Just 1/40for me.

Lily Allen - excellent album, and perfect for summer.

Will get Amy Winehouse album soon. Best of Dolly Parton is probably good too (IMO). She sings with feeling, but only have one album of hers.

Cascada? :lmao:

3 out of 40, which surprised me, I would have expected 0. Snow Patrol on vinyl, Simply Red, cos the mr's is a fan, and a snorah.

1/20 for me in CD format(The Fratelli's), I have some of the others as MP3's.

TBH I find most modern chart music unlistenable, most of it is so poorly made I just can't be bothered to listen to it.

0/40, in fact I dont have any stuff at allby anyone in the top 40.

In case your interested, this was the last couple of CD's I bought;

http://www.amazon.co.uk/When-Going-Gets-Dark-Quasi/dp/B000E8NR0I/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/026-5097044-5873217?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1179825698&sr=8-1

http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_ss_m_h_/026-5097044-5873217?url=search-alias%3Dpopular&field-keywords=soundpooling

Also, and I'm not having a go at anyone here, but to say 'I would have thought you would have the Arcade Fire album, thats great on BIG speakers ' rather lays on the line a major barrier between those who are into HiFi for its own sake, and those who are in to HiFi as a conduit between music and the listner. Why buy something 'cos it sounds good on a particular setup? If you like the music, buy it, and if you don't, don't - just be careful not to blinker yourself.

Not sure what the point is of this thread, is it to show how cool and hip you are by having a number of records in the current charts, or is it to show how cool and hip you are by not having any records in the current charts?

As ever theres some good stuff in the charts and theres also some complete tripe.

4/20 & 4/40

Artic Monkeys - Liking that a lot

Snow Patrol - 1 good song Chasing Cars. Final Straw was much better

Fratellis - Havent got around to listening to it yet

Killers - hmmmm I think I'll stick to the 1st album

Would quite like to hear Arcade Fire - the last album was very good. Kaiser Chiefs maybe - how does it compare to the last album though?

Gonna check the Q list now. They make good lists lol

`Twas ever thus: never, ever had much time for chart music...

If you sincerely believe that all music after the year xxyy is rubbish and not worth listening to, that is the year you became unadventurous and closed-minded.

OTOH if you believe that only this weeks top 10 are worth a spin, you are probably a bird-brained fashion victim!
