 | Live at the Fillmore East by Jimi Hendrix
Buy new: $13.97 / Used from: $8.75 In December 2003 RollingStone came out with an issue of suposebly the 500 grt albums of all time...I can't believe this didn't make it , you can't understand the power and soul of this til you hear it
|
 | Slow Train Coming by Bob Dylan
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $7.46 They polled 273 people ranging from artists,producers,labelex's,artist managers,historians,andcritics...This is one of Dylan's best. Amazing lyrics! Not a single religious record made it on the list.
|
 | BBC Sessions by Led Zeppelin
Buy new: $20.99 / Used from: $6.90 This list contains the grt artists past and present including Miles Davis,led Zeppelin,JohnnyCash,Pink Floyd The Doors,Weezer,Pearl Jam..BBC is my fav cd of alltime, it really rocks. Underrated cd!
|
 | Another Side of Bob Dylan by Bob Dylan
Buy new: $9.98 / Used from: $3.75 A lot of cool people voted like CameronCrowe,Beck,RayManzereck,JohnDensmore,(of The Door's) and Kurt Loder..With all of the Dylan albums that made it why not this ,better that any Springsteen album!
|
 | The Top Ten Hits by Elvis Presley
Buy used from: $1.00 A lot of sucky people Yoko Ono,Missy Eliot,Jackson Browne!...Folks this is the music that shook up the world all top 10 hits, he has to many compilations and grt hits but this ones the real deal!
|
 | Morrison Hotel by The Doors
Buy used from: $1.40 They should of polled more muscians instead of all theseproducers,record exs..Only 3 Doors albums unbelivable, this is considered one of their best, laid back and bluesy stuff.
|
 | Meddle by Pink Floyd
Buy new: $11.97 / Used from: $7.55 In an earlier issue they polled the fans for a top 100 list, it would of been a lot better list had they combined the two...Pink Floyd's more well knowns made it but I believe this is just as worthy
|
 | Slippery When Wet by Bon Jovi
Buy new: $7.97 / Used from: $4.98 More than 2,400 albums were picked from and tabulated using a weighed by a point system...BonJovi were ignored i guess their not sophiscated or important enough these days But who cares it rocks!!!!
|
 | This Land Is Your Land: The Asch Recordings, Vol. 1 by Woody Guthrie
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $8.47 Any album was fair game including compilations, even a few boxset's were picked and live albums..Guthries music is important and the foundation of music, without him would we have B Dylan?
|
 | 2112 by Rush
Buy new: $7.97 / Used from: $2.88 Hardly anybody involved with country including any of the country greats was asked cept' for Chet Flippo, Tim B Schmit (Eagles,) Chris Hilman, thus explains lack of C/W..Rush was also totally ignored
|
 | Dirt by Alice in Chains
Buy new: $7.97 / Used from: $1.95 Problem with this list was way too many albums from 60's and hip-hop...Dirt was an all time grunge classic, AIC was also ignored, Just sickening!
|
 | At San Quentin by Johnny Cash
Buy new: $7.97 / Used from: $3.47 In the magazine under each album listed is the no. of copies each one sold and the chart positon. interesting...How could this one been left out and Folsom be so high up?
|
 | Blues by Jimi Hendrix
Buy new: $9.97 / Used from: $6.10 Ok who are Echo and the Bunnymen, Husher Du, and the Pouges?...Jimi himself had only 3 on it, Everybody inthe world should have this, its a grt collection of studio and live blues peformances.
|
 | American IV: The Man Comes Around by Johnny Cash
Buy new: $10.97 / Used from: $5.99 In conclusion everybody likes different music so I'm sure that everybody had certain stuff they felt were left out...Not seeing this one really hurts. I cant believe it! John R Cash RIP
|
 | Buddy's Blues (Chess 50th Anniversary Collection) by Buddy Guy
Buy new: $7.97 / Used from: $4.50 In conclusion this list was pretty good had a lot of grt albums, but i was disapointed halfway through it I wanted to vomit on the mag...BGuy is one of the alltime blues legends, amazing guitarplaya
|
 | Texas Flood by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble
Buy new: $7.97 / Used from: $4.99 Stevie Ray Vaughn was suprisingly left off, in the 1980's he singlehandly started a blues revival. This is his debt record. Contains classics such as "Pride and Joy," "Texas Flood," .
|
 | Stevie Ray Vaughan - Greatest Hits by Stevie Ray Vaughan
Buy new: $8.97 / Used from: $2.98 Stevie Rav Vaughn artist of the 80's so forget Prince, Madonna, and whoever else. He was so talented. This collection should of had more songs though
|
 | Core by Stone Temple Pilots
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $1.20 A 90's rock n' roll classic. I was shocked to not see this or any other STP albums. Really good from beg-end with little filler.
|
 | Ropin' the Wind by Garth Brooks
Buy used from: $2.04 Garth was the most popular thing from country in the 90's and early 00's. For someone that has sold 100+ million albums its suprising to not see him on it. Every song is very good and radio worthy.
|
 | Fashion Nugget by Cake
Buy new: $8.97 / Used from: $3.49 I'm no fool I wasn't fooled by that supid 500 list. I know this is one of the grt albums to come out. Very catchy stuff, jazz fuzed rock with humors lyrics.
|
 | Absolutely Live by The Doors
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $3.00 This was on original live lp recorded in 70' with complete celebration of the lizard and good rare tracks. Kind of obselete since its been put on "In Concert,"
|
 | Made In Japan: The Remastered Edition by Deep Purple
Buy new: $17.99 / Used from: $7.17 Deep Purple was also left out. Beware this album is rather bloated. This was a great concert recored in 72'. "Highway Star," really blew me away as the rest of the album did
|
 | Jimi Hendrix: Blue Wild Angel Live at the Isle of Wight (Digipak) by Jimi Hendrix
Buy used from: $8.97 Sadly this was Jimi's last concert performance. This is a very important document in music. The complete concert is here and you can feel the heart and soul of Hendrix bleeding through his guitar.
|
 | The Complete Blind Willie Johnson by Blind Willie Johnson
Buy new: $16.99 / Used from: $11.16 I don't think a single blues great was polled and hardly anybody involved with blues was ethier. This guy was the real original king of the delta blues singers.
|
 | Jars of Clay by Jars of Clay
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $1.39 Last but not least, this christain rock great from this mid-90's "Flood," was also popular on mainstream radio. Hope you enjoyed my list
