Greatest Hits, Vol. 3
Volcano is demanding that Al compile his third greatest hits album, filled with some of the best and most memorable songs that werent included on the first two compilations (including post-Headline News releases). Al wants to spend time with Suzanne and Nina and doesnt want to be bothered with it, so hes putting me in charge. And now, Im putting you guys in charge. I want the teams to come up with a 15-track song list, a cover for the CD, and a press release annoucing the CD (with a release date set for September 27, 2005). One of my associates will judge all three of these aspects. Theyre looking for a tracklist representative of Als career (without including any tracks from the first two Greatest Hits albums), a creative cover, and a well-written press release. Theyll decide which team did the better job on each aspect of the release. Your team could have the better cover, but if my associate prefers the other teams tracklist and press release, they would win. You need to do better on two of the three aspects to win.
The three members of the winning team are guaranteed a spot in the final five. The Project Manager of the losing team will pick one person to join them in the boardroom. One of those two people will be the eleventh person fired.
Good luck!

I knew I left something out. Please send in all three aspects of this task by Friday at 10 PM EST.Posted: Thu May 05, 2005 1:56 am
Isn't best tracklist kind of ambiguous? As we may see Genius in France as one of his best songs, for example, the judge may think it's his worst song since Good Old Days. It seems like a lot of this hinges on picking songs that the judges like.
Also, as it would be kind of silly to use pictures from previous albums on the cover of this one, are we allowed to use pics from the Mothership or is that still a no-no?

No pictures from the Mothership without Bermuda's permission.
You're trying to pick what songs that are most representative of Al's career that aren't on GH1 or GH2. So if you feel that "Good Old Days" or "Genius in France" are good representations of Al's career, you can include them. Don't worry, the judge won't let personal thoughts on songs get in the way.
