Vinyl Snobs would be a good name for a band."When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."
"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."

Superfly was on my list. If Off the Wall and Songs in the Key of Life were slept on until the late 5th/early 6th, I was hoping that would be slept on even later. Unbelievably good stuff.Originally posted by Kevin SeitzerWe pinch ran for Altuve specifically to screw over Mith's fantasy team.

Damn! John Barleycorn is awesome, and it was on my short list for next time around. Nice pick from Erik.
And yes, the R&B classics are dwindling, but it doesn't mean we're done in that realm by a longshot, not yet, anyway.
And you can all enjoy fighting over Steely Dan, for I'm with Seth Rogen on this one. "No offense, but Steely Dan gargles my balls."

I did not anticipate "John Barleycorn" being picked this early. Great album! If you don't like "Glad", check your pulse..you may be dead."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."

Is Traffic prog?
"Prog" is one of those shadowy words that I'm never really sure what it means. Like "post-punk."
I guess if an album has multiple songs exceeding 6 minutes in length, it's a prog album. Am I close?"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."
