Here's the Pazz & Jop Top 100 singles list. Only 10 tracks are missing.

both those links give me "playlist not found" ;_;
― talk me down off the (ledge), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:07 (fifteen years ago) link
Me too any chance of a re-up?
― zero learnt from nero (Neil S), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:07 (fifteen years ago) link
I've just re-checked, and both links are valid; indeed, I picked up Patrick's ILX playlist earlier today and added to it, and someone else has added to it since.
You have already got Spotify installed, yes?
― mike t-diva, Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:20 (fifteen years ago) link
no King Crimson
Eh? The first album I listened to on it was In The Court of the Crimson King!

x-post yeah all that's fine, it says "playlist not found" when the link prompts the software. Ah well.
― zero learnt from nero (Neil S), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:23 (fifteen years ago) link
Yeh, I tried the Pazz and Job playlist just there and got "Playlist not found", too. (And, er, yes: I think most of us posting on the Spotify thread about how we use Spotify etc have got Spotify installed ;)
― Special topics: Disco, The Common Market (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:23 (fifteen years ago) link
Er, Jop. Obviously.
― Special topics: Disco, The Common Market (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:24 (fifteen years ago) link
xpost Just re-checked, and there's still no King Crimson. The nearest you get is "The Court of the Crimson King" by 21st Century Schizoid Band.
― mike t-diva, Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:25 (fifteen years ago) link
Whit? Hang on ...

Try this in the Spotify search window?

And also this:

... fuck me, yes. It's all gone. But there is still a ghost page for them -- put in King Crimson and you'll see their name comes up in the little cluster of artists at the top left. Click and you get a pic and a biog but absolutely no tracks.
That's a fucker, because there was a tonne of their stuff up the other week. I thought I'd seen some other stuff disappear, too -- can't remember what, but I just put it down to not having paid attention. But no, some bands are obviously being taken down. Wow.

Ah bollox, that wasn't the P&J playlist - try this one instead:

Hang on: Mike, are you a subscriber?
― Special topics: Disco, The Common Market (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:30 (fifteen years ago) link
... 'cos I can't get any of these shared playlists going. It's either a subscriber thing or a Mac thing, I reckon ...

can you (mike or grimly) see http://open.spotify.com/user/ledge/playlist/1KqRMynsECGZ0Q4JTJ0sHJ
― talk me down off the (ledge), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:33 (fifteen years ago) link
Yes: I can, Ledge. You Mac or PC?
― Special topics: Disco, The Common Market (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:34 (fifteen years ago) link
pc.
― talk me down off the (ledge), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:34 (fifteen years ago) link
Yes, I can see that one, Ledge.I'm not a subscriber - I'm on the free version.And I'm PC.
― mike t-diva, Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:35 (fifteen years ago) link
Hmmm!
OK. Who can see this?

Works on my PC too.

can't see yours, grimly.

― talk me down off the (ledge), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:36 (fifteen years ago) link
Can someone try mine again now? I've just thought of something ...
xpost ... ah! Got it. Two seconds, Ledge ...
― Special topics: Disco, The Common Market (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:37 (fifteen years ago) link
Right. Ledge: can you try again now?
Grimly, I get "playlist not found" on yours. Weird.
― mike t-diva, Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:37 (fifteen years ago) link
Try again now, Mike ...
― Special topics: Disco, The Common Market (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:38 (fifteen years ago) link
nope. i mean, nope still can't see it
― talk me down off the (ledge), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:38 (fifteen years ago) link
what did you try?
― talk me down off the (ledge), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:39 (fifteen years ago) link
Oh, OK. That's fucking weird, and puts paid to my incredibly simplistic theory, which was: it works when the sharer has Spotify running, and not when they don't.
Hmm.
― Special topics: Disco, The Common Market (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:39 (fifteen years ago) link
Still get "playlist not found".
― mike t-diva, Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:39 (fifteen years ago) link
I've just changed the Pazz & Jop list to "collaborative". Does that make a difference?

Spotify removing good stuff? Oh well fuck spotify then.
― Pfunkboy Formerly Known As... (Herman G. Neuname), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:42 (fifteen years ago) link
Nope: I get "playlist not found" for that link too, Mike.
Curiouser and curiouser: having deleted my own shared playlist, if I click the link, it recreates the fucking thing! This is absolutely fucked-up.
― Special topics: Disco, The Common Market (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:42 (fifteen years ago) link
nope. i thought about that but i managed to get the freakytrigger/popular 1950s playlist which ain't collaborative. xxp.
― talk me down off the (ledge), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:44 (fifteen years ago) link
OK. Another one. Can someone try this?

Grimly: nope, not found.
― mike t-diva, Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:45 (fifteen years ago) link
ditto.
― talk me down off the (ledge), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:46 (fifteen years ago) link
Can everybody get the FT playlist?
Nope. Hmmm! I wonder how this actually works (or, er, doesn't) at the Spotify end?
― Special topics: Disco, The Common Market (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:47 (fifteen years ago) link
Ledge: I just tried yours again, which worked before, and it now says "not found". Have you deleted it, or is this further evidence for the fact it's all a bit buggered?
― Special topics: Disco, The Common Market (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:48 (fifteen years ago) link
A friend in Amsterdam picked this one up fine yesterday:

― mike t-diva, Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:49 (fifteen years ago) link
my test one is still there. there are a couple of questions about this on the support forums, unanswered; if we 'vote' for the questions they might get some attention.

no joy with amsterdam one. it's fucked, is my diagnosis.
― talk me down off the (ledge), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:52 (fifteen years ago) link
Yeh, that's barking: the only one I've ever got working was your test one, Ledge, but now that doesn't work either.
Had a further Google and there seems to be a lot of this about. There's also an entire site devoted to Spotify lists (go on, have a guess at the URL), none of which I can get to work. Aye, I'll have a look at the support forums.
― Special topics: Disco, The Common Market (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 24 January 2009 18:55 (fifteen years ago) link
Right. I've done my bit to raise awareness of this terrible scourge. I'm off to do something more useful instead :)
