Organization: St. Joseph's University, Phila. PA. Lines: 37 Summary: Why the above belongs on net.jokes.d >>>>> >>> The USENET top 78 album list <<< >>>>> >>>>> >>>>>1) Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon - 190.5 >>>>>2) Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here - 174 >>>>>3) Pink Floyd - The Wall - 149 >>>>>4) Who - Who's Next - 140 >>>>>5) Beatles - Abbey Road - 132 >>>>>6) Bush, Kate - The Dreaming - 108.5 >>>>>7) Led Zeppelin - ZoSo (Zeppelin IV) - 107.5 >>>>>8) Beatles - The Beatles (The White Album) - 116.5 >>>>>9) Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - 98 >>>>>10) Springsteen, Bruce - Born to Run - 88.5 >>>>> I refuse (with three R's) to believe that "Who's Next" or any album by our favorite net.star could outrank Led Zeppelin IV.Consequently I challenge the results of this sur- vey.My own personal theory is that everybody's favorite net- poster at mit-eddie went around bribing people at his school to use their accounts to vote.This would nicely explain why 4 of the top 6 albums are from Pink Floyd and you-know-who. I CAN'T believe that The Wall,history's stupidest concept album, could beat Led Zep IV by 30 votes!!! All of you voters better rem- ember this next time you whistle along with "Stairway to Heaven" or stomp your feet to "Misty Mountain Hop".You've dealt that album an injustice!!! P.S. Don't dare,dare,dare!!!! flame me on this article Just another rather irrate contribution to net.KateBush, Larry Palena { astrovax | allegra | bpa | burdvax } !sjuvax!lp102911
