Ten Words Or Less: Album Of The Year

We all love albums of the year lists, but I am a Grinch and do not. So - your record of the year (only one, mind), described in ten words or less (artist and title not counted). THERE WILL BE A PRIZE for the description I like best. And the last time I said there will be a prize there actually was, so there.

Wu Tang Clan - The W

Bush reference? 9 rappers plus guests - Nothing but a party.

Pete, Wednesday, 13 December 2000 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Ah now Pete, I'm just completing a review of "The W" for Elidor, and have concluded that virtually nothing on the first half of the album goes wrong, but virtually nothing on the second half goes *right*. That in itself must disqualify it for such a lofty honour as this.

I must disagree with Tom and field with Sterling that "Stankonia" is the year's best album (and yes, I know you could contrive "69 Love Songs" as a 2000 release, in which case it would obviously sweep the board, but I want this to be an album not released *anywhere in the world* before this year.

Del the Funky Homosapien, "Both Sides of the Brain" and "Deltron 3030": Most need years to make two classics. Del needed months.
