Oh, hey!!!

So are the best selections here going to be folded into an actual poll?

Let's not and say we did.

Opal - Happy Nightmare Baby

(EPs & comps not applicable, right?)

Cree Summer - Street Faerie
Brie Larson - Finally Out of P.E.

this is the only mention i could find of the cree summer album on ilx. i loved it at the time, but listening now for the first time in ages and it's, uh, idk. it sounded great when i was nineteen and that seems about right. it's just the right amount of edgy cheese and cringe to still be listenable in a novelty sort of way (i mean c'mon, the guitar solo on 'mean sleep'? hilarious!). i also wonder what most of the songs are about because they don't really make sense. overall, i don't remember it sounding so overproduced. it sounds very thin and lightweight when i hear it now. seems like the exact kind of music that only gets listened to in "recommended if you like. . ." scenarios.

I know this is a dead thread, but I'd have nominated:

Rosie Vela - Zazu
Bill Nelson's Red Noise - Sound-On-Sound (if it doesn't count as a Bill Nelson album)

Wow – Brie Larson released an album as a teenager(?)

Ernie Graham's self-titled album from 1971, backed by Brinsley Schwarz, is a fave. One album and one single, seven years later (appropriately issued on 1 Off Records (a Stiff sub-label)).
