Another very very good letter

Joni Mitchell
Joy Division
Julien Baker
John Coltrane
John Talabot

absolutely ridiculous five.

Talabot could have missed out to Janelle Monae, Julia Holter or Jon Hopkins easily. Plus Japandroids, J Dilla, Jay Reatard, JAMC, Jonathan Richman (M will do for him tbf)… very good

It’s because of the Johns. You don’t think of them as J artists unless you are the kind of alphabetising-by-first-names fool that @Brainfreeze is turning us all into.

Ella_Megablast · 2020-04-03T15:17:41.862Z

Nah, I’m with @brainfreeze. I go by how my digital library orders things, and altering artist’s names to e.g. Coltrane, John just looks silly and try-hard to me

bornin69x · 2020-04-03T15:50:44.369Z

You don’t have to alter anything. Charles Dickens sits happily in the Ds in every bookshop and library in the world and John Coltrane is in the Cs in almost every record shop.
