The polls have closed. There are some current favs listed, but my top selections all seem to stem from the same time period, hmm. My top 63 albums listed in no particular order (other than reverse numerical) are:<BR/>63 Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique<BR/>62 Tracy Chapman - Tracy Chapman<BR/>61 Ray Charles - The Genius of Ray Charles<BR/>60 Original Cast Recording - Rent<BR/>59 Strokes, The - Room on Fire<BR/>58 10,000 Maniacs - Blind Man's Zoo<BR/>57 Gorillaz - Gorillaz<BR/>56 Police - Ghost In The Machine<BR/>55 Suzanne Vega - 99.9 F<BR/>54 Matthew Sweet - Altered Beast<BR/>53 Elvis Costello - This Years Model<BR/>52 Echo & the Bunnymen - Songs to Learn and Sing<BR/>51 Smiths - Meat Is Murder<BR/>50 Squeeze - Singles 45 & UnderAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18139627.post-1146454812276862042006-04-30T19:40:00.000-08:002006-04-30T19:40:00.000-08:00Okay, I'm betting neither of these will make your ...Okay, I'm betting neither of these will make your list, baby, but I would put up 2 outstanding concept albums, both of which I know I've mentioned to you before. INNOCENT MAN by Billy Joel, and FLY by the Dixie Chicks. (I may have to make you listen to that someday, even if it is country.) THE WHITE ALBUM and SGT. PEPPER... are both damn good, of course. I'm also fond of AC/DC BACK IN BLACK, but even I can't really say that makes the top 100. I'll keep thinking. You know, I would put FLOOD on there, though I know you prefer LINCOLN.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18139627.post-1144161287119786972006-04-04T06:34:00.000-08:002006-04-04T06:34:00.000-08:00I'll contribute, but my submissions will reflect m...I'll contribute, but my submissions will reflect more of <I>my</I> all-time favorites. So, no Beatles, or Stones (Rolling, that is), no Led Zepplin, no Elvis (Presley, that is), many of the "standard" top 100 darlings will be absent. It's no that I dislike these artists, just that I dislike their music. Well, that's not entirely true, but these artists haven't had the impact on me and my life that others may have.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
