Greatest Hits [Atlantic, 1976]

Although four of these songs have gone top twenty here, the title commemorates the band's conquest of such places as West Germany and Costa Rica, where Abba's Europop is the biggest thing since the Beazosmonds. Americans with an attraction to vacuums, late capitalism, and satellite TV adduce Phil Spector and the Brill Building Book of Hooks in Abba's defense, but the band's real tradition is the advertising jingle, and I'm sure their disinclination to sing like Negroes reassures the Europopuli. Pervasive airplay might transform what is now a nagging annoyance into an aural totem. It might also transform it into an ashtray. God bless America, we're not likely to find out which. C+

Arrival [Atlantic, 1977]

Since this is already the best-selling group in the universe, I finally have an answer when people ask me to name the Next Big Thing. What I wonder is how we can head them off at the airport. Plan A: Offer Bjorn and Benny the leads in Beatlemania (how could they resist the honor?) and replace them with John Phillips and Denny Doherty. Plan B: Appoint Bjorn head of the U.N. and Benny his pilot (or vice versa) and replace them with John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Plan C: Overexpose them in singing commercials. Plan D: Institute democratic socialism in their native land, so that their money lust will meet with the scorn of their fellow citizens. C

Greatest Hits Vol. 2 [Atlantic, 1979]

Fourteen cuts, close to an hour of polyvinyl chloride, and only two of 'em made U.S. top ten. We have met the enemy and they are them. C

I could never get into The Magnetic Fields. Tried listening to 69 Love Songs and was bored out of my mind.

>>73968962
69 Love Songs has some of their best songs but unfortunately a third of it is filler. You should try some one of their shorter, more cohesive albums such as Get Lost and Charm of The Highway Strip if you haven't

hi

>>73968562
Since this entire board became a meme for normies

>>73968562
didn't read lamo

Biggest problems I've noticed are grimesfags (admittedly though, that don't seem as active outside of their generals anymore). That anti Grimes spam like a week account seemed to have a decent effect.

People are also posting mainstream releases in the sharethreads for some reason. And people are taking Spotify seriously.

>>73968377
how can one man be this right?

This is weird bait because you delete the 3 best tracks but also the worst track (GOD.) so I dno man w/e

>deletes entire album
You're welcome guys.

>>73968313
Just saw them in Philly. They were unreal.

just saw them play in a sweaty basement a week ago or so. great show, great band. Best Buds is a great album, and i'm not normally one to get into much emo music.

>>73968338
i literally listen to this album every day. idk what it is but it's just a beautiful record.

>rap song starts with the rap man shouting "YOU ALREADY KNOW WHO IT IS"
>rap man follows up this assertion by shouting one or several of his multiple rap man aliases, seemingly in direct defiance of his earlier suggestion that you already know who he is

very strange.

Unsurprisingly, there's a lot of Shiina Ringo here.

Have you listened to Lustt- Pillow Talk and Clio- Faces? They're my favorite things to come out of Italo-disco.
