Just need to listen to my favourites again to decide the order of my ten, more difficult I first thought.

I've left out a few which, if I were to vote again next week, might well get in. Some very strong albums in there.......

Of course at least two of the Radiohead albums will be in my ten.

I own over 50 of those albums listed, so from my own perspective, it's difficult selecting my ten favourite albums, let alone the order of the ten!

As you imply, it's all about your current mood from week to week.

[Rook]

I'll put my votes in tomorrow night.

Wrong thread, sorry.

Don't say that, MI5 maybe scanning MOT

If they're lucky they might catch a glimpse of Bill Ward in his red tights.

And I'm still sore about 1988! Shane's passing only makes it worse. Shame on yiz who wouldn't throw points at IISFWGWG...

Good on ya Muppet!

I'm kinda joking of course. I realized very early on that this exercise was highly subjective. The best thing about it was discovering new music and learning about other posters. Too bad it's over, but the second round was a stretch at times. A third and we're really getting into the weeds.

It's the Champion of Champions poll... shouldn't take long as no nominations

64 may correct me but I think it's pick your favourite 10 from this list and anyone can vote

I should say up to 10, if you can't do 10 then do as many as you can but the top points score comes down. I.E: Pick 10 and it's 10pts down to 1, pick 7 and it's 7 pts down to one, pick one and it scores a point

My ten will be up in the couple of days, whittling down my choices & into some assemblance of order.

Had a problem with my headphones.
