I'm afraid I'm not able to help you here, but are you familiar with reddit? There's a subredddit called Tip Of My Tongue, which is basically a forum designed exactly for cases like this. If you want to give it a try, you can find it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/

Speaking of front-loaded albums, another one by a famous french electronic duo comes to mind:

2. Sexy Boy
3. All I Need
4. Kelly Watch the Stars

I was massively disappointed by this album. As I stated before, I normally like albums that are described as organic , and Tumbling Dice is deservedly part of the Stones canon. But, apart from three or four other good cuts, there just isn't enough substance here, and some of the faux-country numbers...

It took me a while to give this album a chance because I think Definitely Maybe is bit meh, but after three listens I have to conclude that this is a quantum leap forward for Oasis. When you take away Wonderwall and Don't Look Back in Anger, which are both so engrained in the collective consciousnes...

My best concert experiences have been on festivals. I've seen Portishead a few times at different festivals and it's always been an intense experience, but the moxt extreme was at Melt! Festival 2014. I was stoned out of my mind and just absorbed every single sound with my entire body. After the gig...

For Checker, I think the hall should have (and it might have something like this, if I recall) a list of hall of fame records by artists who are never going to make the hall itself. Apparently there is exactly that, and Chubby Checker's The Twist is included: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_R...

I've been there twice. There's not a lot of emphasis put on inductees. Only the last class gets a personal exhibition space, in a room with plaques and signatures of past inductees. The main hall is where it's at. It is thematically disposed so you could see dozen of showcases about 60's soul, the ...

Mercury Rev – Car Wash Hair: 8/10

Krurze

I haven't been there, and there's one thing I've always asked myself. So I guess that every inductee gets some kind of exhibition space, right? If so, where exactly does the newly needed room for the new inductees come from every year? Do they just take a little bit from artists that have been induc...

I'd just like to cast two backstage wing votes to DJ Premier and Giorgio Moroder, if that's possible

The same with Ziggy Stardust, there seems to be a list ranking it at number 38 that is not displayed correctly.

The Knife – Like a Pen: 7/10

Doesn't quite reach the heights of the other slightly danceable tracks on the album (Silent Shout & We Share Our Mother's Health), but I really like the "I hold my breath and then count to three" part.

I Know the End screams "I am an instant classic" just a little too loudly for me. I definitely hear Sufjan in there, but I don't really see the paralell to The National Anthem.

This mix was my introduction to Four Tet. I think I randomly saw the cover art somewhere and became intrigued instantly. I then went on allmusic and listened to these small sound snipppets and decided to buy the CD. That was at a time when I first really got into electronic music and this mix defini...

I quite like this one. Just a very energetic, raw blues rock song. It also proved quite influential. For example a song by Thee Oh Sees, Tidal Wave, has a very similar riff and was used in a very famous scene of Breaking Bad.

Krurze

There are two artist pages for the same band: Oh Sees and Thee Oh Sees. But I can only retrieve the Thee Oh Sees site via google, it is not shown on the alphabetical menu. Or is this just a relict from a former AM version?

" Tutu (february 1986), a collection of short pieces, was a collaboration with producer Marcus Miller (who played and overdubbed several instruments himself) " This is all Scaruffi says about the album, and this is the kind of blip that Krentz often is basing his rating on (in this case 5/...

For some reason I always saw Primal Scream as distinctively disparate from the Madchester movement, and not just geographically. But after relistening to a bit of Screamadelica to find reasoning for my point I have to agree that it's pretty Madchester, probably even more so than The Stone Roses, who...

The Libertines – Gunga Din: 7/10. Don't even remember voting for it. A catchy little song, but nothing too out-of-the-ordinary. Would certainly not make my list today.

I indeed voted for a Sabres Of Paradise track, the glorious opener Still Fighting from their debut album! Wilmot is a nice dub workout, but I never quite got the acclaim. It's a solid 6/10 for me.

Paul McCartney's song Temporary Secretary has Zolo listed as a genre. When I click on the link that should lead me to the Zolo song genre page, I get error 404. It's this link: http://www.acclaimedmusic.net/genre/genre._s.htm
