we made another list over at indieworkshop.com

i'm sure everyone will have some sort of gripe about the list, but we have a good time putting it together and i figured some of you would dig what we did. so... here is the first part - Openers 50-41

Contract On The World Love Jam/Brothers Gonna Work It Out is the only one of those I heard on release having bought it on tape at the time and it was totally thrilling (tho I hadn't heard the earlier albums at that point, only the singles).

nice liGRIPES:

1) I really wish indie websites would stop shoehorning mainstream rap records into all their lists, Nas in particular.

2) Please, please, please do us all a favor and leave off MC5.

3) Randy Described Eternity is hands down the best song on PFNO so in that regard it doesn't really work as an album opener.


...Just like everyone else I love to hate these things, so thanks!

not a problem. and we DID leave off MC5... just for you.

and i'm kinda with you on the rap/hip-hop, but we had all the writers vote and those popped on, the hip-hop really trails off after the first 10.
