1. Talk Talk - The Colour of Spring vs. Joni Mitchell - Ladies of the Canyon
Life's what you make it. Stardust and golden, the colour of spring in Laurel Canyon. Getting ourselves back to the garden.
2. Champion Jack Dupree - Blues from the Gutter vs. J.J. Cale - Naturally
The dense atmosphere of the barrelhouses in New Orleans or the breezy sounds of Tulsa? Mmm, call me the breeze.
3. Pere Ubu - Datapanik in the Year Zero vs. Rodriguez - Cold Fact
Post punk in the year zero (before punk). But Sugar Man brings back all those colors to my dreams. That's the cold fact.
4. Nina Simone - Pastel Blues vs. Exuma - Exuma
Exuma got fire and brimstone coming out of his mouth. But Nina got blood on the leaves. Where you gonna run to?

Re: Moderately Acclaimed Albums 5 - Round 4.2
Ooh, exciting. That vote could very well decide the winner of this entire tournament. Not to put any pressure on the voter or anything.

I will listen to "Pastel Blues" and "Exuma" later during the week if no one else breaks the tie before me. I have already heard both, but didn't vote because as they are close.

Re: Moderately Acclaimed Albums 5 - Round 4.2
They are close for me too but my vote finally goes to Exuma.
Re: Moderately Acclaimed Albums 5 - Round 4.2
And Exuma takes it! 6-5 in OT... Thanks Michel!
Quarter-finals coming up real soon!
