Brian Eno - the father of half the music discussed on this board - one point. Yikes.
When I have time I am going to add the total of my top 20 to see how I measure up, i.e. a higher total means I am closer to the standard Obnerian taste standard.
Yeah I was thinking that too. Its far from his strongest, but its stronger than most of this top 20. I can't claim to be the one person who included it though. It came in at 21 or 22 on my list.
I just did my totals:
18. Antony And The Johnsons - I Am A Bird Now (53 points) 3
43. Archer Prewitt - Wilderness (26 points) 2
44. Ry Cooder - Chavez Ravine (26 points) 4
74. Greg Dulli - Amber Headlights (16 points) 15
96. ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead - Worlds Apart (14 points) 11
127. South San Gabriel - The Carlton Chronicles (10 points) 18
144. Richard Thompson - Front Parlour Ballads (8 points) 8
163. Pernice Brothers - Discover A Lovelier You (7 points) 16
186. Vashti Bunyan - Lookaftering (6 points) 6
202. Maximilian Hecker - Lady Sleep (5 points) 7
237. Joe Bataan - Call My Name (4 points) 1
244. Nacao Zumbi - Futura (4 points) 5
280. Banda Uniao Black - Banda Uniao Black (3 points) 9
318. Salif Keita - M'Bemba (3 points) 10
349. Curumin - Achados E Perdidos (2 points) 13
372. Laura Cantrell - Humming By The Flowered Vine (2 points) 20
375. Marianne Faithfull - Before the Poison (2 points) 12
385. Oliver Mtukudzi - Nhava (2 points) 14
427. Espers - The Weed Tree (1 points) 17
443. Max de Castro - Max de Castro (1 points) 19
Which translates to my top 20 getting 195 points. If I recall Shmoo's system correctly, 50 points would be the lowest possible. So I guess I don't have much in common with the average obnerite.
Hmmm. That's an interesting 20.
