DIVISIONS: Week 7

Here are the matchups for Week 7.
Things get a little different for the next couple of weeks with extreme home-field advantage. This is to give the No. 1 & 4 albums and songs equal playing time and shake things up a little. The away teams will get a chance for revenge in the second half of the season.
Reminder: You are voting for the albums in question, not the artists. No strategic voting please. The voting will remain open until midnight Thursday, Aug. 18. (Please note this is one day early due to me being out of town next week.)

Re: DIVISIONS: Week 7

1ST HALF:
STADIUM
Radiohead (In Rainbows)
My #1 Beatles album against my #4 radiohead album... It just goes to show how The Beatles stack up against radiohead, and I like The Beatles...

Led Zeppelin (Led Zeppelin I)
I kinda find Exile a bit overhyped, Zepp I is brilliant...

Bob Dylan (Blonde on Blonde)
Normally I would vote for Bowie, but "Heroes" is unbalanced and Blonde is so deep since every song is at least really really good...

Prince (Sign “o” the Times)
Not even slightly close...

Bruce Springsteen (Born to Run)

The Who (Who’s Next)
The only Who album I can listen to from beginning to end...

ARENA
PASS!!! The 2 worst albums of this group...

The Clash (Combat Rock)
Seriously, why couldn't Marvin be going up against VU or Young so I can vote for this brilliant album!!!

U2 (The Unforgettable Fire)
I have both on vinyl and if I had to choose what I wanted to listen to right now, I would go with "The Unforgettable Fire"...

The Smiths (Meat Is Murder)
Do I really have to vote against 'Nevermind'...

Stevie Wonder (Innervisions)
This is a really tough round, 10 great albums and the 1st matchup!!!

Pink Floyd (Dark Side of the Moon)

Re: DIVISIONS: Week 7

2ND HALF:
CLUB
Talking Heads (Remain in Light)

Public Enemy (Apolcalypse ’91: The Empire Strikes Black)
I can remember listening to this cassette in a kick-ass Checy Citation senior year of HS!!!

Van Morrison (Astral Weeks)
Not excited about either...

Creedence Clearwater Revival (Bayou Country)
Such a blah round...

Beck (Mutations)

Michael Jackson (Thriller)
The ONLY MJ album that I could vote over Cash with...

COFFEE SHOP
Pixies (Doolittle)

Blur (13)

Roxy Music (Stranded)

PASS!!! PASS!!! PASS!!! PASS!!! I would rather listen to Color me Badd's follow-up album than either of these!!!

The White Stripes (Icky Thump)

The Cure (Seventeen Seconds)
I have to vote against Ramones awesome debut while... I'm sure you get my feelings about the Kraftwerk/Waits debacle...
