  • So if it's a live album, but most if not all the material was never released on another album before, then for our purposes it's not considered a live album?
    That was just a suggestion to break the impasse rather than a rule declaration.

    I imagine the pick will stand, so we need some sort of clarification.

    • I change - pick is good - because it is new material - even though it is really a live album

      • So in the end, the only loser is Chancellor. Sorry buddy.

          Just as live albums of new material were allowed in the 80s/90s draft, they should be allowed in this one.
          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.

            How can we allow the pick but not let Chance have it?

              But would it count as our only live album pick? Or just as a regular album?

                Regular.

                • Nice to see Bowie atop the leader board where he belongs... and at least three more draft-worthy albums.

                    Why? See Gaffer's post on the previous page.

                      Yeah he belongs ahead of Zeppelin I guess in this draft since he has so many eligible albums and the Bowie love is strong with these ones (Yoda imitation) he will rule the draft.

                        It'll be interesting how many more Zep are picked. Bowie also won the 80s/90s H2H 2-0

                        • Bucky - you continue to destroy me. Dead Boys and Big Star. Ugh!!! When I was slotting Big Star on my list I said to myself "how do I grab this one before Bucky does?"

                            It's OK, while I'd love to have had it it's a lot simpler to move on. I'm OK with that.
                            I'm just here for the baseball.

                              If a majority of the album's tracks were recorded out of the studio, in a music venue, it is a live album. I can't give examples one way or another without screwing up the "don't mention it" rule.

                              Thus let it be done.

                              Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?

                              • I'm happy to give this to Chancellor, but we have to hear from him first, I guess. Or offer recompense through an eighth-round pick, which will of course mean my real live album pick will indeed be "Ethel Merman Sings the Yardbirds."
