Album Nomination Game -- ROUND FOUR
Joseph:
I'm with Matt here. Abbey Road takes the cake for me as far as The Beatles are concerned. It's Sgt. Peppers that always struck me as a back runner in their catalogue.

Care to expand on why this is silly?
Because seriously, London Calling has managed to become really popular in spite of being a fairly boring album. Maybe it was pretty cool when it came out, but so many albums from around the same time have aged much better. I see no reason why it should continue to get the love it does.

i voted for London Calling because, as much as i like Low, i really don't like that album at all. for me, it's all about I Could Live In Hope and pretty much none of their other stuff. i'm probably a minority in that respect though.

My continuing education on other people's opinions. I'm also pretty surprised that of the Dylan albums that first started the one that made it this far was Bringing It All Back Home. I had previously had the impression Blood on the Tracks and Highway 61 were more popular, although I don't think I'd say I like it any less. Blood on the Tracks got pretty fucked being seeded against Kind of Blue. I suppose if people thought it deserved to win they would've voted for it, though.
StaedlerMars:
Like you said, it's all about seeding.
The fact that some albums got it this far happened only because of the other albums they were placed against happened to be less popular.
Joseph:
I'm sorry. I was making the assumption that the members of the forum had taste.
Just joking around. Promise.
