Great blog post as usual! But the original Peaches album is actually only 47 minutes? I think only the reissue has a bunch of bonus tracks. Though a lot of the albums in this tournament are WAY too long...

Sinead is a legend but much like with Emmylou I really don't care for the slick production of this album. Easy vote for The Teaches of Peaches. 🍑

Peaches and other similar artists (i.e. Fischerspooner, Chicks on Speed, etc.) were sort of lumped under "electroclash" to which Charli XCX owes a debt.

I started a 3 month free trial of Apple Music and that Nelly album is in Dolby Atmos lmao

I was actually in high school in 2000 and watching Muppet Babies in 1989 but it seems like a way more solid musical year all around

Spacemen 3 - Playing With Fire Beat Happening - Black Candy New Model Army - Thunder And Consolation It's probably on your list but Tom Petty - Full Moon Fever is a bit nostalgic for me.

I honestly haven’t listened to Steely Dan all that much but I do think it’s funny that Zoomers love them but much of the Best Album contingent doesn’t care for them.

Losing to Billy Joel in R1 😞

Aja would probably be in that tournament though
