    So how does every one feel about this round?

    Was Ablotrauez roo low, was SFA too high, .....

    I must say I love Walrus. It forces you to listen to new music, esp from artists you would be keen on.

    Good selection today, very varied. I got to listen along which is a rare treat for me. Obviously I'd have a totally different order to you, but that's the joy of it too

    And trust me, I am well aware I typically have bad taste.... something Irish Aris will agree no doubt. So dont be fooled by a low placing, it could be a gem I do noy appreciate.

    One mans gold and all that

    Not at all, I agree with the vast majority of your comments. Just I'd have shuffled the order a fair bit I think

    Albatrooz is annoying as hell, I'd rather listen to Crazy Frog. Correct position. Golden Retriever is a great song.

    Can't believe you never heard Freebird before Beaker.
    Allen Collins played the whole solo throught in one take!
    He was a monster guitarist :cool: Check out their first album Pronounced.

    It is used to great effect in the final scene of The Devils Rejects

    Don't watch the clip if you don't like violence folks.

    Dont mind finishing behind Sinead and SFA on this one. That is definitely one of Sineads better songs and the furries are just brilliant anyway

    Love SFA :D
    When I saw them at Body and Soul in 2016 I think, they asked if anyone had any food and said to take it out and wave it in the air... I was drinking G&T so I just happened to have a cucumber and I was in the front row :D they mercilessly took the piss out of me for the rest of the set.

    I love band and fan interaction like this, it just makes their sessions so much memorable.

    This may get me a lot of hate, but I never really liked Bowie. I like some of his tracks sure, but he never really appealed to me.

    Uh-oh, not amazing news I have to say

    I duplicated an old entry here. The song I submitted came fifth in Homer's 90s round and the first words of his listening notes were "Ooh this has a tasty riff!" so I had to :pac:

    I'm not sure why (because I know most of them also play the other games around here), but I always imagine in my head that the Werewolf players are the Jocks and Cheerleaders of Forum Games, because everything else more or less slows down when they've got a "big game" on... :D

    Id also like to stress, I didnt hate any tracks this round. A very hard round to score and I feel that most songs in the bottom half could easily be in the top half.

    So lets go guys.....
