Which is very practical if you want to introduce people to Jazz.
I like "Kind of blue" but I see your point. I've always preferred Kenny Dorham's Quiet Kenny for that reason. It's still a pleasure to listen to, not too hard on the ears, but it's a bit more challenging than Kind of Blue .

Pick me, pick me!
Dylan fan very much. Except for his religious 70s and 80's.

1. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles 10 + years. Apart from A Day In The Life I don't like it much at all and I grew up with The Beatles.
2. Pet Sounds - The Beach Boys Only listened to it once. Did absolutely nothing for me. 3. Revolver - The Beatles About 5 years ago however Eleanor Rigby is a brilliant track. 4. Highway 61 Revisited - Bob Dylan I will get stick for this for this because I don't really like Dylan at all but I really like this album and have it on CD. I think it was a couple of months back. 5. Rubber Soul - The Beatles Probably 5 years + again. I know The Beatles so well that I don't actually listen to them all that much. 6. What's Going On - Marvin Gaye A couple of months back. Apart from the meandering middle section, it's a cracking album. 7. Exile on Main Street - The Rolling Stones Never heard it. Not much of a Stones fan at all. 8. London Calling - The Clash A couple of weeks back. Love it. 9. Blonde on Blonde - Bob Dylan probably around 5 years ago. Can't remember much about it. 10. The Beatles ("The White Album") - The Beatles Once and that was probably 10 years ago. It's hard work. 11. The Sun Sessions - Elvis Presley Cannot stand Elvis Presley. 12. Kind of Blue - Miles Davis Around a year ago. Sketches Of Spain and Arghata are far better. 13. Velvet Underground and Nico - The Velvet Underground Around 18 months ago. I really have to be in the mood for it but if I am then it's a damn good listen. 14. Abbey Road - The Beatles About a year. Their best album for me. I want You is absolute class. 15. Are You Experienced? - The Jimi Hendrix Experience At least once a month probably. Absolutely love this album. 16. Blood on the Tracks - Bob DylanOnce. Again can't remember much. 17. Nevermind - Nirvana bleach is far better. Probably 7 or 8 years, it's just sat on my CD shelf gathering dust but it has some great tunes. 18. Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen Once. Bored the **** out of me. 19. Astral Weeks - Van Morrison Around 18 months ago. Have to be in the mood. 20. Thriller - Michael Jackson Never. 21. The Great Twenty-Eight - Chuck BerryNever 22. Plastic Ono Band - John LennonNever 23. Innervisions - Stevie WonderAround 5 years ago. A very patchy album. One day I like it and another it annoys me. 24. Live at the Apollo - James Brown Never but I do like James Brown. 25. Rumours - Fleetwood Mac3 years ago maybe? Does what it says on the tin and has some great songs on it for sure. You Make Loving Fun is class. 26. The Joshua Tree - U2 4 tracks are superb - Bullet The Blue Sky, In God's Country, Exit and Mother Of The Disappeared, the rest annoys the hell out of me so at least 5 years. 27. King of the Delta Blues Singers, Vol. 1 - Robert Johnson Less than a year ago. When the mood takes me I will listen to this and Sun House and drench myself in classic blues. 28. Who's Next - The Who 3 years ago. Don't really like it all that much but then The Who don't do a huge amount for me anyhow. 29. Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin At least 10 years, some great songs on here but just not a big Zep fan but Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You and Dazed and Confused are superb. 30. Blue - Joni Mitchell Around 5 years ago. I much prefer Hejira, it's her masterpiece in my eyes.

1. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles - Today - I can understand how it changed pop music but definitely over-rated and never been one of my favorites by The Beatles.
2. Pet Sounds - The Beach Boys- Yesterday - At first i thought it was another album praised by the critics that i wasn't going to see the beauty in. Well I was wrong every single song off it is amazing..definitely not for everyone though mostly for avid music listeners not "don't bore us straight to the chorus" listeners. 3. Revolver - The Beatles- Today 5. Rubber Soul - The Beatles- Today - The Beatles album that got me into the group. If it wasn't for this album we would've never got pet sounds, that's it. 6. What's Going On - Marvin Gaye- 5 Months Ago - I never been a big fan of Marvin Gaye or Motown but I must admit this album is a masterpiece. 7. Exile on Main Street - The Rolling Stones- Last Week - It took me a whole year to even get into this album but once i became a hardcore stones fan i learned to appreciate it and eventually I grew to love it..really important album in their catalog. 10. The Beatles ("The White Album") - The Beatles- Today - The album is so mismatched there are songs i love and songs i absolutely hate. 11. The Sun Sessions - Elvis Presley- Two Days Ago - He's the king of rock for a reason anyone that's not familiar with his work check this out. 14. Abbey Road - The Beatles- Has a special place in my heart. 17. Nevermind - Nirvana- 5 Years Ago - Good album by over-rated band. 20. Thriller - Michael Jackson- 2 Years Ago - Every song off this album is great definitely a special album for me as a child. *moonwalking* 28. Who's Next - The Who- 2 Months Ago - Not my favorite by the who but do love every song on this album...The Who Sell Out is better imo. 29. Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin- Last Month - As crazy as this is going to sound i like 4 Led Zeppelin albums more than this. Still a nice effort from one of the best groups to do it. |

13. Velvet Underground and Nico - The Velvet Underground 15. Are You Experienced? - The Jimi Hendrix Experience 17. Nevermind - Nirvana 20. Thriller - Michael Jackson 23. Innervisions - Stevie Wonder These are the only albums from this list I've ever listened to. I've heard bits from other artists and have a few albums by others, but not these particular ones. I'm really not interested in most proper rock or classic rock. At all. Since I was twelve or so I listened almost exclusively to music I found out about myself, so my listening habits are odd. That and having industrial and extreme metal being the basis of my musical knowledge and exposure kind of ****s up the whole classic rock thing.

Maybe a year ago. I like it but it isnt one of my Beatles favourites. 2. Pet Sounds - The Beach Boys Maybe a year and a half ago. I dont like it. 3. Revolver - The Beatles Probably 6 months ago. I bought it on CD years ago on holiday in Florida and just recently bought it again on vinyl. 4. Highway 61 Revisited - Bob Dylan Quite a long time ago. Maybe 2 years. I do like it but i havent listened to much Dylan in a while. 5. Rubber Soul - The Beatles Again I'd say a year ago. 6. What's Going On - Marvin Gaye Never. 7. Exile on Main Street - The Rolling Stones Two to three years ago. I used to love it. I probably still would but it hasnt had a spin in a long time. 8. London Calling - The Clash 3 to 4 years ago. I like the debut but I never got away with this one. 9. Blonde on Blonde - Bob Dylan Two to three years ago. 10. The Beatles ("The White Album") - The Beatles Six months ago. 11. The Sun Sessions - Elvis Presley Never. 12. Kind of Blue - Miles Davis I'm listening to Bitches Brew right now, could be about a year or two for this one. 13. Velvet Underground and Nico - The Velvet Underground Never. I've heard some kind of VU compilation I still have on CD but thats it. 14. Abbey Road - The Beatles Couple of years ago. 15. Are You Experienced? - The Jimi Hendrix Experience A few weeks ago. 16. Blood on the Tracks - Bob Dylan Probably a year and a half. Used to be my favourite Dylan record. 17. Nevermind - Nirvana I picked this up on CD maybe 3 months ago, as its one of those I never actually owned, despite having a CD-R since school. It could be four years or more since I actually listened to it though. 18. Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen Never. 19. Astral Weeks - Van Morrison Never. 20. Thriller - Michael Jackson Not so long ago. A few months ago. Definitely went back to it a few times since he died. 21. The Great Twenty-Eight - Chuck Berry I like Chuck Berry but never heard this.

Live at the Apollo - James Brown Never. 25. Rumours - Fleetwood Mac Never. 26. The Joshua Tree - U2 Years. I must have been in school. Could be 10 years. 27. King of the Delta Blues Singers, Vol. 1 - Robert Johnson Three years, maybe. I wanted to like it but I couldnt get into it. Maybe time for another go. 28. Who's Next - The Who Within the last year. It comes out every now and then still. 29. Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin Within the last six months, id say. 30. Blue - Joni Mitchell Within the last 18 months. I went through a Joni Mitchell phase but havent revisited in a while. |
