I picked Sabbath in the festival draft, definitely a 1st-round worthy pick.

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.

"Paranoid" was in my top 10. Great pick. "Fairies Wear Boots" kills it!!"I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."

I tried inviting Gregg via PM but his box was full. I'm pretty sure this would be right up his alley.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.

Some nice choices since my pick. Figures Physical Graffiti wouldn't make it out of the first round, and Who's Next falling to 12, wow, that's impressive. I thought I had a big backlog of what I was going to choose, and I think it'll all be gone by round 3.

I'm sure there will be more to come as we crawl slowly towards the end of Round One.
On the money with the LIB/Naked comment. We knew from the GJ I and the GJ II bootlegs that it would be a better album without the "wall of sound".
There are probably ten or twelve I would be happy to get as my first pick...you guys please leave me one.
Chancellor...thanks for the sympathy. The hell of it is that my sucky job is a thousand miles from home. The stars aren't right.
And sheep will probably bitch us most of the draft.I'm just here for the baseball.

Originally posted by revo View PostYeah, I hear that. I have an artist list maybe 130 long, and now I'm thinking my end round picks may be "Ethel Merman Sings Disco" or a Bill Shatner spoken word album.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it.

I also predicted ElD's Sabbath pick earlier, but I think he mentioned it as his favorite once in another draft...One martini, two martini, three martini, floor.

It's strange that I never got into Sabbath. They were British, they were weird, a favorite of wasters worldwide, loud as hell... yet I never got into them.
I think the comic book occult thing they did turned me off. The devil was big in the early 70s, with the Exorcist and all that, and Black Sabbath used to wear capes and giant crosses and were ugly to boot. And their album covers were crappy:
It's a classic and deserving of its 1st round pick, but what the hell is up with that cover.One martini, two martini, three martini, floor.
