It's a track you could write off as a cheeky novelty hit, except unlike most novelty discs, it's proven enduring to many of us. indienumber1s.blogspot.com/2026/09/117-...indienumber1s.blogspot.com117.

Reposted by Matt JonesJoel Morris @gralefrit.bsky.social · 28/09/2026You can’t understand the story of rock music without following the main and side plots together. For example, I don’t even WANT to know about Frank Zappa and Captain Beefheart without the proper context of the accompanying episodes on the GTOs and The Banana Splits. That’s how good this is. 77815

Reposted by Matt JonesMatt Round @mattround.com · 17/09/2026This is a nice idea (try to make hit album by picking most popular track from 12 albums) but not sure it works as a lasting game; if you know an album or hits from it it’s easy to pick well, if you don’t it’s guesswork, doesn’t feel like there’s a lot of skill & judgement to develop debutle.comdebutle.comDebutle - Spin Albums, Build a Chart-Topping DebutSpin real albums, pick one song from each, and build a 12-track debut. Can it debut at #1 and top the charts? 121
