I'm having fun playing album survivor on the other thread. Gives me an excuse to listen to and really focus on some albums in Overall Assessment mode.

I was thinking the other day about what will be the Final Five albums, and how much predictive consensus there would be among forum members (probably not much!). So what do you think will be the Final Five? I worried a bit that this exercise might actually influence the voting, as people might cast votes in such a way as to match their predictions...but I would rather vote for my favorites than be able to say, "See, I was right!", so here goes:

(18 albums remaining)

Surfer Rosa
Doolittle
Teenager of the Year
Dog in the Sand
Bluefinger


DITS would not be in my Final Five, but I sense a lot of love for that one.
Bluefinger is probably wishful thinking.
I noted how many albums were left when the prediction was made...when we get down to 6 albums left, prescient prognostication will be a lot easier!

Had the same idea Neptune, thanks for starting the thread!

I honestly don't even know what to think. Even in the two lists of you and danjersey there is only one album in common.

Hmmm... so basically a "What's your Top 5" thread. Highly relevant given how things are heating up over on the survivor thread.

I'll take a swag at it, but it in no way reflects how I might vote, or even what my list might be if you asked me again tomorrow or next week.

In chronological order:

Doolittle
Trompe
TOTY
DITS
Bluefinger


I had a bad reaction to your public hobby writings.

The most satisfying listens - not too short, nothing to skip, not played out (sorry Doolittle!).
