ILM's Now For Something Completely Different... 70s Album Poll Results! Top 100 Countdown! (Part 2)

xp - yes! jesus. por ejemplo, get one discos fuentes and call me in the morning.

LOL. One man's cajoler is another man's, errrrrrr, badger... erer. (xp)

he came in here of his own free will to post!

he wanted to share with ilx his love of Pink Fairies!

Well at least Nazareth stalled just short of the Top 500

And that reminds me, this poll could well have been the perfect launching pad for the Chou Pahrot revival, damn it, a missed opportunity!

but they never had an album?

Live at the GFT - you've heard it!

Oh I assumed it was a bootleg!

you couldve got people into it! Now is your chance!

Chou Pahrot was one of Scotland's most unusual rock music bands of the 1970s. Originally appearing as a four piece consisting of guitar, bass, drums and saxophone, the departure of the guitar player led to his replacement by violin and a change of name to Chou Pahrot. The band's debut was on Nov 8th 1974 at Stirling University as a support to Chapman Whitney Streetwalkers.

Their homebase was the Paisley/Glasgow area, where posters on abandoned buildings advertising their next gig were a familiar sight - invariably with the band's mascot, Freddie Horse (a demented looking grinning horse, sometimes with a monocle) either announcing in a giant speech bubble the next gig or simply saying that month's piece of soundbite lunacy.[citation needed]

The influence of Captain Beefheart was notable in their angular music, wild stage show and in their penchant for strange stage names. Other influences included Ornette Coleman's electric music with Prime Time, Frank Zappa, Wild Man Fischer, and The Broons.[citation needed]

Through the late 1970s, Chou Pahrot appeared at music festivals and toured Germany. They were favourites of The Rezillos, and frequently opened for them. The band eventually split up, unable to gain a permanent recording contract.

In recent years the band have enjoyed a quiet renaissance thanks to YouTube, where their songs and unique humor have become popular again.[citation needed]

haha that killed the thread

I ordered some of the Funkadelic remastered cds I didn't have btw. They arrived today. Maybe next month I will be ordering some more stuff from this poll. The previous polls I did
JAZZ IS LIKE HEROIN TO ME ! ! ! ~~~~ ILM POST-1945 JAZZ ALBUMS POLL - THE RESULTS COUNTDOWN (now counting top 25!)
and
The ILM 1980s Anti-Rolling Stone Canon (FREE PUSSY RIOT) Rock Poll Results - ALBUMS! Top 20! ends today

cost me a bloody fortune!

Took a trip to the record store today, picked up: Slave, s/t; The Isley Brothers, The Heat Is On; Man, Slow Motion; the Ramones, Leave Home; and John McLaughlin, My Goal's Beyond, which didn't count in this poll but I already had all the Mahavisnu Orchestra LPs. Thank you, 70s poll!

nice score!

may or may not get round to listening to the Ohio Players (not strictly my thing), but the cover art kept me very entertained throughout the countdown.

are other cymande lps as reggae/chillout as the self-titled? or are they more funky?

Great ballot, Greatjon! Nice to see you had Blackwater Park and Night Sun even higher than me! I campaigned for the latter but it was probably too late in the voting timeline. Yeah, Chelled's book (the English version) was published just after the nominations ended, too bad. I just learned the second printing of his book is now available - http://www.demonsfairies.com/

I have a lot of work to do going through albums, plenty of Ohio Players and Graham Central Station for starters.

Months indeed! I got a nice list made up

You're in for a treat.

― Algerian Goalkeeper

Currently doing my Ohio Players homework. Think I'll revive their albums poll thread with the results.

Isley Brothers 1970s Funk/Rock Period (3+3 line up)

Yeah revive all the funk threads! Everyone needs the *one*

still seems silly to me to have so many OP albums in a poll with no Chic, no Stevie Wonder, no Headhunters, only one Earth Wind & Fire album, no Gil Scott-Heron, no Last Poets, etc.

Yeah I agree with that. I missed all the nomination talk so I didn't really know the rules but I just didn't understand why Curtis Mayfield was in there and the people you mentioned were not. Plenty of others too, why no Commodores or Labelle?

yeah, I didn't nominate or vote for any of that stuff because I thought it was a hard, heavy & loud poll.

seemingly every '70s miles davis record except for on the corner lol

but it clearly said FUNK on it

Sorry I shouldn't complain, it's my own fault for not getting involved in the nominations process. When I heard you were doing a rock poll I was surprised I could find a 100 albums to vote for but luckily there was plenty of glam, new wave and funk nominated. You can probably see by my list I'm not a huge rock fan.

Maybe this poll will help you check out some?

I've never heard of the winner, neither the record nor the artist. Nice to see ILM can surprise me every now and then.

I'll give it a listen.

Got plenty of free time at the moment so I've kept going with checking out the goodies: Comus - First Utterance and Brainticket - Cottonwoodhill I both enjoyed but my fave for the day is Faust - So Far.

Not going back through several thousand posts... What was #195 and why was it disqualified?

One of the Os Mutantes records? Disqualified because it's from the wrong decade.

I've never heard of the winner, neither the record nor the artist.

This I why I was surprised it won, some seemed surprised that I was surprised, that and I've heard it

Not going back through several thousand posts...

I am slowly getting everything entered with some of the review quotes in a RYM list. Top 100 so far, will publish by the weekend when I have the top 500.

still seems silly to me to have so many OP albums in a poll with no Chic, no Stevie Wonder, no Headhunters, only one Earth Wind & Fire album, no Gil Scott-Heron, no Last Poets, etc.

― wk,

Like I keep having to say - they weren't nominated. Perhaps more of you should have participated in nominations that clearly said funk in the title.
Stevie probably wasn't nominated as he usually gets his token album in these polls

So SPIN just did the 60s for us! Places 500-101 seem to be missing though.

hahaha

I really wish I had nominated more Temptations albums for this poll.

That SPIN list ain't too bad, would just need to swap out the jazz and folk with more heavy psych-prog goodies and it would have been a nice companion to our poll. And add another 400 entries. Is Whiney still the poobah there?

Feel like free jazz would have fitted fine within the vague ambit of this poll too.

yeah but balls wouldnt let me...

Anyhoo the 60s poll (if I run it) will have jazz in it regardless of an all-genre poll or not.
