I cast a quixotic vote to save Walrus, which will lose (and probably deservedly so, but I like what I like)

Only one winner here and it's not Walrus.

Two fantastic tracks but one of them is arguably the greatest Beatles song, and one that supposedly caused Brian Wilson to pull over to the side of the road because he'd finally heard the sounds that had been in his subconscious.

Yeah, Walrus is pretty great.

Maybe super fat, reclusive Brian would have identified, but not then, not yet. :shifty:

I just straight up prefer the feel of Walrus. It's more the kind of music I like. I think that the conceptual criticisms as levelled at Penny Lane also apply to SFF, though not musically obviously.
