  - I also had albums for sure that I liked songs from but I wouldn't put the whole album up (REM for example) in the top 7 -- nm - kilboooooo 👻 Oct 13, 09:22 2
    - that happened a lot to me as well. very few albums I'd play front to back - at any period. -- nm - Pippy's Brew Oct 13, 09:26 1

        glad to be of service. -- nm - mafic Oct 13, 09:15
  - Paul's Boutique didn't make the list because Krusty didn't pay attention and help me nominate them. -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Oct 13, 09:01 2
    - It also didn’t make the list because I nominated License to Ill due to it being likely most people’s introduction to the Beastie Boys. - Qale Oct 13, 09:24
    - I stepped away from ST for a couple of hours and the nominations were closed. I never saw the post to vote before it was already closed -- nm - Krusty The Anarchist Oct 13, 09:06
