Re: Poll for Acclaimed Music forum top 100 albums

I should have guessed it the first time around!

I'll bet it was on a list submitted by damosuzuki as well, because I've seen him mention how much he loves Come on a Prince website.

Re: Poll for Acclaimed Music forum top 100 albums

U can find my list at

Click on : 100 albums pour une île déserte.
Jacek, i sent u a PM with the list.

Great poll!

Poll deadline in two weeks!

I want go on holiday in the middle of August and because I won't have access to the internet where I'll be staying I'd like to post the results before I leave. So everybody please submit your lists until the last day of July, which conveniently happens to be Sunday. It's over two weeks from now, which should be enough time. I hope all the regular posters participate, albeit everyone else is welcome as well.

Poll deadline in one week!

I made a separate post, so this is just to bring the thread back to the top.

Re: Poll for Acclaimed Music forum top 100 albums

I'm just wondering, when you say no compilations do you mean no best of's or no compilations by various artists?

Re: Poll for Acclaimed Music forum top 100 albums

By a compilation I mean a collection of songs that were either previously released on separate master discs: LP's, EP's or singles. All greatest hits albums, singles and rarities collections and non-original soundtracks are compilations, original soundtracks are not.

Re: Poll for Acclaimed Music forum top 100 albums

Jacek - I tried mailing you, but it bounced back.

I don't know if I can do 100 by Sunday. Is a top 50 for me Ok?

Re: Poll for Acclaimed Music forum top 100 albums

Hmm, I don't know why your mail was returned to you. It might have been some temporary problems with the server, so just try again at a different time. And you don't have to make your list a top 100, just put on it as many albums as you can. JR for instance had only 71 albums on his.

Re: Poll for Acclaimed Music forum top 100 albums

Such a fine day. I got four lists today, which brings the total to 19. Hope this number will continue to grow.

Re: Poll for Acclaimed Music forum top 100 albums

I heard about this initiative via Rateyourmusic.com, have never posted on this forum, but i do use acclaimedmusic now and then to find new music. Am i allowed to join too?
Should it be 100 albums and does order matter?
And what about notation, does that matter?
I.e.: "Bob Dylan, or Dylan, Bob", and "Smiths, or The Smiths, or Smiths, the"?

Re: Poll for Acclaimed Music forum top 100 albums

1. Yes, I accept readers' lists, so feel free to send me yours
2. You can put less than a 100 albums on your list, although a top 100 is of course preferable
3. As for notations you can follow this pattern

1. Television - Marquee Moon
2. Neil Young - Harvest
3. The Pretenders - Learning to Crawl etc.

Joining...

Is there even a way to "join" this forum by signing up? I have been unaware if there is.

Re: Poll for Acclaimed Music forum top 100 albums

The E-mail adress above is not mine I misunderstood thinking that my top 100 would be posted to Jacek.

Poll closed!

I got 23 lists. More power to everybody who participated, shame and disgrace to those who didn't. I will post the albums that ranked 101-200 tomorrow. As for the main top 100 list there are two options. I can either post the entire list in one go or make a countdown, as some people suggested I should, so let me know what you prefer.

Maybe...

you should do a "range" countdown (i.e. 91-100, 81-90, etc.) Thanks for the efforts, Jacek.

Re: Poll for Acclaimed Music forum top 100 albums

countdown is a good idea.
is a shame there was only 23 list but i respect everyones opinion in here and im sure this fun poll is going to have some great albums, good work jacek
