You might want to update the list as to who has, and hasn't, reviewed, as we're now on Thursday...

Manowar week is over? I'll still write my review though, I'm a man of my sword.

Every week is Beefheart week but I guess I'm game for that too.

Okay, well if you want it to happen we need a few more people prepared to review, so get campaigning. I'd say a minimum of four, so that's two more, but obviously the more you can get the better as it gives a more interesting overall picture of how people react to the artiste. I see 13 albums as such (acc to Wiki) so ideally 13 people, but we'll never get that so I don't mind doing maybe 2 albums, I'm sure you'll do 2 and that then leaves, um... (multiply by four, carry the two, split the infinitive...) ninety-four albums! Oh no wait: recycled joke from the Update Thread. I'm running out of steam...

9 albums. So if you can get 9 more people, or 4 more prepared to do 2 each...

You can review Beefheart for fun too. No restrictions.

TH I'd recommend reviewing Bluejeans and Moonbeams and Unconditionally Guaranteed because most Beefheart fans abhor them, which means there's a good chance you'll adore them.

I'll wait until other people come in and pick what's left since I have no problem doing any of his albums except for the two above.

OK, well maybe we can do the same thing as was done for Manowar week, ie a list of albums and let people choose what they want to do, match them up with that album or those albums and see what's left? Does 13 studio records sound right to you?

Those two are fine with me: no point in doing ones I have already listened to, since this is your way of sneaking more Beefheart on my plate, as I'm sure you're aware...

This was your idea, which strengthens my theory of you being a closet Beefheart fan.

He has 14 albums if we count Bongo Fury with Frank Zappa, which we will be.

I want Chula to give (Shiny Beast) Bat Chain Puller a shot if he's down.

Beefheart Week is finally coming together! Beginning next Monday, July 20. A thread has now been created in the main music forum for your reviews and thoughts.

Anyone else contemplating or wishing to designate a week to their favourite artiste put your ideas here and see who is interested. If this takes off, then the next official week will begin July 27, as we don't want them crossing, and anyone wishing to contribute can start grabbing albums from July 20 once the list is set up.

Note: so far we've had Bowie Week, Manowar Week and soon Beefheart Week. Other than that, all are up for grabs.
