"For this series those are the rules plain and simple. First Things First! Just great first real songs on dope albums. No interludes or skits. The classics hit you like those action packed scenes before the opening credits in a Bond film. There’s nothing like a strong opening statement when you
first listen to an album you’ve been waiting for. Or when you haven’t heard it in a while and that first song smacks you in the head as if to say, ‘duh! Where have you been?’ Or when you have a dope album in constant rotation and that first song lets your day begin with a bang.” -J-Live
