| The Music Board's top ten albums of 2012 -- Voting Thread Posted by Baloo OK, I’ve waited a few weeks so we could all listen to the last purchases of the year, so now it is time for the Music Board’s albums of the year. A list of albums released in 2012 is available here:  on 1/15 at 9:49 amLINK Now, if you want to just submit a top ten list, ranked 1-10, that is fine. I will give the #1 album on the list 10 points, then #2 9 points, and so on. If you add up the points, that means there are 55 points on a standard 1-10 top ten list. So, I give you the option of assigning those 55 however you like, with some caveats: -- The most points you can give an album is 15 points. -- The most albums you may rank is 15. I don’t want to go through a bunch of lists of 55 albums, all receiving 1 point. Please vote in this thread, and I’ll leave voting open until at least Friday, January 25th. I might extend voting if I feel like it. One ballot per user. Reply • Back to Top |
| FWIW, that link doesn't have anywhere near every cd released this year. not that I have a better link...but Alabama Shakes isn't on there, nor is Dr. John. and that's just a start. eta my votes: 1) Jack White - Blunderbuss (15 points) 2) Alabama Shakes - Boys and Girls (5 points) 3) Bruce Springsteen - Wrecking Ball (5 points) 4) Norah Jones - Little Broken Hearts (5 points) 5) Mumford and Sons - Babel (5 points) 6) Gary Clark Jr. - Blak and Blu (5 points) 7) Dr. John - Locked Down (5 points) 8) Punch Brothers - Who's Feeling You Now (5 points) 9) The Avett Brothers - The Carpenter (5 points) This post was edited on 1/15 at 11:50 am Reply • Back to Top |
| It's the best I could find for a refresher. But yeah, Alabama Shakes is a 2012 release. Reply • Back to Top |
| 1) Punch Brothers - Who's Feeling Young Now (15) 2) Miike Snow - Happy to you (10) 3) Dr. John - Locked Down - (10) 4) The Shins - Port of Morrow (8) 5) Die Antwoord - Ten$Ion (7) 6) Bruno Mars - Unorthodox Jukebox (4) That's all I have.
