A has the better recent five and that's enough for this round.
It's before my time but I've been told, he never came back from Karangahape Road.

I don't see any reason to listen to B's tracks, unless someone tells me that it's some blatant lie, and the tracks are actually by completely different artists. That's a shocker.

A is a BCB greatest hits set but no worse for that. Comfortable winner for me.

Re: BCB CUP 2017 - Round 2 - Match 5
On B's original list, the only thing that really wowed me was the Terry Reid. The question is, can the five new tracks overcome my "meh" response?
A had quite a few things I liked in the first ten. Will A alienate me with the new five?
B hasn't wowed me with the new tracks, although the Bieber song is not as big a disaster as I'd feared. A's five new ones were not deal-breakers.

Re: BCB CUP 2017 - Round 2 - Match 5
I'm going to go with A, even though there's no excuse - none - ever - for Scritti Politti. There's just enough good there to withstand it.

Re: BCB CUP 2017 - Round 2 - Match 5
Despite the most spectacular cupicide pick ever (and the fact that the little fucker voted against me!),I'm still going B. i have reservations about a number of the song choices (M Ward/Pretenders/WInehouse/Reid) but like all of those artists. The Paul Brady was decidedly meh though. Some of A is undeniable (Expecting to Fly/ 7 and 7 is) but Can and SFA always bore me. B has more personality and originality, especially when you see A opens with Elvis (great though that is.

Re: BCB CUP 2017 - Round 2 - Match 5
This is a difficult one to call. I'm tempted to vote against A because it treads so closely to the BCB Cup Canon (even the token hip-hop pick in the new five is cribbed from one of my own previous lists!), but B simply has more to turn me off than on.
