March’s @lpgrp theme is ‘concept album’.
For the nomination stage this month, there are a couple of
one-off changes to the usual routine. First, each person can nominate one album
instead of two. I’m happy to be proved wrong, but I’m hoping a shorter
shortlist (just this month) will result in less quibbling whether a certain
album is actually a concept album or not.
Also, I’d appreciate it if each nomination was accompanied
by a brief mention in brackets of what the concept of the album actually is. This’ll
be quite interesting and educational, I reckon – and may push people to
discover new material purely by being tempted by an unusual concept.
Send your nomination via a Direct Message to @lpgrp or via a
tweet ordnaire that mentions @lpgrp.
The deadline for your nominations is 6pm on Sunday 10th
February. I can then draw up a shortlist for voting. I shall issue more details
about voting on Sunday night.
Thanks, all.
