Welcome Ladies and Gents to the first ever Music Draft: Appetite for Draftstruction!

There will be 14 participants drafting in 14 different categories with the aim to pick the best music collection possible.

I've randomised the categories and here's the results:
1. Movie Soundtracks
2. Trios
3. Live Recorded Albums
4. Comeback Albums
5. Glam Rock
6. 90's Divas
7. Albums before 1960
8. Albums from 2012
9. The Beatles Vs The Rolling Stones
10. 80's Thrash Metal
11. Debut Albums
12. Australian 80's Albums
13. Produced by Rick Rubin
14. Boy Bands

And now onto what the draft order will be. For this I went onto a draft simulation website and these posters were picked randomly.

1. Aenimence
2. Reardo
3. Roobs321
4. Filthy Sanchez
5. alfy!
6. A Bit High
7. BoshtrichBurger
8. Marklar_33
9. JP Sauce
10. PVF
11. thewitness
12. spartanwa
13. mansize rooster
14. sblack

To put it simply, Aenimence will pick first for Movie Soundtracks, then drop to 14th pick for Trios, then up 13th for Live Recorded Albums, etc. Each new category you move up a spot in the draft order.

When selecting your albums try to give us your reasons why. Write as much as you can be bothered as it makes for better discussion and maybe post some youtube videos.

And as I said in the other thread:
24 hour limit to make picks, after that it's up to the next person in the draft.
Any questions then tag me in your post, or private message me.
Any issues over the categories then raise them quickly.
Make sure to tag the next person that's drafting after you as it makes life easier.

All makes sense yes? Then let's get going!

Not sure how I feel about my number 1 pick.

On the one hand I'll get arguably the greatest album of all time, but on the other hand that category is stacked so a later pick would still be okay. Picking last in thrash metal is going to ruin me.

Okay, so I assume with 'Movie Soundtracks' we're not going witg film scores? Let me know otherwise.

Imma go with Music from the Motion Picture Pulp Fiction with the first pick in the draft.

File:PulpFictionSoundtrack.jpg


There were at least five other soundtracks better suited to my sensibilities that I weighed up here. And a few others. In the end, I found myself hard-pressed to pass up my first choice - Pulp Fiction, perhaps for sheer notability. But it's always stuck out to me to as something memorable, brilliant and cool. There's a nice balance of 50s surf rock and soul hits with some lesser known (by me at least) tunes scattered throughout. Sets me in a unique mood.

I would be content if this should play every time I enter a room:



And this when I exit:

 
Awesome choice, not in the draft... but will be following it closely (round two i might have a crack). thinking it wouldn't be the worst idea to include the full track listings for picks also just so we can see/remember everything that was on the album.

Plus it will help me to figure out who i will eventually vote for :D
 
Just a question before we get started? Are multiple albums by the same artist allowed in the same catergory? Obviously this will happen with Beatles vs Stones, but in say 90s Divas can we have 3 Madonna albums...?
As a question to make me look stupid, is tagging someone as easy as it looks? Ive never done it before.

I would've said yes but will leave the ruling to PVF. As long as no same album is selected twice for the entire draft I'd say it should be okay.
 
Sorry guys, have been stuck at work all day!

Beautiful work PVF :thumbsu: (Pretty sure you just copy/pasted most of it :p)

Great name too!

I wouldn't do that ;) haha.

Yeah just Movie Soundtracks.

Love you're first pick, a great album. Tarantino usually has great soundtracks to his movies. The opening song is just pure awesomeness, too bad the Black Eyed Peas had to ruin it.

Multiple artists is fine but if the album is selected already then I can't be selected again. Otherwise 80's Thrash would be a very hard category to pick from :p

Just pretty much a @ sign in front of someone's name, pretty easy :)

So the great Reardo is up!

Honestly guys, I dont really know if i'll be around to finish this draft, but i'll go ahead and pick (going to bed and out all tomorrow)

Carlito's Way

41387;encoding=jpg;size=300;fallback=defaultImage


It's my most played soundtrack of all time, no original score in sight, and pure good-time disco/salsa/etc. It's perfect.

Tracklist:
1. I love Music - Rozalla
2. Rock the Boat - Hues Corporation
3. That's the Way (I like it) - K.C. & The Sunshine Band
4. Rock Your Baby - Ed Terry
5. Parece Mentira - Marc Anthony
6. Back Stabbers - The O'Jays
7. T.S.O.P. (The Sound of Philadelphia) - MFSB
8. Got to be Real - Cheryl Lynn
9. Lady Marmalade - Labelle
10. Pillow Talk - Sinoa
11. El Watusi - Ray Barretto
12. Oye Como Va - Santana
13. You are So Beautiful - Billy Preston

Bolded is one of my favourite songs period.
 
I want to get this thing rolling so we'll keep it going and if Reardo doesn't pick in the next couple of days then I'll replace him with Broken if he wishes to join :)

Filthy Sanchez you are up ;)
I'm sure Reardo will make it in the next couple of days, but if he doesn't I'll fill in (shitty pick and all ;) )
