MB Staple Albums Part Deux
 

An idea put forth by Spark10somenumbers6 of creating a required listening list of sorts for newcomers to music banter, by nominatng albums that are well, staples of the musicbanter community. Each user who participates will list ten albums numbered from 1 to 10 each album will then earn points based on placement.

Example

1.A
2.B
3.C

Album A recieves 10 points Album B recieves 9 and so on.
The albums that recieve the most points after 10 or so days will be compiled into one list.
anyone up for this?

now that I think it over, this is too similar to the 10 most important albums for you threat

Not really, your personal 10 could be albums that are unique to you, this list is more for catergorizing albums majoritys like.

well, yeah, we should make clear that we want the albums which the user thinks are the best, not which are important...for example don't nominate "Space Jam OST", cause it was the first album your grandma bought you as a present...

1. King Crimson - In The Court of The Crimson King (1969)
2. Napalm Death - Scum (1987)
3. Opeth - My Arms, Your Hearse (1998)
4. Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream (1993)
5. Alan Parsons Project - I, Robot (1977)
6. Rush - Caress of Steel (1975)
7. Led Zeppelin - II (1969)
8. Zao - When Blood & Fire Bring Rest (1998)
9. Screaming Trees - Even if and Especially When (1987)
10. R.E.M. - Reckoning (1984)


This is an of the top of my head type of list. I swear it changes every week or so. This is also taking into account MB most popular (somewhat).

oh yes, please include release date.

Date? or will year do? this could take some further research...
