only if you put BBQ sauce on them.

Depends on what kind of camping it is.

Depends on what kind of camping it is.

There are other kinds?

held- thought you were a big XTC fan.

Think that's an old William Tell list, unless I'm misinterpreting "WT RIP."

Paul, how picky are you on correct credits? e.g. votes for "Iggy and the Stooges - Raw Power" and "The Stooges - Raw Power" will count towards the same album I take it?

[spiritofeden]

these shoes are way cooler, and you could actually wear them without looking like a fuck wit.




know what i mean?

[Eskimo kisses]

Do those trainers look good for the first few weeks then start to disintegrate to be authentic?

[spiritofeden]

they get a little faded, but are good for 25 + years.

FUCK. I forgot White Light / White Heat, somehow. That's top 20 material. SHIT.

Paul, what's the status on unreleased albums? Would it be okay if I voted for Ryan Adams' 48 Hours, for example/

I'm considering Patty Griffin's "Silver Bell", which has never been released as well. doubt it matters though, since it's pretty damn unlikely anything in this category would make the final list.

correct. I don't think I've even heard half of WT's picks.

I'll wait a while before I post mine.

Assuming I catch it, then yes. Obvious things like Raw Power shouldn't be a problem, and usually I can catch smaller things just from seeing similar names on multiple lists.

I'd say keep it to officially released material.

My list! Did this in a quick one-off, no-agonizing session like others have done.. sure I forgot a lot of stuff but this is a pretty good representation I think.
