OK Computer wins 4-2 and wins the tournament.
OK Computer's path to victory:
1st round
Moondance - Van Morrison 3-1
2nd round
IV - Led Zeppelin 4-1
3rd round
Stone Roses - The Stone Roses 3-2
1/4 final
Low - David Bowie 4-0
Semi final
Abbey Road - The Beatles 3-1
Final
Revolver - The Beatles 4-2
That was a lot of fun and I'd like to thank all of you for contributing particularly Yellowbook for doing the drawing when I couldn't.
Thanks everyone.
PS somebody send Radiohead a letter of congratulations _________________ "Its so easy to laugh, its so easy to hate. It takes guts to be gentle and kind"

Thanks 111th. That was fun. I totally want to do an American one, but I have one concern: How many genres do we include? for example, do we include jazz and if so how many albums? We should definitely do it though.

Well I was gonna make a point of putting some jazz from Coltrane, Miles Davis and Charles Mingus in but Im not sure how many more. Ill get started on the entries now and all of you can advice me on i before we start the tournament. _________________ "Its so easy to laugh, its so easy to hate. It takes guts to be gentle and kind"

Nice tournament indeed! Astral Weeks was my nr.1 but Ok Computer sounds fine too. Ok Computer has gone deep in alot of peoples mind!
American tournament sounds fine too but i hope i see more indie and experimental bands like Captain Beefheart, Pere Ubu, The Feelies maybe?

Hey 111th, I was wondering if you still had the results and could post the standings of every album that participated in the British Album Tournament - would be a good way to find good music. If not, can you do it for the current NA album tourny?
