I have to give this year to Stevie, as Innervisions is, I think, a masterpiece. After that Bob narrowly edges out Dark Side, which I'm hoping getsd upsetted by Stevie. No really strange choices from me, except for maybe BotR so high. What can I say, I like th album.

Here's my album list:

1) Stevie Wonder - Innervisions 93.70

4) The Who - Quadrophenia 50.00

9) Lou Reed - Berlin 12.80
10) Neil Young - Time Fades Away 6.28
11) David Bowie - Aladdin Sane 0.00
12) Bruce Springsteen - The Wild, The Innocent, And The E Street Shuffle 0.00

Has Time Fades Away actually been released on CD yet? It along with On The Beach are albums Neil Young held back because he didn't like the mix or something.

Just a few weeks until we can all list "Kabalaba Bees" with "Art Ensemble Of Chicago" :)

- The last minute of my #20 song was played for many years to open the shows of my band (while we are getting into the stage in the dark, immediately after I played a loud C on guitar!!).

FAVOURITE COMPILATION: THE BEATLES "1967-1970"

Paco de Lucía is, and deservedly so, the most renowned Spanish musician ever. His vertiginous fingers, his otherworldly mastery with the guitar arouse admiration from almost everyone, even from the ones that never heard a single note of flamenco. Like Manolo Sanlúcar, another master of flamenco guitar, once said: "Paco enraptures the not informed ones and drives crazy the informed ones". Or, as Miguel Martínez joked for Rockdelux: "Look what good is Paco de Lucía. Good and famous. Even the people that never listened to him talk wonders. Or maybe the only thing they’ve listened is "Entre dos aguas" ("Between Two Waters"), the rumba that opened the album "Fuente y caudal" ("Fountain and Flow") and opened the flamenco to the youth of his time".
Yes, this rumba alone is responsible for the wide acclaim of Paco de Lucía. Although that legend says that the song was recorded as an after-though at the end of the album sessions (somehow like a joke) and despite that was not representative of Paco's style at the time, now we can see it as the first step to change the flamenco music from the inside. Because Paco de Lucía was initially (almost) a purist, a "payo" ("whitey") in a gypsy world trying to prove that he was as authentic as any gypsy, that flamenco was running trough his veins. But at the same time his temperament was ambitious and innovative in a natural way. He lived as his mission to prove that the role of guitar players in flamenco was not only accompanying the singer. But at the same time he was the perfect companion of legendary "cantaor" Camarón de La Isla, a dream team that changed the face of flamenco in less than a decade.
The very title of the song alludes obliquely to the tension between innovation and tradition. The translation of "Entre dos aguas" is "Between Two Waters" (being an instrumental song this month the translation of the lyrics has been quite easy for me, he, he). The title alludes to Algeciras, the hometown of Paco, a city located near the Strait of Gibraltar, when the waters of the Mediterranean Sea mixes with Atlantic Sea ones. He illustrated this choosing a rumba, a bastard style that supposes the flamenco (Mediterranean) adaptation of the Caribbean (Atlantic) rhythms (that originally received influences from Spanish music too including flamenco). But we find Paco swimming between other two waters too, the convoluted waters of commerciality and the serene waters of critical prestige, although unintentionally. As I said previously, the song was recorded as a filler looking for a lighter way to end the album (even some melodic lines were taken from "Te estoy amando locamente", a hit then from gypsy-rock duo Las Grecas). But the record company quickly saw the potential of the song and released it as a single, being the most successful flamenco song ever and catapulting Paco to pop stardom in Spain (he achieved later international success teaming with John McLaughlin and Al Di Meola).
And, of course, between the waters of tradition (every listener shouldn’t have any doubt: this IS flamenco) and innovation. And it's not only the incorporation of others instruments alien to flamenco tradition as bongos or electric bass. But the main advance for the guitar playing was that Paco played his part a cuerda pelá, I mean playing a straight guitar solo like a blues or a rock player and not accompanying himself, previously an unforgivable sin for a flamenco guitar player but now completely incorporated to the style (just like the percussion instrument cajón or drawer, also an incorporation of Paco).
But what's my opinion about Paco de Lucía? I consider him not only the best flamenco guitar player ever but the best guitar player ever. Period. Don't believe me? Well, just listen to "Entre dos aguas".

I wish I had room on the list for Toots & the Maytals' Funky Kingston, but actually the version I prefer is the US version, which was released in 1976, I believe.

Another great year.

As the Wailers are concerned, my favorite is Burnin’, with 2 masterpieces of songs (Get Up and sheriff) and a rootsy, earthy sound, much better than the polished, international ear-friendly “Catch A fire” with all its overdubs.

For the (very few) country and Southern music fans here , the Tony Joe White (a great songwriter) is highly recommendable. Sounds like a cooler Elvis from the bayou who had never met Colonel f...ing Parker. The JJ Cale album features one of the best session musicians crew I’ve ever heard;

Nicolas, I respect your opinion, but my view of "Catch a Fire" and "Burnin'" is quite the opposite. While I prefer the production of "Catch a Fire" (it must have sounded extremely fresh in 1973), I have nothing against the rootsy sound of "Burnin'" per se. It's just that half of the songs on both albums were re-recordings of earlier songs, and while the self-covers on "Catch a Fire" were beautiful reworks, the songs on "Burnin'" sound less inspired than the original recordings.

