OK, fixed. Sorry about that. I replaced with Belle and Sebastian so I could maintain my indie cred.

What if an album was released on an indie label in 1993, then they were picked up by a major label who released the album and single in 1995?

100% depends on how the voting goes in the first round.

Could you further define "I'm" and/or "noon" and perhaps "close"?

As usual, I disagree with Giff on the margins (atleast two, maybe more diff songs I'd pick from the same albums) but I still had him winning. Ryan moves on, Giff goes home. Now I have to see if any other matchups are in.

I had Giff winning on the power of his last two tracks (and ryan perhaps unfairly being dinged for having the same year as me and stealing thunder).

Shit. Noticed that late last night while screwing around with my list and for whatever reason groggily reasoned that you did that on purpose. Which I guess doesn't make sense. Oops.

Cheddz and I are drafting albums in the background right now to avoid this.

We gotta dig through the thread to find the playlists for each match up like we're some kind of philistines or something?

Can a brother get a ruling here?
I’ll switch my album to John Hiatt’s Slow Turning.

I like this list too, even though my 1993 list would likely be much different.

When I started putting it together, I had about 20 possibles on it. Tough to winnow it down.

Maybe I'm biased because it's my late high school/college years, but there was a ton of great music from 1991 to around 1995 in so many different avenues.

Ched and I drafted 2007 albums to avoid overlap and still ended up with another 12+ albums unpicked.

Mr. D and I gave each other a degree of difficulty in drafting so that other than from Boxer, we can't have the same artists. It led to 2 changes for me, one of which was song off Boxer, as we each agreed neither could have Mistaken for Strangers.

My bad. That's the one that should've been off the list. Removed Rilo Kiley on accident, and left that one on.

Fixed the playlist, and the link.
