The Playlist of Life --- Trollheart's resurrected Journal

Thelonious Monkey · 12-13-2014, 06:12 PM

That's quite an undertaking. That blows Metal Mania out of the water. I'm going to go bigge...No no no Justin, calm your tits.

Anyway, can't wait to see what pops up. Brilliant idea dude.

That's really exciting!

Pretty good chance you've already heard a decent percentage of that list so at least you can skip those

Well at least I can skip TMR!

You know me, this'll more than likely end up as yet another journal. I can see it now... "Trollheart Takes on 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die"...

Is their a link to the list, as I don't know which edition it is.

I'm probably going to use the Music Banter edition, though if anyone thinks I should go for the "proper" version then fine, but as Justin says I don't have the book so a link would be handy. Not doing this till January anyway so plenty of time if anyone wants to buy me the book hint hint getting a kindle hint hint...

Skinflint bastards! Okay then, link would be acceptable. Unless you prefer I do the MB one?

The MB one isn't even close to finished. Although, as long as people update it regularly and ahead of you, then yeah sure, go for the MB one.

If Trollheart's going to be reviewing just one album a day, we have plenty of time to finish the list as long we contribute to it frequently so that he doesn't catch up before it's finished.

I don't really read this journal that often, but I'm really looking forward to this.

Unknown Soldier · 12-14-2014, 04:46 AM

Are you going to review the 1001 here or in a separate journal which I think would be better given their size?

Trollheart · 12-14-2014, 05:27 AM

What I may do is combine the two, or reference one from the other. Not sure yet. What is pretty clear though is that, in order to allow me to concentrate on an album a day minimum, I will use 2015 to herald the birth of my seventh "child", as this will then be yet another separate journal. It just wouldn't fit in here; it's gonna need its own place.

So from January I'll have that and then I'll update it as daily as I can. Don't expect long-winded reviews like I have here (who was that cheering?); just a few lines to say what I thought of each album, and a note on those I already know. May end up with some sort of rating system too, who knows? Obviously, comment is invited as ever and anyone can join in.