Schwah, what part of Jersey are you from? I'm born and raised in Union County.

Also, it looks like Innvervisions is outperforming Dark Side. For me, that's a welcome upset.

If it's not too late:

Wow I'm from Springfield! For other forum members, it's the next town over, and about a ten minute drive. In fact I'll be taking a trip to Westfield this weekend to take the SATs one last time, as their high school is larger than ours (don't know your age, so you might not know that Dayton deregionalized).

If it's not too late to change my list, I just heard Closing Time. (One of the many albums I picked up based on the moderately acclaimed poll results).

If I can, stick it in at the end of my list.

Hope all went well with SAT's, SR. It's been nearly two decades since I sat in the same high school and took them, but I remember the horror. It's nearly as horrible as realizing that it's been twenty years since you took the SAT's.

Here are the songs qualified for the final round :

1 - Stevie Wonder - Living For The City
2 - Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird
3 - Marvin Gaye - Let's Get it On
4 - Bob Dylan - Knockin' On Heaven's Door
5 - Iggy & The Stooges - Search and Destroy
5 (tie) - Stevie Wonder - Higher Ground
7 - Bob Marley & The Wailers - Get Up, Stand Up
8 - John Cale - Paris 1919
9 - David Bowie - Aladdin Sane
10 - Gladys Knight and the Pips- Midnight Train to Georgia

Kodachrome is only one point behind and He's Misstra Know it All 3 points behind !
And there are only 5 points between our winner and the 3rd song !

Thanks Nassim!

I only gave points to 4 of those 10 songs, but I like the list. For a combined top 10, it's pretty eclectic.

And it is the first time for the 70s that a non AM3000 songs made it to the next round, and there even are 2 of them !
I'm not even sure any of the qualified songs of the past year weren't in the AM1000.

Surprised to see Aladdin Sane on there - it's the biggest shock since 'Raspberry Beret' topped '85...

If I had sent a list, surely He's Misstra Know it All would have entered, and so we would have 3 non AM top 3000 songs in the final! But I didn't know enough 73's songs to make a top...

Living for the City edging out Free Bird is a fantastic turn of events! Misstra would've been nice in the Top 10, but that's OK. (Though Aladdin Sane in there just seems weird ... there are several songs on that album that are better, and it's not even one of Bowie's best of the period.)

Mon ami Nassim,

Will we have the pleasure to know which albums qualified for next round ?

seriously this site is starting to

All in good time I,m sure. Maybe Nassim is a little busy right now with his life and/or job. Keep up the good work Nassim.

Guess this goes against your idea that we don't have jobs or lives huh?

One great thing about this community is that we rarely see trolls despite not having to log in with usernames and passwords. Guess you don't see the value in that.

Well, thanks for the compliments but it was only nicolas which was kidding ^^
I'm pretty busy right now for sure, but I'll do my best to give the results on Tuesday !

And we have a tie and I don't remember at all how we are supposed to deal with it !

1 - Stevie Wonder - Innervisions (958 pts)
2 - Pink Floyd – Dark Side Of The Moon (799 pts)
3 - Iggy & The Stooges – Raw Power (425 pts)
4 - Lou Reed – Berlin (358 pts)
5 - Bruce Springsteen - The Wild, The Innocent and the E-Street Shuffle (333 pts)
6 - John Cale - Paris 1919 (317 pts)
7 - Led Zeppelin - Houses of the Holy (311 pts)
8 - Roxy Music – For Your Pleasure (294 pts)
9 - Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (281 pts)
10 - Brian Eno - Here Come the Warm Jets (275 pts)
10 ex aequo - Bruce Springsteen - Greetings From Ashbury Park,New Jersey (275 pts)

At the middle of the poll both Springsteen albums we far far behind the top 10 but then the Springsteen lobby reacted and helped both climb the ladder.

I guess the qualified album is Here Come the Warm Jets since both album got one #1 vote but Brian got 4 more votes than Bruce.

Bad luck for David Bowie and Marvin Gaye who both got more votes than Eno, John Cale and both Springsteen albums but they were too often at the bottom of the lists !

Nassim, I don't think there is a rule for equal points. Maybe we should vote again about those two particular albums, like we did once in the moderately acclaimed albums poll?

Well, if we're going to have a tie-break vote, mine goes to Bruce.

I vote Eno.

Isn't it weird Bruce Springsteen is always involved in these ties?

I'm not sure Innervisions winning is an upset. Dark Side Of The Moon has some people who think it's one of the absolute best albums of all time and some who are lukewarm about it. Innervisions has almost as many lovers and far fewer haters.

So, in this style vote I think Innervisions was the favorite, but in the final vote Dark Side might be.

Oh true, true. I'm considering songs to be "favorites" by their position on the 2008 album poll. For example, London Calling is the favorite to win the decade, with Ziggy in second. Dark Side placed 13th as opposed to 27th from Stevie. Your logic about the two albums does hold out though. None the less, Stevie's win was pretty comfortable.

Eno.
