point for a bunch of other albums to check out though.
