Vinyl Me Please Classics

It's like a pub quiz the you get a few cases of free beers if you win.

FTFY

So, Roberta Flack sounds amazing as per usual with Classics.
I forgot however how insanely long her covers of "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" and "To Love Somebody" are.
Holy shit they're long.

They also copped to fucking up a previous clue, but not the one we thought they fucked up! February's disco album is the artist's FOURTH, not second.

That's a BIG discrepancy!

Someone's gonna win that money I swear, the fake clue was just to make it more fun!

When I did my N&G thread I almost put in a deliberately fake clue that I was going to call the "Red Storfing" just to fuck with y'all, but I'm not a meanie like that.

No, it's the artist's fourth album, not second.

That is his fourth album actually.

It is their fourth album. Second as mononymously Sylvester

 

[RobbieBobby]

Well, it looks like they might have me back in March to grab Modest Mouse and Lightnin Hopkins. The other two months are pretty underwhelming.

Oh? I guess that explains the mixup between "second" and "fourth" since we were considering Sylvester as an option back when Chic was the frontrunner.

 

[mitchwagz]

That Lightnin Hopkins album is great. Vee-Jay made some good sounding records too so im hoping it comes out good. In for that and probably out for the other two Classics. If I really need the Sylvester album in my collection, I can probably get a clean OG for cheaper (George Horn mastered).

 

[jfitzy]

I am absolutely in for Hopkins, and will probably pick up Sylvester as well.

Still on the fence for Barbara Lea. I’m just not super into vocal jazz...

 

[Fleetwood-Matt]

I am absolutely IN for Sylvester!! "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)" is one of the greatest disoc songs ever! Such and influential artist who doesn't get enough recognition

 

[Ghost]

Might be 3 for 3 on Classics this go around, thats exciting

 

[duke86fan]

Sylvester-Step II

invested again in it

 

[bdrummond]

Holy shit guys! They're moving Classics to GZ?! What the fuck is this nonsense?
