Greatest Album of 1979 - Elimination Round 1

[Dr. Medulla]

A Journey to the end of taste? Am I to believe this is somehow critical of Ms. Dion?

To the contrary. It's about a music critic coming to accept poptism and shit like Celine Dion. It's a really stupid exercise in justifying modern pop. If you want to like it, fine, whatever, but don't pretend that this is some intense intellectual exercise, especially when you don't have the chops to present it as an intense intellectual exercise. I came away with my view of Dion unchanged, but concluded Wilson deeply wishes he were a more serious person.

The Slits don't make the cut for me.

Misogynist.

We've gotten rid of them there Americans, it's the women next.

Make Music Great Again.

Styx?

Make Music Unbelievably Shitty Again?

Mr. Roboto has now rusted through his tears.

Without thinking hard, I nominate that as the shittiest song of 1983. A "We Built This City" for lame robots (sorry, Flex).

So Doc gets to decide now? A bit too early in the game to consider bribery.

Only if there's a tie for who gets eliminated. I don't otherwise vote, so I'm just exercising my choice when it's relevant. This way we're guaranteed to move the rounds along each day rather than doing revotes.

Oh yeah, I'm not complaining. You made the predictable choice.

Someone has to stand up for the ladies against the six woman-haters here.

Setting Sons is my favorite Jam album as too. I would anticipate it making it all the way to the final to go up against LC as well.

I think the final will be London Calling Vs The Specials.

There's at least 8 cover versions across those two albums.

SLF and the Jam vs The Clash and The Specials in the semi finals is my tip. That's how it should be anyway.

Almost, sir.... I'm thinking (hoping?) The Clash, SLF, The Jam & EC for the finals. The Specials was produced by EC so one way or another he's going to the final round!
