About album of the day: The BestEverAlbums.com album of the day is the album appearing most prominently in member charts in the previous 24 hours. If an album, or artist, has previously been selected within a x day period, the next highest album is picked instead (and so on) to ensure a bit of variety. A full history of album of the day can be viewed here.
This album should probably be ranked higher than #977, since there isn't a weak track on it and it was quite influential at the time it was released, but I'm not exactly helping by failing to include it on my All-Time chart — I've got Mainstream in there instead, at #63. Apparently that's worth 37 ranking points, which would move Rattlesnakes up to #963 if I swapped it in, just above the Rolling Stones' Tattoo You. But it would also place it above the first New York Dolls album, as well as The Sundays' Reading, Writing And Arithmetic, both of which I like better than Rattlesnakes. So honestly I have no idea what to do here, which I suppose is what makes BEA so much fun?
I had just moved into a house share (also known as a swat!) just as this album was released and living with likeminded individuals, who all loved great music, I would reckon, half of the ten people who lived in the house, owned this record so you could hear it being played multiple times a day and it never got old.
Fabulous album which. at the moment is just outside my top 100. That needs to be remedied.
