Album Nomination Game -- ROUND FOUR

<< < (13/15) > >>

Johnny C:
it's amazing to me that sgt. pepper's got as far as it did

also i'm changing my vote from unknown pleasures to abbey road

JayJayD:
Abstain
Unknown Pleasures
Kind of Blue
London Calling

Hate to vote against OK Computer and the Low album, but the other albums are simply better
(this woud be different if another Low album made it to that bracket, like the debut.)

Indifferent about private or public vote in the final rounds.

pwhodges:
Bringing it all back home
Kind of Blue
Abbey Road
London Calling

Public - going private after all the discussion we've already had would be entirely pointless.

Catacombs:
BLUE
Bob Dylan - Bringing It All Back Home

Both are great albums, though I think both artists should be represented by a different album.  I do think Sgt. Pepper's... is an excellent album, but apart from the time period and influence around it, its not their best album at all.  It's hit or miss, with too many holes throughout it.  Dylan wins for his consistency.


GREEN
the Beatles - Abbey Road

My favorite Beatles album by a long shot; it's the album that got me into the Beatles.  It's just a really great album, especially considering the second half is compiled of unfinished songs.  Also, I do not like Joy Division.


YELLOW
Radiohead - Ok Computer

It's a shame that this is getting shot down so much.  IMO, it's their most solid album.  "Electioneering" and "Paranoid Android" are two of my favorite songs by them.  Also, Miles Davis is good, but jazz is more of something I NEED to be in the mood for.  If anything off Ok... came on my iPod at any time, I'd leave it be.


ORANGE
the Clash - London Calling

This is a pretty good album, but it wouldn't be in my top...fifty probably.  But I don't like Low, so its got my vote.


Also, PUBLIC.

Really? Even 'The Tourist'? That's one song I never really got. The 'great closers' thread made me think of this album b/c it has precisely what I would consider a very weak closing song (it's one of the least memorable parts of the album, I think).
