I thought the @bingolittle canon thread was great – and thought idly of compiling some results from the near-500 posts. Here’s my rough views on what the entry criteria are from Bingo’s OP:
Undisputed – suggested, supported and unchallenged
Majority Vote – suggested, supported by more than for any other single album by same artist
Then we’ve got no consensus (hello REM, Beatles, David Bowie etc) and unsupported. I don’t think if you suggested and no-one responded that counts – sorry @tiggeriion and your massive list of soul, but Isaac Hayes at least would gain entry.
How does that sound?
Wow – great idea! If you’re happy to do the legwork, that sounds ace. The original thread became a bit of a monster, so I totally lost track of all the nominations.
Once we get some clarity on the results here, I’ll post up an “Afterword Canon – Movies” thread (one per actor/director – double tricky) and the madness can, perhaps, begin again…
Canon? Only if you’ve got the balls.
