I'm assuming there's a temporary problem with linking that way.

"Trans-Europe Express", "Man Machine" and "Computer World" are all 5 star and the rest ain't too shabby either.

Hmm... I'm struggling a bit to find blurbs. Perhaps its a mistake to attempt this before coffee.

TELEVISON - MARQUEE MOON

-- mark grout (mark.grou...), May 9th, 2004.
The original LP faded the track. The CD and the remaster let the track conclude to a brilliant ending, adding 2 mins onto the track.

Television's Marquee Moon influenced a lot of bangladeshis to move to Britain and thus changed English cuisine forever. In the same year, Verlaine also invented the sewing machine. -- Pulpo (pulpopulpissim...), July 10th, 2002.

They were both (singles/albums) mailed on March 3rd.
Can my singles be included/checked though? I can resend...

That might be the problem.. I set up ilx70s for the poll because I'm on the Avenue list at elvistears, and I never remember to read it and anything sent there disappears under a tonne of St Etienne rantings.
But I'll put the singles in, yes... its ilx70s@yahoo.co.uk

Nooooooo!!!! I'm off the hook, as Mark DID NOT FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS!!(phew....I did think I'd just missed your vote..)
But yes, I'll do the Grout 100 after this one. And the 101-200 of both.

I always assumed it was a fictional narrative, which what I always thought all the songs on Blood on the Tracks bar 'Lily, Rosemary, and the Jack of Hearts' were, not knowing anything much biographical about Dylan. But basically: boy gets girl, boy and girl split up, they meet again, he decides he can't stay, and then remembering some time later boy decides to go look for girl again. (all of Dylan's lyrics, by the way, are online at bobdylan.com, although I don't recommend looking at them without listening to the songs first, obviously. and: tangled up in blue.)
-- thom w. (thom...), March 30th, 2002.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dylan said somewhere that TUIB was his attempt to write a song that was like a painting - that wasn't tied to the flow of time..so the emotions and scenes in the song are all fractured and non-consecutive. Its one of the things I love about that song, and most of Blood on the Tracks. Idiot Wind is the same, you're never sure whether it's a historical or present-day song. -- Mat O (winterland7...), March 31st, 2002.

I just said that the album doesn't flow. Looking at it again, that's almost certainly deliberate. The quiet moments follow the shouting, as the times spent sitting alone, regretting what you said, regretting what you didn't say and thinking "what the fuck do I do now?" follow the arguments in life. Maybe the difficulty in defining this album comes from the fact that there's no over-arching emotion to it, and the bitterness is tempered with never-give-up. I certainly need to listen again to be sure that I'm not talking crap.

THE CLASH - LONDON CALLING
http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B00002MVQO.02.LZZZZZZZ.jpg
Clash - London Calling
Nothing in the first two Clash albums could have prepared listenersfor the sprawling, omnivorous sound that makes up "London Calling." Although there had been flirtations with reggae and R&B mannerisms inthe previous two records, the Clash go "all in" on this one and revealtheir entire record collections to everyone. You want rockabilly, NewOrleans funk, disco? It's all in here. But what is important topoint out is that the genre-hopping on "London Calling" never soundsforced or self-indulgent, like it would on "Sandinista." Rather, theClash's way of paying tribute to their influences was the mosttime-honored way—that is, drinking deeply from the variegated cup ofpopular music and coming up with something uniquely their own.

x-post Alba Station to Station was number 62.Mark, I think Marquee Moon would have made number 2 with your votes included - but I'll go away and add them up properly.
101-200 coming up..
