Welcome to the poll for the September edition of the Record Club! The theme this month is "I am the band", and the nominations are listed below. Everyone gets three votes, even if you didn't nominate anybody. The poll expires at the end of August, eastern time. I will be on vacation for two weeks starting about that time, so pantsgoblin will be posting the review thread for the winner; in the event of a tie, he picks the winner. Newbies, you are free to change your vote at any time before the poll closes, if you need to consolidate support caucus-style. Foo Fighters , " Foo Fighters" Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, " Ears" Jeff Rosenstock, " Worry." Devin Townsend, " Ziltoid the Omniscient" Bon Iver, " For Emma, Forever Ago" Mike Oldfield, " Tubular Bells" João Gilberto, " João Gilberto" Isao Tomita, " The Planets" Suicidal Tendencies, " Suicidal Tendencies" Santana, " Abraxas" Nine Inch Nails, " The Fragile" Jonathan Richman, " I, Jonathan" Paul McCartney, " Ram" Greg Graffin, " American Lesion" The Magnetic Fields, " 69 Love Songs" of Montreal, " Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?" T.Rex, " Electric Warrior" Todd Rundgren, " Something/Anything?" Pearls Before Swine, " Balaklava" Aphex Twin, " ...I Care Because You Do" Think Tank, " Skullbuggery" Beck, " Yanni Live at the Acropolis"

It was nominated in the Anniversary Club and is left out to avoid redundancy. I encourage you to vote for it over there, because I am a big Beck fan and would love to talk about it (when I get beck from vacation two weeks too late for any unique thoughts).

So, whether it gets nominated or not:
I've long thought that "Sea Change" was overrated bullshit because it was Beck doing something that was decidedly un-Beck-ian, by putting out something straight forward. So I don't know how I'd feel about doing it a second time, now sum-odd years removed since the last time I bothered.

What I'm saying is, sometimes I try to do things, and it just doesn't work out the way I wanted it to, and I get real frustrated, and I only really know of its significance for being the album that put Virgin Records (and Richard Branson's fortune) on the map. not sure that I've ever heard it in its entirety.
