Apollonia 6 at a lowly 21. NO WAY! I deserves a top 10 spot, and I think the Madhouse albums are repetitive and somewhat dull.

"Faded Photographs" wasn't part of that poll because it didn't feature Prince input. I agree it's very good!

I noticed that too. I thought Apollonia 6 was regarded more highly here. I like it more than Ice Cream Castle and 1-800-NEW-FUNK.

I find it hard to believe that orgers on the whole think Hit n Run Phase One and MPLSound are better than this.

The poll participants are a mixture of orgers and Facebook users (many of whom are former orgers). But yeah, it always surprises me that Planet Earth doesn't have a warmer reception.

Really? I know it is not one of his best albums but it is one of his most enjoyable albums of this century. The fact that Future Love Song didn't rate in the top 430 songs is another sign to me that this album was under-rated.

I agree - 20Ten is a nice little album, particularly the first 6 tracks.
