| Crown of Creation is one of our biggest snubs from the 1960's in my opinion. It has my vote regardless of what else gets nominated. The other 8 would depend on what's nominated, though I would be pretty likely to vote for at least This Was and The Immortal Otis Redding. | |

| Damn! I missed the nomination period for the artist vote for Florence. I really thought it was just Electric Light Orchestra this month. Oh well, at least everyone here nominated all the good remaining ones. If I had known, I would've nominated "Queen of Peace" and "King". | |
