Here's a for you all.

Which of the following musical artists has the greatest "albums per year" ratio? By that, I mean, the number of full length studio albums (excluding live albums, collabs, or compilations) recorded over the number of years they have been or were actively a recording artist or band.

Vote now!

The ratios will be posted tomorrow after the poll is closed.

all - keep the guesses coming! I plan to reveal the results this afternoon.

Also, I think I've got another poll with a different set of five artists in the queue.

You'll see.

Thank you to everyone who voted in my silly poll. Here are the album per year ratios for each of the artists:
The Beatles - 1.2
Dolly Parton - 0.7
Snoop Dogg - 0.6
Weezer - 0.5
Bruce Springsteen - 0.4

Did you guess right? Thanks for playing!

A second poll is about to go live.

Oh...I was going to guess the Beatles but second guessed myself because I thought that was too obvious, and it HAD to be some artist you would be less likely to guess, hence my vote for Weezer.

Shame on me for assuming it was a trick question.

@artemis I mean, they all have produced a LOT of albums over that time. It was very interesting to look up and figure out.

Today's new poll has another wide array of different artists.

@mdmrn that was a fun quiz!

@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@satsuma Thanks! I dropped a new one today with a brand new set of artists.

It's just (to me) an interesting stat to look at in terms of how prolific an artist was when they were active :luffylike:

@mdmrn I looked at Dolly’s output at the start of her career - 19 albums in less than 10 years!

@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@satsuma Right! She's such a talented & amazing artist.

And just so prolific. It's wild.

@mdmrn @satsuma Thank you for the quiz! I gave the wrong answer (Dolly) but I enjoyed it nonetheless

@neurothing @satsuma You are so welcome! Thanks for participating. It was fun to consolidate the stats.

Did a second one for today and it's another question of who is the most prolific!

@mdmrn Good, like expected. The Beatles I mean, would have thought Bruce would be higher though.

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@sariash Bruce's downfall has been the fact that he NEVER took breaks. He has been continuously recording & touring for 59 years. This makes his album per year ratio lower, even with producing 21 full length albums.

Whereas The Beatles broke up after a decade and produced 12 full length albums in that timeframe. So...it makes for an interesting ratio.

    @jabberati It's true. Their active period was low cause the band...you know, disbanded after that & did not really record as a group after that.

    Huge impact on the world.

    @mdmrn I voted what I thought would be right instantly, then it dawned on me that you just posted a Dolly Parton MV before creating this poll...🤔

    mdmrn,
    @mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

    @sariash On the one hand, looking up the vast list of full length album's Dolly has made DID inspire the poll. On the other hand, she MAY not be the most prolific FOR the period of time for which they were active either solo or as a group.

    :Hehe:

    @mdmrn I stopped scrolling before I saw the tags and options, but I knew this would only make sense if was included! 😄

    EWBAITE!

    mdmrn,
    @mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

    @mnf Weezer is VERY prolific with full length albums. BUT - is their album per year ratio the best? Find out next time on Dragon Ball Z...wait... :Hehe:

    @Kitty @sariash @satsuma @ThePop @neurothing Reaching out to some of my music friends to see if you can guess. I know that @gnitro already knows the answer...let's see if others do.

    Boosts appreciated :luffylike:

    neurothing,
    @neurothing@metalhead.club avatar

    @mdmrn @Kitty @sariash @satsuma @ThePop @gnitro Gave my answer. 😊

    mdmrn,
    @mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

    @neurothing Nice! And thank you!

    All will be revealed tomorrow when the poll closes.
