What's the difference between being "rest of the best" and "honorable mention"?
I don't really consider soundtracks to be albums.
You're right. Purple Rain, Superfly, American Gangster, totally not albums.
Obviously, that is different, as they were songs written and put together for a film and by one artist / band. However, most of the songs from Once had already been released on Glen Hansard's Swell Season album or by The Frames. And the I'm Not There soundtrack is a compilation of Bob Dylan covers, not really an album.
I knew you were going to say something, and I had Purple Rain already in my head as an example.
Then perhaps you should be more clear with your comments. Maybe then you won't look like such an asshole.
And just so you know, i don't consider Fiery Furnaces release albums.
Thanks for your awesome album wrap-up. Well done.
p.s. I might be in Chicago for New Years - will you? Maybe we can share a g&t, bloggerfriend.
