Blue Moon Playlist Review Club - Season 2 - Episode 27 - Out on blue 6 - Gone Too Soon (pg 438)

A couple mentions of the number over 5, and I imagine a couple more thinking it, so I'll wade in too.

I think we should try stick to the 5 max. Doesn't have to be militant, but it is good for consistency.

I can however see instances where going over might be deemed needed, and if we do, then lets let there be a good reason for it, and state that reason. I.e not just adding numbers, but either completing a set begging to be complete, or rounding off nicely etc.

For example, an EP with 6 songs in total, be daft to play 5 and leave out the last one, and folk would probably listen to it anyway. Or say u want to put forward a band and one song from each of their albums, and they had 6, etc.

I guess in this one you felt they had links? Either way, if going over, best stick within the time limit, and maybe not make a habit of it.

That's where I stand on it, happy to be overruled though.
I have to admit I missed (forgot/didnt read) the 5 rule but did remember the time limit and I was well within that.
In defence, I tried to give a sample of the Sopranos in its entirety and picked from my playlist of over 50 songs and was quite pleased to get it down to seven which also represented the variety of music.

For me, the more important aspect is the timing for the playlist so it is an easy to digest play.

However, I consider myself reprimanded for my flagrant breach of rules, humbly apologise and await a VAR review by Michael Oliver.
 
Well spotted Rob, I’m really busy at the moment with work and moving house, so I rushed putting the playlist on Spotify and didn’t pay attention to the number of tracks.
Sorry Sadds your playlist is banned ! Lol.
Seriously I agree with @Coatigan we should stick to the rules, 5 track max and 40 minute time limit, unless theres mitigating reasons for adding more provided it’s still under the time limit.
My reasoning behind the rules was that this thread should work alongside the album
thread, we’ve all got lots of music to listen to in the week so this should just be a few tracks.So far it’s worked really well,particularly from the point of view of introducing us to new artists ,which was behind my initial thoughts of introducing this thread.
I’ll let you off with a yellow card this time Sadds as your playlist contains a number of songs most are familiar with.

So as long as its within time limits whats the problem with keeping to your objective? I think my playlist was 31 mins or something like that. Gosh, rules is rules though.
