This is good, Spitfire.
And anyone else too, good idea for future recommendations we can seek out
I’m stuck for something to do now
I’ve got my top-rated Neil Young/Crazy Horse albums somewhere. Thing is, he’s so prolific, that he’s churned out about 5 or so albums since I did that list.
How about singles? Not a top 1000 as that would take for ever but perhaps a 100? Although I suspect that would take a while, too, and it’s not always clear if an album track was released as a single in more than one country.
Or you could list bands you never got into (with reasons why).
I hope you have printed off this whole thread and made it onto a book…it should have pride of place in your man cave
A round of applause for Floydy
what a mammoth task posting 1000 album choices
Floydy I haven’t listened to every single one and I confess some of the artists I have never heard of (being someone with a classical taste for music) but I have followed your choice with interest.
Well done Floydy Quite a Magnum Opus.
By the way I still have my Fidelity stereo record player, with the stickers from DSOTM stuck on the top of them, also saw Floyd at Knebworth, (think I was still a scholl girl at the time) but sadly can’t remember too much of the great gig due to pink smoke.
Good ideas, Ffosse. No more from me though for now…I need a well-earned break I think and Tenerife is calling next weekend
People keep saying I should do that, Summer.
It wouldn’t work though because how do you transfer the videos etc? And there would be copyrights galore with the sleeves and so on. I’ve had enough to be honest
Thanks Meg, appreciated
Thank you, Maver-rik.
I’m jealous of you seeing them live though. Funny thing is, those stickers (and posters) are still packaged with the vinyl album now. I bought a new copy last year.
Just started transferring some of the videos to USB mate. It’s really fast, I’m up to Page 10 on here already
