7. Lynyrd Skynyrd - Street Survivors (Worst matchup of the entire second round)
8. Jimi Hendrix - Cry Of Love

I vote:

1. Jimi Hendrix - Cry Of Love
2. Janet Jackson - Rythym Nation 1814
3. The Flaming Lips - Clouds Taste Metallic
4. Mekons - Mekons Rock and Roll

Stephan and I completely cancel each other out.

Re: Best Moderately Acclaimed Album 2: Round 2.8

Bayou Country (Sorry Moonbeam, there's only one "female" Jackson I like)

Cry of Love
Despite what Stephan says, I like this matchup. I almost nominated Street Survivors myself.
But, Jimi is far superior and is my only pick left in the game.

One more day to vote.

Re: Best Moderately Acclaimed Album 2: Round 2.8

Division 3:


Lynyrd Skynyrd - Street Survivours wins over Jimi Hendrix - Cry Of Love

Tough match, but Jimi's offering is a bit uneven in my opinion.

My only vote this week is for
Janet Jackson - Rhythm Nation 1814

Re: Best Moderately Acclaimed Album 2: Round 2.8
