Halftime shows were so different back in the day - a variety show oriented around a theme rather than a show focused on a blockbuster headliner. The last theme year was 2004. No one's mentioned Grambling State University Marching Band yet, which performed in a record 6 shows.

Anyway, definitely either To Pimp A Butterfly or Good Kid, M.A.A.D City in my book - 2 of the best albums of all time.

Oh yeah Kendrick is great.

Anita Bryant, who appeared at Super Bowl V, made 32 albums, and Up With People (SB's V, IX, X, XIV, and XVI) made 40 albums, and BEA doesn't list a single one of them. (I mean, obviously, but I'm just sayin'.)

We do have this, though (SB XIII):

Gramacks International
Ou Pa Bon Cauchemard (1976)

They're from Dominica (not to be confused with the Dominican Republic). If you tried to book a band like this for a Super Bowl halftime show today, I suspect the fascists would be extremely unhappy.
