I think it's been a while since we've had some sort of genuine surprise as far as complied lists go, which is cool.

It was a fun exercise and the results were less predictable than I expected. I think you could do this ten times though and end up with different results everytime if you had the initial seedings set up differently.

I actually think is a pretty good/reliable distillation of the board's taste.

Pixies and Pavement are definitely indie/"college rock" standard bearers, Revolver is an album by the Beatles and Sticky Fingers is 'reg rock' rekkid most of us at least respect.

And, Drinky got CHH and quit the board. Best news of all. Thanks Opa!
