At PFO they did this with Pink Floyd songs, so I'm thinking we can do it with albums. Everyone make a list of your 25 favourite albums of all time (in no particular order), and post them here. I'll count up albums on a point system (each vote an album gets = 1 point) and the top 25 albums in that system will go through elimination rounds until we end up with ASR's all-time favourite album. I'll do mine later, I need some time to consider the matter. |

Also, this might be a good way to get people to listen to more music. Like, it'll be easier for people to vote if they've heard all the albums. So I'll wait a while after announcing the top 25 to allow people to hear the albums in question, if they haven't already. (I know there's bound to be lots I haven't heard) |

The only way I could possibly see this working and remain interesting is if we don't count albums made by white people. |

Is Frank Zappa considered white? He was part Arabic...can he be counted as multiracial? |

Frank Zappa was a god, not a person. Therefore, he is not included in the grouping of "white people" anyway. |

The point is that The Beatles will win this. It's just a question as to which album. That's why this thread won't be productive. |

Then we could do one that omits Beatles albums. I'm not sure everyone here would do it but it'd be interesting to see which album besides a Beatles one is the board's over-all favorite. |

Then prepare for the win of Pink Floyd or Zappa. |

I don't think there'll be too many Floyd votes. Zappa might be a different story. |
