"I've gone through the list and I was wondering. How many of the 200 do
people on Audities already own?"
153- with a further 9 that I did own, but have since sold or given away.
It was also #39 where I have my first gap...
I think the book is great (enough to have bought 2 further copies as
gifts), but agree with Mike and Steve's comments that everyone's take on
powerpop is, of course, very dependant on your own experience and often
age. And for Volume 2 I'd love more powerpop anecdotes and perhaps a piece
focusing on some mainstream albums with definite powerpop leanings...
Here's my list:
1. Big Star - #1 Record
2. Cheap Trick – In Color
3. Badfinger – Straight Up
4. The Posies – Frosting on the Beater
5. Shoes – Present Tense
6. Jellyfish – Spilt Milk
7. Erik Voeks – Sandbox
8. Teenage Fanclub – Grand Prix
9. Matthew Sweet - Girlfriend
10. Weezer – Weezer (Green)
11. The Records – Shades in Bed
12. Superdrag – Last Call for Vitriol
13. Jason Falkner – Presents Author Unknown
14. Adam Schmitt – World So Bright
15. Baby Lemonade – Exploring Music
16. Adam Daniel – Blue Pop
17. Silver Sun – Silver Sun
18. Wondermints - Wondermints
19. The Cheepskates – It Wings Above
20. The Someloves – Something or Other
Plenty more bubbling under:
Shoes – Black Vinyl Shoes
Big Star - Radio City
Teenage Fanclub - Bandwagonesque
Orange Humble Band - Assorted Creams
Van Duran - Are You Serious?
The Beat – The Beat
The Records - Crashes
Velvet Crush – In the Presence of Greatness
The dBs – Like This
The Cryers – The Cryers
Brad Jones – Gilt Flake
Tsar – Tsar
The Posies – Dear 23
Tommy Keene- Songs from the Film
