1991 is a pretty fucking long time ago

less than 50% of the board voted for Revolver. Maybe BSS just sucks.

Revolver is good, not great, the rest of this list is Epic Meh.

IMO revolver and YFIIP are both prefect records. I love them both.

I voted for YFIIP because I knew everyone else was gonna be all "oh oh revolver! hands down!".

it'd be a little more interesting to see something unexpected in the final polls other than stones/beatles/clash/dylan records.

honestly, Loveless is about as perfect as it gets for me, but Revolver beats it out because I've listened to it about a thousand times more, and it floods me with so many great memories.

Actually, Mr. Reading Comprehension, I don't think I qualify anything on here as THE BEST...it's all merely OK to Meh in my book. Way to fail, failer.

In your post about tired cliche and tired polls you have officially posted something equally as tired.

If you look back at OPA's original thread about this, we all acknowledged how this would end but here it is, stirring up stupid music talk.

But how can we argue with your insightful posts like:

I voted BSS. It's the most diversely great record here, and barely trumps Morphine for me. I really respect revolver, but it doesn't stand as a fave. Coincidentally, I don't really like anything else BSS

I voted BSS, it gets more listens from me than do Morphine and MBV.

Loveless is an album i probably dislike way more than I should because of the hype I read surrounding it. But there is no way I would have given it a second or third listen without that hype.

Tough one. Morphine is my favorite, but Revolver is a better album. I choose Morphine.

MBV, but really I probably like Revolver more.

I just didn't want to vote for The Beatles because I know they'll make it into the final rounds anyway.

Chose Loveless.

I haven't heard that BSS.

I just got that Morphine record recently and I'm enjoying it, but I can't put it above Loveless yet.
