Hoping someone will choose Raw Power


Ah, the Residents! Good to see them!

More importantly, has anybody chosen Fun House yet?

You don't have to post the album cover if you don't want to Smile But I guess it gives people a heads up to the lesser known ones. Some great choices btw.

But there's 2 in particular that I'm surprised are missing Surprised


10 more people have spots Very Happy Hurry up.


If anybody wants to see the album art for my choices:

REVOLVER (The Beatles) - Klaus Voormann

A nice feature while presenting the contest would be to name the visual artists, I suppose you'd already thought about it Hayden, but it would be a welcome credit.

Yeah I got 5 lined up, I waited yesterday because I wanted to see if anybody else would nominate them (well actually 3 out of my first 8 choices were - Unknown Pleasures, London Calling and Music has the right to...)

So which of these five is more likely to be nominated by somebody else:
Sgt. Pepper
Nevermind
War
Loveless
Animals
Think

Oh well considering I'll run out of spots if I wait any longer, I'll just nominate three:

I have it planned out Smile Don't worry. The visual artists will definitely be credited. The entire thing should look nice. It'll be easier for people to vote too, because everyone's seen the covers, but not everyone's heard the albums Smile

Eggman, Revolver has already been nominated Razz Don't worry.

Still a few more spots Very Happy

Remember, this contest has nothing to do with the music, just the album cover.

When voting, try to remember that.

But check out the music anyway

2 more people need to sign 3 albums up, and then I'll start Smile

If anyone needs ideas, these haven't been picked yet:

Nevermind
In Rainbows
Nevermind The Bollocks
Bitches Brew
Rumours
Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables
White Album
Power, Corruption, Lies
Daydream Nation
Rain Dogs...

...etc...

And a whole bunch of other cool ones Smile

So far, no Radiohead, no Tom Waits, no Led Zeppelin, no Rolling Stones, no Arcade Fire, no Stooges...interesting.
