Wrapping up Round 2 this weekend.

Grievous Angel easily. |

| sp4cetiger wrote: | | These four match-ups have been good because I've liked all of the albums. Unfortunately, that means I have to vote against an album I like in each case. Warm Jets is probably my favorite Eno record, so Pussy Cats had a steep hill to climb; even so, it gave me something to go back to, being the first Nilsson experience that caught my attention. |

I'm not sure there's anything in this tourney that'd make me vote against Here Come the Warm Jets. Certainly not Grievous Angel, which is merely good

This one's a total bitch. Maybe the hardest decision of the entire tourney for me. I love both of these passionately, but in completely different ways. I'm going to enjoy trying to figure this dilemma out, but they're both five star masterpieces.

Same. I nominated Grievous Angel, but I'm still not sure I'm going to vote for it.

Nothing against Eno, but Gram Parsons easily trumps this match.
