Rainbowshappen's "Obligatory attempt to list my 50 favorite albums of all time"They’re limited to one per band/artist. And they’re in no particular order. And I make no apologies for the – um, what’s the word? Quirkiness, probably – of this list. Old faves, recent discoveries, albums I cannot believe I didn’t listen to years earlier, and just plain weird shit that somebody has to love. But as they say, there’s no accounting for taste. |
