Anyway, I'm still playing Aftermath. I won't review it because I've already made my decision on whether I'd vote it off or not. It's blues rock, and barely has any rock and roll. I'm voting it off. It's great, though. I think it's my fifth RS album.
As opposed to Bo Diddley, who in no way goes back and forth between rock and blues. I would have used the Rolling Stones' debut, but Aftermath still qualifies as rock'n'roll IMO, even if it's on its way to different things, and deserves the spot more. Just. Maybe.
