Bjornebye Exposed In Soul Sell-out Scandal Shocka!!!!!

 

I treated myself to a trawl though the MOWTOWN/SOUL/FUNK/R&B thread yesterday and discovered the following act of treachery in the last post on page two of that magnificent body of work:

 

“I’ve been listening to a lot of motown again recently. Love dancing to it pissed in the kitchen.

Dated 8 January 2017,

 

 

To my utter astonishment I noticed the post was submitted by none other than Bjornebye himself.

 

 

Yet here we are, three and a half years later, and the philistine flatly refuses numerous calls to include The Four Tops in the plebiscite.

 

 

Clearly this quisling needs inebriation, sobriety doesn’t suit him.

 

 

Can we have less hip-hop, grunge, indie and white-boy trailer- trash, heavy metal filth and a bit more music?

A band who can deliver a tune with melody, rhythm and musicianship plus a singer or two who can actually hit a note?

 

 

Bjornebye: bend the knee, black music matters.

 

 

Four Tops please Pal, and I’ll pay your bar bill.

 

Its the same old song.

That's more than 20 and The War On Drugs are shite so deffo drop them if you're whittling it down. I walked out on them in Utrecht.

I can whittle it down to 20 if needed. Ones listed are ones I listen to regularly.

I doubt anyone is actually going to count up the votes anyway but I reckon it's way harder to list 20 than 50 or so. Some good stuff in there. Leave Mudhoney in, they're boss.

Of course Fleetwood Mac should be excluded, they are pretty much split between British and American members. They don't fit in either. 

 

The only argument could have been made was for Peter Greens Fleetwood Mac prior to 1970

The best of those bands are rooted in the '80s rather than the '90s, I'd say.

 

But repped for including Cheap Trick...
