barttttender Posted November 20, 2023 Posted November 20, 2023 16 hours ago, Vertimus said: I agree; in the past, say, in the 50s and 60s, poetry, with or without backing music, and spoken word 'albums' by people like Jack Kerouac, Edith Sitwell, or Carl Sandburg were considered albums. The same with comedy albums by Bob Newhart, Woody Allen, or Nichols & May, and in the 70s, Cheech & Chong and George Carlin. The problem is not whether a poetry album is an album or not, but simply distinguishing Lana's music albums from her poetry album(s). I think it's correct to say, if you're counting Paradise as an album, as I do, that Lana has 9 music albums, or just 'Lana has 9 albums, and 1 poetry album.' Now, why would you count Paradise as an album when it says EP on it? Lana has 9 music albums, one of which is a spoken word album. That's why OB has "9th album" on the cover. She doesn't mean Paradise since it's an EP, she doesn't mean AKA because it never got released properly and you can't even find it on iTunes. She means OB, BB, CC, Violet, NFR, LFL, HM, UV, BTD - nine. She also has an EP (Paradise) and some unreleased albums and EP under different names.

Google and the world of the internet at large has classified it as an ALBUM. Yet some twats out there still don't think it's an album or are debating it. What fresh hell. it’s album but it’s not music album so there’s no need to consider it while counting all music albums not to mess things up what’s bad 2

Think of it any which way you like. But facts are facts. And the artists herself has spoken.

There’s instrumental production in every track (therefore it’s not just an audiobook) and it also had a single available in every streaming services! Just because it’s a spoken word album doesn’t mean it isn’t a music album 2

I'm just not going to discredit a spoken word album just because it's not a basic bitch music album. Spoken word albums (especially ones produced by Jack Antonoff) deserve to be counted. Also, respect Lana's opinion about her own body of work, damn it

Embach Posted November 20, 2023 Posted November 20, 2023 LDR10 Pre-Pre-Release Thread bingo: talking about the order of LDR's albums ✅ Now I made a thread for this topic, feel free to discuss about it there, not here, let's not make a mess because of this: 3
Eugene Posted November 20, 2023 Posted November 20, 2023 I don't care who the producer of LDR10 is, I just want a cohesive album... After the variety of sounds on Blue Banisters and Ocean Blvd I'm concerned. 1
Vertimus Posted November 20, 2023 Posted November 20, 2023 The primary purpose of Violet is poetry, not music, and the music is 'background' music, as it was when poetry albums first came into being in the 50s, like those of Jack Kerouac and Kenneth Patchen. Sometimes there was a musical accompaniment, and sometimes not. There's a long history of such recordings. Carl Sandburg accompanied himself on guitar while he recited his work. If music were the primary purpose of Violet, then of course it would be one of Lana's music albums. That's how I see it. 3
Dark Angel Posted November 20, 2023 Posted November 20, 2023 i'm sorry but this has got to be one of the most boring and obnoxious topics of discussion/debates on lanaboards 7

Psychedelic Pussy Posted November 20, 2023 Posted November 20, 2023 More pointless discussion….. someone @ me when she announces LDR10 or gives us actual news. Thank u! 4
