Were live releases allowed? This is going to make things difficult for me.
yes - though I don't recall any discussion of going the bootleg live performance route - but definitely "live" albums are allowed. It's a slight cheat code if you wanted to use it as a "kind of top hits" collection since those are NOT allowed (so long Squeeze "Singles")
I know you’re probably half-joking, but they didn’t play in Poughkeepsie in 1972 - one could certainly make a case for Europe ‘72 here though.Were live releases allowed? This is going to make things difficult for me.

I think the gist is if it was a commercially distributed live album it’s of but Grateful Dead live in Poughkeepsie Oct 3rd 1972 probably shouldn’t be included
Damn now there’s one I probably would have included on well
Live albums are allowed - my preference is no “greatest hits” live albums and more time and place live albums (someone already mentioned Frampton Comes Alive and KISS Alive!) but I’m not policing it.
If people want to take some obscure “bootleg”, it’s not likely to make the top 300 anyway.

Wonder who this could be? I could try to guess, with a little help from my friends. Or maybe I should just let it be.

The thing with Zep is they have six almost no-brainers (edit: although I think only 2 made my list), and two more that could also sneak in. The others have a strong 4-5. Zep simply have more classic "albums".

Also, that could mean one person put in 7 albums, so it just takes one suprfan.

Floyd or Beatles imo I think Floyd though. much more diverse musical progression. Beatles were basically a boy band that started to rock out
I disagree with this take so much I don't even know where to start.No way it’s zeppelin they are terrible

Terrible probably isn’t fair to Zeppelin they were a talented group of musicians and one of the best at ripping off Blues artists, but I could easily live my life without ever hearing Robert Plant sing againBumping up my Beatles and Zeppelin selections to troll Lambskin…I disagree with this take so much I don't even know where to start.No way it’s zeppelin they are terrible

no, he wants it via smail mailHow do I submit my list? If there is a Google sheet, can someone provide the link? Or do I just send the list to @Dr. Octopus ? I have my list ready and I want to submit so I can stop tweaking it.![]()

A new album takes over at #1 (without being ranked #1 by any submitter - but chose by 9 people)
My son’s middle school graduation and my wife’s birthday are this week, and then I go on a business trip. Don’t expect to have my list ready until after I return on 6/24.We are two weeks away from the submission deadline. Let's get some lists in.
God I hope it’s not Fleetwood MacA new album takes over at #1 (without being ranked #1 by any submitter - but chose by 9 people)
With the 19th list in, this album further it's lead with it's first 70 pointer selection.

Was thinking about this a little while ago and I think that the bottom half of this will be much more interesting since we know the top 100 will be dominated by Zepplin and The Beatles and the like. I'm much more interested in the non chalk that will make this.
Thanks for the shout out.Was thinking about this a little while ago and I think that the bottom half of this will be much more interesting since we know the top 100 will be dominated by Zepplin and The Beatles and the like. I'm much more interested in the non chalk that will make this.
Right now from 160-300 there's a lot of albums that only appear on one list. Three people have listed an album as #1 overall (70 points) that no one else has listed and those three albums are still in the Top 160. Any album someone has picked in their Top 15 is holding onto the Top 300.
Yes, there is a lot of chalk in the Top 50/100 or so - lots of Beatles, Zeppelin, Floyd etc. - but there's also albums that don't generally show up on lists of top albums - and there's still intrigue as to which albums will finish Top 10.
Also there's a reason why chalk is chalk - the television list was much more chalkier (everyone knew what the Top 10 would be for the most part) which stands to reason since there's so so so many more albums than TV shows.
@John Maddens Lunchbox - this may encourage you to add a list.
You'll have one from me, but no promises when. Was on vacation 5/30-6/8, off site 3 days last week, 4 days this week, at least 3 days next, weekday evening baseball games, and (long) weekend's spent between golf, fundraisers, and lake living in between. Maybe I'll free up during next week's heat waveWe are two weeks away from the submission deadline. Let's get some lists in.
I was at 70 albums. Then I was listening to a playlist and realised that I had a major omission. Now I'm at 71. Arrgh!We are two weeks away from the submission deadline. Let's get some lists in.

Is it too late to make a change? Heard a song on the way to work today that reminded me of an album I should have on my list.we know the top 100 will be dominated by Zepplin and The Beatles and the like
With 20 lists in - I wouldn't say the top 100 was dominated by those bands but the Top 20 does have a lot of Beatles, Floyd and Zeppelin.
After the Top 20. those bands hardly appear at all. As of now the Top 100 is pretty diverse.
Chalkiest lists so far:
@jwb - 58 albums in the Top 300
@ConstruxBoy - 14 albums in the Top 25
831 total albums submitted so far - 582 of them are unique to only one list

Down to 78 albums by readjusting to 1 album per artist. Not sure I will stick with this but I am finding this extremely difficult. Everytime I try to do some adjusting, I get stuck pretty quick.
