I once did a hybrid album, fusing the tracklists for Sgt. Pepper/Magical Mystery Tour. I combined them both and rearranged the sequence for the best listening experience. It went a bit like this: Sgt. Pepper With a Little Help From My Friends Good Morning, Good Morning All You Need is Love Strawberr...

Great job.

I feel kind of inferior with my write ups, but then again I was quite busy.

Though great rollout as always.

I needed the extra time. I spent the last month or so laser focused on finishing my data analytics certificate (which would be useful for something like this). But now I'm ready to rank what I've seen.

I will admit I am not as well-versed in Bundesliga. Haaland is one player who kind of escaped my purview. As a THS fan, I had an affinity for Harry Kane, but as for the player who got me into soccer, that would be Tim Howard (again, US perspective). He was nicknamed US Secretary of Defense, and gave...

I can now say I've met a Top 100 artist. Janelle Monae was at the National Book Festival promoting her novel last weekend. We took a big photo.

I see Arcade Fire and Beck in October, so it will soon be three.

I am a sportswriter and soccer is my favorite sport. This was largely borne out of my disenfranchisement with the NFL. I write about soccer and hockey, but given the global focus of the forum, I felt football was an appropriate discussion topic. As an American, I have an MLS club in DC United. Abroa...

I read all about this and here are my two cents. There is nothing wrong with having a little get together. I in fact find Bruno's family vote to be quite wholesome. Though what happened just raised suspicion if they were just influencing voting behaviors. I realize it can be time consuming and troub...

I have actually resisted watching this movie because the praise is so overwhelming, I don't want to be disappointed by it. Though I might cave this weekend.

I'm fast-tracking It's Such a Beautiful Day and It Happened One Night as my bonus noms. I considered abstaining from the 2020s poll as I felt I had not seen enough movies. But I will do the best with what I have. 1) Soul 2) Dune 3) Hilda and the Mountain King 4) Encanto 5) The House 6) Drive My Car ...

Karen ann and Reform Sessions are my last votes.

Song of the week: "Das Jahr 2000" by Hildegard Knef

I'm travelling this week, so I may not get to vote. But I am glad I finished this week.

Kate Bush-The Dreaming
Alice Coltrane-Journey to Satchidananda

Private Press is a fine album, it just had the misfortune of drawing a tournament favorite.

Satchidananda is yet another record I am shocked is not listed on AM at all.

Where did those of you who've seen Bol watch it? I'm curious to check it out What Bleu said, but also I was lucky enough to have a screening at my university. Some sort of Southeast Asian meeting. They served samosas. I went because I loved movies and was curious. Since I was 18 and a bit more naiv...

Last vote is Italian Flag

Was all over the place this week, but I can lock in 3/4 of my vote. Black Sabbath-Vol 4 Stephen Stills/Manassas-Manassas Ween-The Mollusk Song of the Week: "Mutilated Lips" by Ween How The Mollusk isn't in the Top 3000 is beyond me. I can see why it would be "Moderately Acclaimed"...

whuntva

Wasn't expecting Bol to win everyone over, but it was a real eye-opener when I saw it in college. And I do still think regardless of opinion it is a film everyone should see once so they can form an opinion on it good or bad.

Been a long time since I did this, but with the inclusion of Eminem, I went back to the AM Top 100 Artists. I wanted to see how many of them are not in the Hall of Fame as of right now. Many on the list are not yet eligible (to become eligible, one must wait 26 years after their debut record), but t...

Busy week, but I will try to book my votes for two match ups.

Spoon - They Want My Soul
The O'Jays - Ship Ahoy

CALIGULA was such a chore to listen to, but I did finish it.

If there is time left tomorrow, I will try to round out the last two matchups. Haven't picked this week's song yet.

If you recall, I did a Fantasy Eurovision last year, using songs from 50 European countries to have afun setting emulating the real contest. This year, I have been considering bringing it to Reykjavik, but I also feel the format was flawed. So I wish to propose a few changes. The amount of countries...

Alright, now that I am finished, time for me to wax a bit about Dolls of New Albion and why I picked it. At the end of last year, I got immersed in Paul Shapera's discography after reading through a blog. I joined the Discord and took off from there. I ended up marathoning all of Shapera's works, bu...
