Thumped buried treasures album club spin off (1 Viewer)

AIDS CLUB

Only records by people who died of it

Would probably prove more popular than this lark

I thought the album club thing was calculated on what gets most votes? But if it's a luck of the draw thing then one a completely obscure record with one submission has as much of a chance of getting picked as the ones we've seen up until now.

Told you it was stupid idea. "Dudley" (rolls eyes)

Just an FYI - there are only four more albums with more than three nominations on the list, 38 with two nominations, and 313 with just one nomination.

I say scrap all albums with more than one nomination.

No..don't.
Don't scrap anything.

Just let the randomizer do its thang

That's about 7 years of album clubs!

Twice a week then. Once is boring.

Lock this thread. Delete it. Never speak of it again.

I'd keep the football and give them a copy of The Queen is Dead. Much better

Maybe it's good to have a few days (tuesday, wednesday, thursday) when anticipation for the next album runs high before hopes are dashed again by another shite album.

Brace yourselves.

Brace yourselves.

Are you picking them at random or doing the popular 4 or 5 albums first? It's like trying to drag the third secret of fatima out of you

Yes.

Exactly. The beauty of Scutters original idea was that it was one album per week that everyone committed to having a listen to and were doing so because someone (or several people) thought it was worth our time (classic, obscure, whatever). Diluting it by having some "other" album thing going on ruins the concept ("Yah, I don't really do the Album Club thing now as I more of a Buried Treasure kind of guy, y'know?"). I say nay. I wouldn't actually care were it not for the fact that the existing thing (hats off to Scutter for thinking of it) is easily the best and most interesting thing that has happened here in yonks. Please don't go messing it up.

Well said, I concur

First two PTV albums: interesting but flawed, great ideas but not necessarily well executed all the way through.
All other PTV: GPO having a wank.
