Didn't have time to listen to all of the albums 🙁

Yeasayer and St. Vincent were both very good, as was Cpt. Beefheart's album (probably the best in the bunch, and better than the two of his albums that I've heard before). Didn't like X-Ray Spex, and was thus leaning towards 2007. Alas...

2007.

I'm surprised by the 78 line-up.... some odd choices.

Having said and done that, I want to say that Ever Fallen in Love by The Buzzcocks is one of the greatest singles of all time. Punk pop perfection. 🤤

Even if you think TMR is bullshit, or even if you think it's the Captain's only masterpiece, please watch this video :

I ask you once again to open your heart and let this music in.

Yeasayer
And as the trees grew higher and higher
And the fish began to fly
I went and stole some wings
And thought why can't I?

Link

St Vincent
While Jesus is saving I'm spending all my days
in backgrounds and landscapes with the languages of saints
While people are spinning like toys on Christmas day
I'm inside a still life with the other absentee

Link

Iron & Wine
A girl with a bird she found in the snow
Then flew up her gown and that's how she knows
If God made her eyes for crying at birth
Then left the ground to circle the earth

Link

Alcest
[translated]
Fear not, it's all over now
Let your tears flow one last time
To forever be freed from them
And rejoin the world from which you come

Link

78 is excellent, and I 🥰 exponetially the X-Ray spex choice. But 07 just melts my heart. I'll do a little re-listening to decide.

I haven't heard most of these albums so I may abstain, but bravo squishy for including The Shepherd's Dog. That album kicks ass. Iron and Wine kicks ass.

Abstain because haven't heard much here and really can't listen to them until a little time passes by.

Awesome '78 team. That said, it would be dishonest to vote for it as it is, because I don't know much of that '07 team. Abstain.
