2003 Revisited

Now that Fantasia Barrino has captured the 2004 American Idol crown, it's time to look back to 2003 and begin reconsidering the top 10 albums list from that year. (To refresh your memory, the old list is on the sidebar.) Below is a list of all the albums of new material (no greatest hits or live albums) that came out in 2003 and have, so far, made it onto my CD rack. It's only 41 albums, so picking 10 or so to honor as the best shouldn't be hard, right? Albums that I didn't have when I made the list are in italics. But before I narrow the list, I'd like you to tell me what albums from 2003 I'm missing. It's never too late to consider one more great album.
