Topic: My top 10 Albums (not all prog) Posted: December 22 2017 at 08:28 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
I'm a child of the 70's (and technically, early 80's), so prog (and punk) are in my DNA, but all these lists have made me wonder how committed an acolyte I am. My tastes in music are very eclectic. My radio show used to have 16th century dancemusic followed by Motorhead; hour-long ambient mixes followed by The Flamin' Groovies. I started by wondering how many of my top 10 albums (if I could even remotely figure out such a list) would not be prog, and ended up wondering how many actually would be. I don't know.
Here are albums which I am reasonably confident would be in my top 10: The Kinks - Are the Village green Preservation Society Nah, I give up. For now... Edited by Braka - December 22 2017 at 08:29 |
