Ideal Album Length/Number Of Tracks

Y'all.

Maybe this has been a topic before, maybe not, I couldn't see anything recent so I'm creating it.

I wanna ask, for you what the ideal album length is in regards to number of songs.

As an example, if I see an album gets announced with ten tracks, I am HYPED. Ten tracks, to me, says these are all gonna be quality-ass songs, all killer, no filler. A definitive statement. No fucking about. We brought you The Good Shit. Now, obviously, there are exceptions to this way of thinking, but that's my feeling. Conversely, if an album gets announced and it has, say, fifteen songs, I'm like "Daaaaaamn, tracks 9 through 13 are gonna be tough... 😬" Again, there would be exceptions. I can think of them, so can you, but yeah. For me, an album with over twelve songs is getting into danger territory. Ten is my personal fav. Eleven is interesting. nine!? Who are you, Thin Lizzy in the 70s? Let's go, nine is sick.

So yeah, does anyone else assess an album like this, care about how many songs is on an album, have preconceptions of an albums quality based on the amount of songs on it? I wanna know.

Looking For The Cardinals BBC4 Show In Good Quality.

Hey dudes,

Per the subject, someone a while back dropped in here the BBC4 Cardinals gig (which has been on YouTube for 17 years - fuck, we getting old!), but it was as one video and the quality was very good, like 720p if I had to guess, waaaaay better than the 240p clips that are out there at present.

Anyone got this they can link me too?

Thanks y'all🙏

I've had this Burny SG around the house for a little while now. I'm no pro but it plays pretty well to me, didn't cost too much, but I realised I really don't know much about it in terms of its age, regard, quality, etc.

I got it from a deceased estate, was told the prior owner had an affinity for Japanese-made guitars from the 80s/90s, and my Googling tells me this would likely be a late 80s, early 90s-made Burny, but yeah, wondering if, by sight, anyone could say much more?

I understand Burny guitars are somewhat notoriously hard to date, based on not having any defining features (serial number, etc), and that I'd have to take it apart maybe to really know, but yeah, prior to that, just curious.

Cheers dudes!
