Let's not go overthinking ourselves here. It's not top 50 albums of all time, it's top 50 favourite albums of all time. On a Hip-related message board. That means, in theory, the only common link between everybody sending in votes (and remember, the individual lists weren't to be ranked, which works to emphasize the general) is fandom of The Hip.
When you look at it that way, it's sort of amazing that the list wasn't more Hip-dominant in the top 10.
About the only thing I'm legitimately surprised about is that The Weakerthans' "Left and Leaving" didn't rank, knowing the love they have on the board.

There were about 75 submissions.
There were tonnes of albums with just 1 vote.
As per Exile On Main Street... it was nominated, as well as Left & Leaving.
Who's Next wasn't even nominated...
Nominated material from The Who was Live At Leeds and Endless Wire... the latter of which surprised me.

I fully agree, I was not knocking it at all. It was good to see everyones take.
And, maybe I will be the first one on the board to say it, but thanks Sean!! You take a lot of crap on here, but it was definitely an interesting month.......LOL
Thanks for putting the time and effort into it :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

some great stuff on that list, the order is a little screwy imo..with only 75 people thats to be expected i guess.

75 submissions...Out of curiousity...How many votes did "Help" (#50) get and how many did Phantom Power (#1) get? Just so we can get an idea here...
Other surprises? No Sam Roberts Band...and no hip hop, blues, jazz, anything? We're all big hosers here...And that's ok.
