Albums and Songs of 1976 Poll

Post by Listyguy »

That was 1976, didn't know who I was yet
A pretty little blonde-haired girl
Stole my heart and changed my world
Welcome to the 70s! This month, we will be looking to find the best songs and albums from 1976. If you want to participate, please post a list of your favorite songs and/or albums from that year in this thread. Only the top 20 will be given points, but larger lists are always welcomed and encouraged. On the other end of the spectrum, you need to list at least 5 songs/albums in order for your list to count towards the tabulation.

The top 10 albums and songs from each year will automatically qualify for the final decade poll. Additionally, there will be 50 wild card spots available to the songs and albums that miss the top 10. Wild cards will be determined using the points received in the yearly polls, with the point totals normalized by the number of lists that are submitted in that year. Wild cards also allow songs and albums with unclear release years to receive votes in both years. Points are awarded using this system:

Code: Select all

Rank Points
1	50
2	45
3	40
4	36

7	25

The deadline to vote is midnight (UTC aka Forum Time) on September 1st.

Compilations are not allowed. If you're unsure about a release date, consult RateYourMusic.com and AcclaimedMusic.net.

I had decided that I would list Zombie as 1976 and King Tubbys Meets Rockers Uptown as 1977, as per AM. But other sources do suggest that they could be swapped. Any thoughts Listy?

I'm not sure if I'm going to list "Zombie" on my 76 or 77 list yet, but it shouldn't make a difference at the end of the day because of the wild card system. Assuming it finishes outside the top 10 this month, the points it receives in big years will be combined for the wild card.

We usually go by AM for years, right? I would think it makes a difference in its chance to qualify because it's likely to make the top ten in 1976, usually considered the weakest year of the decade, but it would face a much tougher set of competitors in 1977.

On that topic, I'm curious if there's anyone who doesn't feel that '76 is the worst year of the 70s. It feels like this weird transition year between the styles of music that were popular in the early years of the decade and the punk/new wave styles that would dominate 77-79.

This one already made the final poll in 1975, so I'm going to bump the rest of your list up one spot.

Thanks for the link, rumpdoll. I'll third the recommendation for Death's Politicians in My Eyes along with Cloud One's Atmosphere Strut, a highly enjoyable precursor to house music. Pere Ubu's Final Solution is great too, but that was already on my list.

Glad I chose to listen to this based on the recommendation of Dan and a few others in the thread!
I’m glad you listened to it. At first, I was a little surprised that you enjoyed it because the instrumentation and overall sound of the music is more traditional and straightforward than other Brazilian artists whose more experimental music I’m sure you enjoy, like Os Mutantes or Tom Zé.

But there is still something slightly off-kilter in the rhythms, and his seasoned voice gives the songs more gravity than usual for samba or choro music.

What I personally like most about Cartola’s music is that it sounds both optimistic and melancholic. It’s beautifully breezy and calming and uplifting and sad all at the same time.
...will keep us together.
