The list is, for the most part, finished. Comus, Wayfarer and I may go through and make some small revisions but I think it's pretty set for now. Next will be doing the 50s and if we can't make up enough albums I'll change it to 50s and backwarRAB.

Nice list on the whole but Gainsbourg at 100? DAMN! Can't that at least be revised?

[<Cass>]

nice.

I've got to hear Leg End by Henry Cow...if it's better than Unrest then it's gonna be sweet as.

 

[hot stuff! =)]

Ok, we have it down to 116 unordered albums. We're going to look at getting rid of some krautrock because we have loaRAB on there... 2 Can albums, Amon Duul, Faust, Neu!, Ash Ra Tempel, Cluster, Kraftwerk... Might shave off a couple of other prog albums too.

 

[Tomos]

Long as you keep the Serge Gainsbourg album in there somewhere, I'm a happy man!

 

[HannahGoregasm(=]
