i assume these picks aren't all necessarily JF's favorite by the artist so much as something he liked and wanted to write about?

Ultimately torn between KLF and YMG.

dope list! you should just do some tiny little 1-2 sentence blurbs. or is that played out?

I may throw some blurbs at particular albums, but not all 1001 of them.

So far, they all actually are my favorites by the artist.

I know what you're saying, though: "Johnny Fever, how is Flesh + Blood your favorite Roxy Music album? That's insane." Yes, it's insane, but it's the case.

so when are you making a playlist/mixtape of your favorite cuts?

choom gangnam style (get bent), Monday, 27 August 2012 02:29 (eleven years ago) link

I'll probably do Spotify playlists 100 at a time (some of the stuff isn't on there, but a lot is).

NASCAR, surfing, raising chickens, owning land (zachlyon), Monday, 27 August 2012 17:37 (eleven years ago) link

Sort of torn between

Bobbi Humphrey, Blacks and Blues (1973)
Utah Saints, Utah Saints (1992)

I hope at least one person votes for Utah Saints. I already copped upthread to that being the only album on the list so far I would consider a questionable recommendation, but I love it so much I'm gonna recommend it anyway.

Between The Cure and Portishead. Going with The Cure.

i think my tastes are relatively close to j. fever's <3

these polls are ridiculous tho -- one out of 50 is madness

mookieproof, Wednesday, 29 August 2012 00:54 (eleven years ago) link

one out of 50 is madness

true, but since there will eventually be 1001, I'd be clogging up the board with polls of just 20 or so.

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 29 August 2012 02:08 (eleven years ago) link

one year passes...

Man, I totally gave up on this in the 200s. I need to finish it up someday, WITH blurbs.
