Freak's gone and inspired me again. So, let's expand the 2008 idea and open the floor to all the albums ever released. This will likely be in the same vein as my Greatest Artist Ever tournament, except with albums. Ideally, I'd like to get 64 albums in, but I realize this might be difficult, as most of you aren't weird like me with an extensive back catalogue of old music. So I'll be willing to settle for 32 if need be, although I could make a nomination list of probably about 40 albums on my own.  As is the custom, all nominations must be seconded. I'll leave nominations open for a while until we get a decent number of seconded albums. Who knows? Maybe someone will find something new they like amidst all this. So, go. |

I'd nominate Captain Geech again, but you people don't know greatness. So, instead, I'll go with:
Nirvana--Nevermind
Metallica--The Black Album
AC/DC--Back in Black
The Who--Quadrophenia
Notorious B.I.G.--Ready to Die
Led Zeppelin--Untitled fourth album or Led Zeppelin IV
Rolling Stones--Gimme Shelter
The Beatles--Revolver

Rolling Stones-- Gimme ShelterThere's no Stones album by that name. I believe you mean "Let It Bleed," "Gimme Shelter" being the lead track. Yeah, you can't pull that on me. |
