A.M. Music Club

So what do you guys think about having a music club where we choose one album a week to listen to and discuss? We can decide on the album one day and have the rest of the week to listen to it and discuss. Good idea?

Re: A.M. Music Club

An album a week may be too difficult for some. I'm thinking that we could do that, but not so often...

Re: A.M. Music Club

Ok, maybe two albums a month? I don't know if an album a week is that difficult. I think everybody here listens to at least an album a week, most of us way more. I guess the hard part would be obtaining the album. For those who don't have a service like Rhapsody or don't download music it might get tough.

Re: A.M. Music Club

i like it. maybe we take turns picking? or just pick a random # on the list, like 557 (no idea what that is). sounds good, though.

Re: A.M. Music Club

557 is Muddy Waters at Newport. Just had to.

Re: A.M. Music Club

Right, I was talking more about acquiring the album than simply listening to it. That's the easy part.

Re: A.M. Music Club

I don't want to make it exclusive to the AM list. I think we should take a day each week to decide on an album and then use the rest of the week to listen/discuss. New, old, AM, non-AM.

Re: A.M. Music Club

Not a bad idea at all!

Re: A.M. Music Club

Good idea.
One album by week looks good to me.

Re: A.M. Music Club

one album a week is fine to me
I have counted that since july 2007 (so 14 months or so) I've been listening to 683 different albums
that doesn't include mutiple listening of the same album

Re: A.M. Music Club

gosh nicolas, i don't even own that many albums :s

Re: A.M. Music Club

Count me in!

Re: A.M. Music Club

Cool. Any nominations for first album? Let's discuss today and start this tomorrow!

Re: A.M. Music Club

I guess Monday would be the best nomination day. I'll throw the first one out there: Meat Puppets- Too High To Die.

Re: A.M. Music Club

Bueller? Bueller? Anybody?

Re: A.M. Music Club

how bout one of gene clark's albums (white light, roadmaster, no other)?...don't know why, that was the first thing that came to mind

Re: A.M. Music Club

woo! i'm all for meat puppets too high to die :D it's far from their best, but it's got some good tracks :)

Re: A.M. Music Club

Re: A.M. Music Club

Like the idea...but I definitely won't be "acquiring" all of them. I love music but it's very low on the priority list after food, gas, mortgage etc.

I'm lucky these days to BUY a new album every 3 months. I do however typically have 30 CDs on loan from the library at any given time...not counting the CDs I own from BM&K times. (before marriage and a kid )
