Marley gets surprisingly little favor on BCB.

(not that it would have made any difference)


I had it on my initial list but had to pare it down to 50 to accommodate the poll. I knew whatever I took out would be missed but what are ya gonna do?

I wonder what the poll would look like if we only had one vote.

I would suggest quite different

Yes, quite different

Framton Comes Alive got only two votes. Isn't that the biggest selling live album? I've never heard the album myself, just the one song where he plays the saliva hose guitar thing.

Some Enchanted Evening is better than On your Feet on your Knees and any poll without Quo Live is fatally fucked.
Moorcock, Moorcock, Michael Moorcock, you fervently moan.

Count yourself lucky. It was briefly very popular in my sixth form and I had to endure it enough for its saccharine smoothness to grate. Loathe the voice box sound.
