  • Why is the best LZ cover still around at the end of the 5th? Wish You Were Here in the 5th also.

    We need to have a serious discussion here. The classical crew are really letting themselves, their families, classic rock, and the website down this draft. This wouldn't have happened if Erik were around!

    Physical Graffiti contains my 2 favourite LZ songs, Ten Years Gone and Kashmir. So very happy to add it to team "Classic Rock is Overrated"

    • It's funny, I completely overlooked Physical Graffiti. Not sure why, it was probably one of my most played albums from the 70's & 80's. And I do really like the cover art. Nice grab, tho you're right, we shouldn't have let it fall this far.
      It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

        Jeez, I took ABB at the Fillmore and Layla. I only get so many picks. I figured I could grab all the LZ while you guys were picking bjork and hole and what have you. NTTAWWT. I like bjork and hole and what have you. Just not that damned Neutral Milk Hotel.

          If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

                Good one! That was my back-up pick for that category.

                "The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
                "The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - that's all."

                    I considered taking it at 1.03!

                        • Another category I thought of was: Album You Purchased Only Because of its Cover. But I don't know how many of us actually buy records. Anyways, I just picked up a new one today because the cover is stunning. Granted, I'm a fan so I'm confident the music will be excellent as well. I'll post later.

                              I kept asking myself ... do I really like it or not. it's iconic, I love the album, but do I love the cover?

                              Plus, I knew you'd take it.

                                Not winning is the only failure in a Sports bar draft.
