The moment 3 1/2 of you have waited for...the final four!

Tempus fugit, my friends. For everything in life, of course, but also for things you wanted to do, then looked up weeks or months later and said 'whoops'. Especially if those things only have an importance for about three and a half individuals. Yes, I'm talking about your old pal and mine, the Best Album Eliminator. The fact that some readers randomly looked at various posts related to it, reminded me that we never finished the damn thing. That which can't be killed people...will rise again. Today. We're gonna see that bloody thing through all the way to its bloody end! Who's with me??? 

Uh...


I SAID 'WHO'S WITH ME???'!


Ok, fine. 

So anyways, since we never wrapped up the elite eigth, here's the results:

Velvet Underground & Nico lost in a bit of an upset to Nevermind (2-3). Revolver defeated Blood On The Tracks (4-2). Abbey Road narrowly won out against Sticky Fingers (3-2). And Who's Next beat Automatic For The People (5-1). 

Which means we get the following Final Four:

Revolver vs. Nevermind

Abbey Road vs. Who's Next

Well, you know what to do, folks...(and if you don't, shame on you...)
