I agree and a lot of people I know do too, that's why I don't get why he's getting joked on as my pick.

Kinda shocking that no Elvis was taken until the 7th round huh? I figured someone would grab #1s, but I'm not a fan of greatest hits albums.

No, I am a fan of Big L. Just mentioning Smoothe and Trigga because, like Big L, they are awesome yet somewhat . . . obscure to most people.

By the way, the 7 minute freestyle with Jay-Z is sick. Jay Z spits hot fire, but Big L pretty much slays him. Don't know if it is on any albums, but you can easily find it on . . . um, let's just say a certain green-logo'd file sharing service.

Yea Big does kill Jay on that. Jay just sort of stutters through it and tries to pass it off as a rap when really he's just going "biggity bam, biggity bam bam".

El Dorado is a masterpiece, it is so hard just to listen to one track for how cohesive it is.

Is there any chance of maybe having an extended run of 5 more rounds past the 10? I don't think I can include of the jazz records that I want in my list.

ChrisKnudsen - do you know that there is a five line limit on sigs here at DVD Talk? You may want to make two columns out of your sig. Just letting you know before the mods step in.

I don't think I want to push my luck with another week of draft choices. Time to make the hard decisions.

Besides, if we extended the draft another week, your sig would take up half a page.

An excellent choice and one of my considerations. I find this album to be his best, eventhough everyone seems to like Crash and Under the Table much more.

For anyone who might be having a "drafter's block" I just want to remind them that these albums are still available:





Thank you.

what's the album on top row right hand side - that looks awfully familiar.
