Of course I voted for Tonality. JMan was either annoying, or the subject of adoration because of the involuntary hilariousness of some of his rants, whioch could have been fun back in the days sometimes, but certainly not in retrospect. I don't miss the constant provocation (not that he needed any tbh) that was going on in the hope of reading him lose control in those days.
I must have joined BEA right after JMan left. The Lounge was closed. Ghosts were everywhere.
Based on people's characterizations of JMan, I really wasn't expecting much from his charts so never bothered taking a look. However, I love outsider art (there's a brilliant museum of outsider art in Baltimore). I know that irony was probably intended in describing JMan as an outsider artist, but after spending the last half hour enthralled by his overall chart, I'm not so sure. His purely clinical approach to rating and enjoying albums is fascinating, and his choices based on HIS predefined logic are in fact stellar. At any rate, for someone like me who approaches the enjoyment of music from a more visceral perspective, I found his chart fascinating.
Ant any rate, if JMan wins, Happymeal should extend the proverbial olive branch and welcome him back. 😈
