albums that go above and beyond the call of duty
I was thinking of albums the other day that should be on a special rack above all others. Im talking about the albums you can put on and listen to the whole thing straight through, albums that have affected you in one way or another.
Here's mine Stevie Wonder - Songs in The Key Of Life Beatles - White Album Radiohead - Ok Computer Nine Inch Nails - The Downward Spiral David Bowie - The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars Pulp - Different Class Marvin Gaye - What's Going On The Jam - In The City Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin 2 The Who - Quadrophenia Sex Pistols - Never Mind The Bollocks, Here's The Sex Pistols The Velvet Underground - The Velvet Underground And Nico |
Gontiti - Guitars
Jethro Tull - Aqualung and Thick As A Brick Carl Verheyen - Improvisations David Lee Roth - Eat 'em And Smile Beatles - Where do I start? Can I just say "all of 'em"? Israel Kamakawiwo'ole - Facing Future Mother Love Bone Primus - Sailing the Seas of Cheese Tom Lehrer - That Was the Year that Was |
Cake - Fashion Nugget and Comfort Eagle
Annie Lennox - Diva Oingo Boingo - Dead Man's Party |
Carl Verheyen? I took a couple lessons from him back in the late 80's...great player.

You took lessons from Verheyen? Do tell! The man is unbelievable, incredible....I can't find the words.

Iron Butterfly: "In a ga-ga-da vida" (But only one side. ;))
The Band: "Big Pink" Beatles: "The Beatles" (aka "white album") Rolling Stones: "Through The Past, Darkly" Pink Flloyd: "Dark Side Of The Moon" Derek and the Dominos - "Layla and other Assorted Love Songs" (Never would have made it without Clapton, tho...) And.. somebody who was there early, and survived despite being covered by Pat Boone? Richard Penniman, aka Little Richard! Guys, after years of Doris Day, Andy Williams, Dean Martin, & other krap...the first time I heard Rock, REAL Rock? I KNEW something was happening out there...oh yeah!! :D |
Jeff Buckley-Grace
Smashing Pumpkins - Meloncollie and Infinite Sadness Weezer - blue album Interpol - turn on the bright lights radiohead - ok computer DMB- live at red rocks beck - odelay |
Rolling Stones....Beggars Banquet, Let it Bleed, & Get yer YA YA's Out. You know the song I listen to when I write this stuff...& Gimme Shelter, "Memo from Turner".. "Cock Sucker Blues"
Get yer Ya ya's out is perhaps the best Live album ever recorded. It was from the tour that they were aclaimed as being "The Greatest Rock and Roll Band." I would second The Who's 'Live at Leeds' Never has a band put out as much energy as they did. Just watch the movie "The Kids are Allright" Also the second edition of Jimi Hendrix's "Band of Gypsys"...Machine Gun...On the "Isle of Wight" album he almost makes the guitar talk. The Doors First album..."mother I want to fk you" from the song "The End" U2's "Actung Baby" The The's "Infected" album..."Twlight of Champions"...."I sold my soul today for my dinner...my stomachs getting fatter but my hearts getting thinner...I'm not failing...I'm falling" Credence Clearwaters..."Willie and the Poor Boys" the bass riff on "Feelin Blue" The Clash..."Radio Clash".... "This is Radio Clash...." Live Cream "Wheels of Fire"...If I didn't have bad luck I wouldn't have no luck at all....nuff precision to clear the sinus's Eric Burdon and War & Black mans Burdon..."Spill the Wine".... "A long haired leaping known..the star of a Hollywood movie" Bowies..."Alladin Sane"...."Panic in Detroit" Dylan's "Highway 61 Revisited"...."Ballad of a Thinman"...."You don't know what happening ...do you Mr. Jones" Leon Russels song"Shootout on the Plantation"...."All the Oklahoma cowboys are turned on to tinsle town" Tom Waits.....song "Heart Attack and Vine"....Theres no Devil...just God whens he's drunk" Humble Pie's live rendition of "30 Days in the Hole" .....
