ALBUM CLUB! It’s like a book club, but with MUSIC! Click here to sign up

Which albums from a certain artist's oeuvre are their definitive works? Which ones are your FAVORITES?

Calling all BLACK SABBATH fans! Join us at the CARAJILLO on Thursday, SEPTEMBER 25, at 6:30 pm, to discuss, defend, and agree-to-disagree with other music fans about what makes your favorite album or song by a selected artist their definitive ‘best!’

Album club is a way to approach and discuss music in a way similar to our book clubs & film clubs. At each meeting, we will highlight one artist from our extensive music library who has released five or more albums and discuss/debate which album of theirs reigns supreme (and why!)

Before the meeting, we invite attendees to submit their favorite track(s) from their favorite album by each month’s selected artist. From there, we’ll compile and create a playlist to listen to at the W.A.B. on the night of our event, listening to each of our pre-selected songs to hopefully foster a renewed appreciation of the artists we love, while keeping our spirited debates respectful.
