I posted this in the 2015 albums thread and have already received a few inboxes so that's encouraging.


I propose we make a forum wide Album of the Year List so we can all feel part of something.
If users want to send me their final Top 10's by the 20th of December (that's Sunday 23:59 GMT) I'll happily make a Music Banter AOTY list out of them. I see that a number of people have already posted their likely final lists so Sunday isn't too soon I think, plus I want to get the results calculated and published online before the year end.

Albums will be allocated 10 Points for no.#1 slots 9 points for no.#2 down to 1 point for no.#10. That is how they are ranked on your personal list.

There's also a multiplier in effect which would grant an album an additional 5 points for every list it appeared in. If To Pimp A Butterfly appears on three lists it will gain an additional 15 points to the points already accumulated for its individual rankings.

Just Inbox me your Top 10 albums of 2015, I'll make a thread and give the albums a wee objective write up (or I'll ask the user who listed the album highest in their list for a subjective one - a mini review to accompany the entry). Failing anybody wanting to contribute a review or reasoning for why they think so highly of the album in question, I'll ask for a selection of mini quotes (if the album appears on multiple lists) or I'll write the aforementioned objective review (provided I myself haven't heard it).
We can have our own website list to rival every other music sites up before the 31st. (Going home for Xmas and I've got time on my hands, I need something to do). The list will be comprised of the most popular 20 Albums that users send to me.

Sound cool?
