OK - Many thanks to Craig D for the (so far) lone response in Davy Jones obit. And in light of that, I want to take another step away from Politics for a minute and have a little fun with - and conduct a little poll about - music.
So here's what we're going to do. I'm going to list, in no partcular order, what I BELIEVE the top ten albums of all time are.
RULE #1: If you READ IT? You MUST comment.
RULE #2: Your comments must and may only consist of your own top-ten Albums list. No extensive or disrespectful opining about my choices or anyone elses, and no pissing contests! (And only TEN, limit one per band, and no TIES allowed!)
FAIR WARINING: ANY OTHER COMMENTS WILL BE DELETED! (just this once!)
But I DO want, very much, everyone to participate. I'm interested to see what will come out of it.
So here's mine:
The Beatles - Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967)
The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Are You Experienced? (1967)
Led Zepplin - IV (runes, zofo, etc...) (1971)
Black Sabbath - Paranoid (1971)
Bob Dylan - Blood on the Tracks (1975)
The Eagles - Hotel California (1976)
Pink Floyd - The Wall (1979)
Ozzy Ozbourne - Blizzard of Ozz (1981)
Guns 'n Roses - Appetite for Destruction (1987)
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Blood Sugar Sex Magik (1991)
(OK, so it ended up in chronoligical order. Yours doesn't have to be! LOL)
