The Chorus.Fm Users Definitive Albums List • Page 2

what is our stance on compilations/best ofs?

 

make a list? don't mind if i do.

 

they are for cowards.

 

fair enough, I was just thinking for less album oriented artists I would want to represent but I suppose that might go against the point of an *albums* list

 

might limit it to one per artist due to the nature of the game we’re playing here

 

Ultimately, I’d say that’s your call.

 

does it have to be ranked

 

sure I COULD take up 6 spots with Thursday's entire discography, but im not going to.

 

Gonna try and jump in on this

 

Yes, scoring will depend on rankings it looks like.

 

I think it has to be something like Singles Gone Steady or Legend where it's been on these sorts of lists before

 

great idea count me in

 

Count me in. Two weeks minimum... I feel like I’ll through a couple iterations.

 

impossible to achieve but will put together something

 

this is my plan, I think

 

plot twist, jason gets banned for putting NINE in the top 50

 

Will do my best!

 

yes please, any and everyone on this site should participate

 

oasis masterplan? sure put it on

 

yes this is pretty much the one requirement haha

 

no rules, eh?




hope y'all like justin vernon

 

I'm a "no" on compilations but how do we feel about live albums.

 

What percentage of @zmtr's list will be Bon Iver, Volcano Choir, DeYarmond Edison, or other assorted Justin Vernon projects? Over or under 10/50?

 

if you’re banning one, choosing the other is pretty wacky. the argument for both should be “are there new songs” (oasis compilation is a lot of stuff that was pretty much impossible to get otherwise/live at leeds and time fades away both have songs on no other the who/neil young albums).

 

I see that (I'm not saying they should be banned, just that I'm not into it) but at the same time live albums are not just old, already recorded songs that we've already heard...they're interpretations of those songs, sometimes with something new, sometimes with different arrangements, different instrumentation, solos that are placed in a specific order. To me, live albums have more of a case than greatest hits.
