Don't want to be a pain in the ass, but... Guys, Superfly has not been removed, but it's missing again. And Ziggy is still on the list. As for my pick - I will think about it, but Automatic for the People is in danger. I'll decide later.

How many people here have actually heard either the Jerry Lee Lewis album or the Nina Simone album? Maybe the key to win this competition is to nominate an album that only 2 or 3 forum posters have probably heard in full.

It's a hugely important album for soul music, and for creative freedom and political consciousness. But I don't understand why it is regarded as the best soul/R&B album ever made.

Probably my last elimination, and two albums I don't want to win.

Top 33 (rpm)
12. Elvis Presley - Elvis Presley
13. R.E.M.- Automatic for the People
14. Prince and The Revolution - Purple Rain
15. Nina Simone - Little Girl Blue
16. The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead
17. Love - Forever Changes
18. The Zombies - Odessey and Oracle
19. The Beatles - Abbey Road
20. Marvin Gaye - What's Going On
21. Jerry Lee Lewis - Live at the Star Club, Hamburg
22. The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
23. The Rolling Stones - Exile on Main St.
24. Leonard Cohen - Songs of Leonard Cohen
25. Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin IV
26. Lou Reed - Berlin
27. Sly and the Family Stone - There's a Riot Goin' On
28. Joni Mitchell - The Hissing of Summer Lawns

30. Curtis Mayfield- Superfly
31. Michael Jackson - Off The Wall
32. David Bowie - The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars
33. Prince - 1999

That one annoys me a little more than Entroducing, because I feel like Sun Sessions is a better collection of the songs he was recording around that time. Hopefully somebody else takes care of DJ Shadow before this is over.

I wanted to eliminate A Love Supreme, simply because it's the most "dangerous" of the three remaining albums that rank outside of my top 20 of all time. But I gave it a listen today and decided that I can't. I won't dare. Instead...

It's a fine album, but for me S&G were always more of a singles act. Personally I find this album one of the biggest surprises of the game - I would say that it's too soft-rocky for many participants.

Last three left I rank #1, #60, and #253, and the #253 one is lower than it would be if I was a bigger fan of the genre. Can't complain about whichever of these wins.

Two of my top 10 albums made the top 10 (Rubber Soul, Bridge Over Troubled Water) and Sticky Fingers probably makes my top 50. Of the three that are left? A Love Supreme might crack my top 500. The other two wouldn't even be close.

I like Songs in the Key of Life, but Talking Book is Stevie's masterpiece.

The person erased from the list London Calling should be expelled from Acclaimed Music Forum

I've been really busy those last days and I missed the final results live. But I'm quite happy with the results, especially #1, #8 and #10 (all of them on my Top 10 ever). I'm particularly pleased with "Sticky Fingers" over "Exile on Main Street."

I would have preferred Jimi or Coltrane, but it's hard to argue with The Clash. Thanks for the great game, Henrik! The rules for this one were perfect, allowing for unpredictable results throughout.

Some great results here for me - my very favourite Beatles' album, Rubber Soul, finally gets what it deserves, Endtroducing.... in top ten... I would be even happier if it won, it's one of the most unique, fascinating pieces of music I've ever heard, but I'm not gonna complain! Pretty shocking that it managed to make it here if you ask me, it's not a "safe" recording. Anyway, great game!

Yeah, it was nice to see Rubber Soul beat out all the other Beatles albums. Beatles '65-'66 is the peak of pop music.
