LET'S GET IT ON! It's the ~~~ 1970s SOUL ALBUMS POLL ~~~ NOMINATIONS AND CAMPAIGNING THREAD

On the other hand, larger ballots might mean boring results. Don't know.

Yeah, larger ballots mean people will put consensus "classic albums" in the lower ranks instead of just listing their personal favourites... And with votes from everyone the consensus albums will rise to the top, and #1 will probably be "What's Going On", which does sound boring (and wrong).

Well, that happens with every big poll: the bottom 75% is usually much more interesting than the top 25%. And by having a minimum of 25, the people who only own five classic soul albums won't be able to vote.

I'm going to set up the voting form right now. Nominations close in less than an hour!

It's going to happen... Here's the

PEOPLE... HOLD ON. It's the ~~~ ILM 1970s SOUL/FUNK/DISCO ALBUMS POLL ~~~ results thread!

I know there were only a handful of original members there, but I really enjoyed the Valentines Soul Jam concert I saw February 12th with the Stylistics, Dramatics, Harold Melvin's Blue Notes, and Intruders. Oh I got there a bit late and missed Cuba Gooding Sr.

Some great falsetto, harmonies and group choreographed dance moves. Stylistics and Blue Notes were the most impressive.

TRAX POLL

After the emo poll is done, OK?
