Re: 2008 AM Forum Top 100 Albums Poll - RESULTS (Part 3)

We'll just have to wait and see, I suppose. I might be completely wrong and "Born to Run" might be in the top 10, who knows. Although personally I always thought "Born is the USA" is his best work.

Re: 2008 AM Forum Top 100 Albums Poll - RESULTS (Part 3)

I think the Big Star vote might be split as well. I had "#1 Record" in my top 10, "Radio City" in the middle of my top 100 (should have been higher), and "Third" just outside the list.

They're truly a great band, list or no.

P.S. I also had "Born to Run" at No. 30, so there may be some hope Nicolas, but he will have to come in soon or he's not going to make it.

Re: 2008 AM Forum Top 100 Albums Poll - RESULTS (Part 3)

I was just thinking: In the '05 poll, some relatively recent albums (1997 or later) which haven't turned up this time around, were sitting not so far below the # 35 mark:

THE ARCADE FIRE "Funeral", SPIRITUALIZED "Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space", THE VERVE "Urban Hymns", LAURYN HILL "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill"

I wonder if any of these -- most likely Funeral is the only plausible candidate, I guess -- is likely to be in the '08 top 35?

(Just goofing around while eagerly waiting to see what will actually happen).

Hi Anthony, just did a quick scan through the first 3 parts. Good work and nice way of presenting the results!

Happy to see my #1, Remain In Light, made it, bit sad it did not get any higher. In general, it's a fine list so far.

I won't have much time to follow the remaining 35 today, but will surely look into it tomorrow.

I had Born to Run in the 20's somewhere. I think it will be on here.

Re: 2008 AM Forum Top 100 Albums Poll - RESULTS (Part 3)

I was Born to Run too.
