And I also just realized that it’ll be the yuletide season at some point in Cabinville so give me whatever Kelly Clarkson’s Xmas album is. UNDERNEATH THE TREEEEEEEE.

Gatlinburg is weird af. I’m covered in mud. Bye.
Just a suggestion, Ryan - Elvis' iconic album. (The Clash's London Calling cover is an homage.)

Nice! And, Sonny will then play lead guitar during John Hiatt's set!

Oh man been so long since I last picked. Excitement for the other options I had last round has lessened, and then I heard a song yesterday and thought to myself - "self, I really like that song and the album has some other great songs and..."

It’s a toss up between this and Tago Mago. I’m choosing Ege Bamyasi because this was the LP that intro’d me to the band.

I wore this album (yes, vinyl) out as a kid. This was the first acapella group I was introduced to, and I'm still kind of a sucker for the genre. Saw them in concert when I believe they opened for Ray Charles? Not sure if I'm conflating the two events.. But they were fucking amazing live.

With the 314th pick in this motherfucking draft, NLFC selects...
