Tonight I'll be doing pull-ups on the toilet POLL - Artist Poll #104 - THE REPLACEMENTS Voting Thread

I bought a headache.

LOL @ Karl Malone.

Another 12-ish hours...

I have to say that doing this poll was kind of a nice distraction. The default Replacements vibe of "everything sucks, but oh well" is timely.

OTM

agree

I think voters have been overwhelmingly in the USA for this poll. A bit more so than my previous poll collating experiences, anyway. So I'll think I'll try first-thing-the-morning (my time, Melbourne, AEDT) for this rollout. I'll try to spread it out bit more too and hopefully place it around noon to early evening for most of the Americas.

Starting with albums perhaps...17 hours from now.

So, yeah, obviously get ballots in soon if you intend to submit one. :)

Also: I've been totes digging that Leatherwoods track. Thanks ffc!

fcc, even.

Just submitted!

I'll see about a tracks-only ballot shortly...this ended up not being a good time to binge-listen for me.

ffs

'Nag!3' - my bad - I just realized in my original ballot, I accidentally pasted a 'draft' from another text file. What I just sent you is my preferred 'ranked' 'Category One' list. If it's too late, and 'Never Mind' gets an extra vote skew - 'Never Mind' I guess!

lol this deadline feels v punk rock now

glad you like. that whole leatherwoods album -- they only made one -- is really good!

ffs

works for me, kinda like a rolling pin.

SENT!

Okay, I'll close this thing now to finalise the albums and solo/other stats. I'll begin the rollout with those, hopefully in the morning (my time), perhaps 10 hours from now.

Though if anyone sneaks in a last minute submission for the main tracks poll while I sleep I'm hardly going to exclude it from the tally. :)

wait for me!

sent!

*thumbs up*

I would think you'd get a lot of voters in that one--at least 40.

Pretty close, it turns out: 38

I meant to mention that. I removed the duplicate at the time and intended ask whether you wanted to substitute something else in. Sorry!

Anything you want, I’ll Nag! Nag! Nag!

38 votes, nice! i'm excited for all of this.

re: albums you know it's not that I think PTMM is exponentially greater than any of the records from the classic run. I just think for really the only time in Paul's career solo or otherwise, they found a perfect producer where the whole ends up being more than the sum of the parts.

Ha, that is definitely clear from listening to all their albums back to back. They were recorded and mixed badly in many different ways! Although I don't mind the murk on Let It Be, it suits the album.

38 votes, nice! i'm excited for all of this.

When I listened on LPs the messed up recording could bother me a bit, but now with streaming/remastering/listening through earbuds there is kind of a flattening effect.

Hell-o-o?

nag3, it's your man on the inside, reporting in. central time is 2:28pm, i repeat, CST is four teen two eight, charlie mike

Haha. Okay, I think I'm ready....

wow, almost exactly 10 hours later!!

tbh, such punctuality seems at odds with the spirit of the replacements, but still, i'm here for it

I hate ILoveMusic, it's got too many POLLS - Artist Poll #104 - THE REPLACEMENTS - RESULTS
