[Mozza]

Von euren beiden Listen (Martl, Magnetic) habe ich jeweils die Hälfte der Alben.
Schöne Pop-Listen, bei Martl dann noch etwas mehr Rock, Metal mit dabei.

Dennoch fehlen noch großartige Alben, sei es in einer der Listen oder sogar in beiden.
Als Pop-affine Hörer gehört Elton John - Live In Australia auf jeden Fall in so eine Liste.
Und was ist mit "Cloud Nine" von George Harrison? "Sentimental Hygiene" von Warren Zevon?
Motörhead - "Rock N Roll"? Chris Rea - "Dancing With Strangers"?
Um nur ein paar zu nennen... ich glaube, ihr müsst da noch mal ran....

[madmartl]

Ich habe für mich entschieden, Livealben nicht aufzunehmen. Das fühlt sich für mich so richtiger an. Eine Ausnahme mache ich vielleicht bei speziellen Unplugged-Alben, wie bei Nirvana. Das muss ich noch überlegen.
Ansonsten bin ich natürlich immer auf der Suche und hoffe, beim nächsten Update einiges mehr aufbieten zu können.
