I remember liking Geneva more.


Nice to see someone list Kate Bush, I think it was a decent effort.

[Paedantic Basterd]

If I'm being honest guys, there aren't nearly enough people joining the thread to form a compilation, or generate enough album overlap to generate a cumulative list.

I think it's time to bail on the thread and let it go, if it's alright with you lot.

[Alfred]

I still think it should be left open, at least for the list. If there aren't enough people for the compilation, then whatever.
