It would extend the thread, encourage more involved discussion since people would be able to focus on a fewer number of albums at a time, and most importantly, it would give those of us not entirely familiar with his discography a chance to catch up, since it would be pretty much impossible for me or many others to be involved if we had to worry about voting for every single one of his albums all at once.
Great idea.
I was reluctant to participate because listening to 15 albums I hardly know/remember in a short time period isn't something I'd like doing.
We could do it in batches of five albums. It'd be very vaguely separated according to his different phases as well. (For example all the Berlin albums would be in one battle.)
There'd be six albums in the last batch, but we all know which one would win that round anyway.
