Consider this also: their first meeting and rehearsal was on April 19th 1968 (at the Nag’s Head, Battersea) and by April 1973 they had disintegrated.
Six studio albums and one live one and numerous singles. […]

It was a practice that extended to my school in Birkenhead, though I never had one of those bags.
I’m sure my school couldn’t have been the only one in the area where that practice was extended.

I think they belong in the rerelease list.
I’ve put Gene Clark Sings For You, which is previously unreleased material apart from a couple of tracks, in my own selection.

I wondered that too.

Not a problem. Easily remedied.

As I’m only doing five entries, which of your current five do you wish to have substituted?

I thought it might be fun to do some comparisons:

Eric Clapton $300m v Jimmy Page $170m
Robert Plant $170m v Ozzy Osbourne $220m
Mick Jagger $360m v Paul McCartney $1.2bn
Bob Dylan $200m v Paul Simon […]

@Paul Wad Do you wish to make a substitution in your list?

1 – Israel Nash: Lifted
2 – Amanda Shires: To The Sunset
3 – Rosanne Cash: She Remembers Everything
4 – Lori McKenna: The Tree
5 – Kacey Musgraves: Golden Hour
6 – Caleb Caudle: Crushed Coins
7 – Christine & The […]

Mr Cale, the man who couldn’t afford to orgy, is my choice.
In fact it’s not a choice. I have loathed Reed ever since I walked out of his gig at the Albert Hall.

Sorry about that Tiggs. I saw the work you had put in and felt a slightly mean with my decision.
But not for long.😜

I don’t think that matters. If they have been given a launch this year then I will consider it as a rerelease.

I was pondering that very question when Dai selected KB.
I think that they should be considered as a whole.
They are available as individual albums or as batches of albums, but given they have all been […]

My own five:
1) Bobby Gentry – The Girl From Chickasaw County
2) Revolutionary Spirit: The Sound Of Liverpool 1976-1988
3) The Wrecking Crew
4) Gene Clark Sings For You
5) Morrissey Mullen – Cape Wrath

I don’t see why Soft Cell – Keychains And Snowstorms shouldn’t count. It was rereleased earlier this year.

On the basis that the volume of re-releases is lower than that of new stuff and the assumption that people buy less old than new, five seemed reasonable.
It also makes less work for me.

I have heard of eight of the artists, but not heard a single album on that list.
I’m listening to a track from No 95 David Terry. It’s simply a drone with some other noises overlaid.
I clearly live in a different universe.

The Waterboys’ album was a 2017 release.
