The Album Review Club - Week #147 - (page 1942) - Blonde On Blonde - Bob Dylan

I don't think Fog picked Joe Walsh , Off With Their Heads or Latto , as these are too palpable given past choices of his and his posts on this thread to date.

I think he has been far more cabbalistic on this occasion to maximise his chances of another subjugation.

Cabalistic subjugation? Blimey this thread has escalated quickly!

Do we get half a point if we guess which poster nominated James McMurty, without guessing the specific song?

Yeah, go on then, that seems fair.

And boldly you have , I have no clue whatsoever outside some of those who have told of admiration for a few of the artists on the list in past threads but this is little comfort I think this time around.

I have 10 artists against the same names you chose before you got the ball rolling which if Rob sticks to his timeline the rest of us have less than 24 hours to finalise.

I forgot I’d put a deadline on it. Can’t even remember what it is!

Just got back from Spain today so I’ll start plugging the entries I’ve received so far into the spreadsheet tomorrow. Probably best for people to submit/guess by end of Saturday.

I don’t understand at least four of these words :)

Sorry but have we to pick a top 5 or 10.
No idea on who picked what.

My view is that Fog is super keen to get another win on the board , along with Rob he has set the bar in recent comps and has the added advantage of Rob not being a participant and hence has picked 2 songs that we are least likely to associate with him.

Unfortunately I cannot narrow his songs to a few this time around but Joe Walsh is not one of them.

Well I’m not gonna get another win because everyone’s wise to my method of winning the last time! :) Plus I have a sense of a few but no clue on nearly all. My choices were simply plucked out of the hundreds — nay, thousands — of songs I like as I scrolled through a list and effectively stopped at random. Really!

I'm going to hazard a few guesses but not sure I'll pin all 30 tracks on anyone. Doubling down on Coatigan for Off With Their Heads despite his protestations. I don't know about them being a Foo Fighters tribute band, never knowingly having heard the Foos but this sounds more powerpoppunky to me which unless my memory is really failing me...

denislawsbackheel I have for Steve Forbert for definite and was going either Kiki Dee or Avishai Cohen but will plump for the former as I think Cohen is a threespires pick.

OB1 gave us Black Sabbath and Cactus, BlueHammer gave us Noel Gallagher, Mancitydoogle In Tua NUa..

I may have a more definitive list which would probably switch those guesses around completely but I reckon I'll have a few points on theboard there. Possibly.

 

[OB1]

I'm not guessing (no time to do it properly).

I've not commented on the songs yet but will once the guessing game has stopped, so I'm giving no clues to my choices.

OK, trawling the thread and PMs, I have the following:-

Guesses from: Coatigan
Top 10s from: bennyboy, Mancitydoogle, threespires, OB1, Mancity1

Anybody I've missed?
