Who Should Stay And Who Should Go (response to Robert Dimery's 1001 albums list)
I felt the book overall was about, say, (?%) accurate. So here is a list of albums that should go in favour of a stronger album and perhaps some that have been overlooked. NOTE: I am allowing anthologys/various artist collections to help make sure otherwise overlooked genres like R&B, girl groups, etc. get proper attention.
HERE’S WHAT I WOULDYANK:
- ROLLINGSTONES "Exile on Main Street"
- TODDRUNDGREN "A Wizard, A True Star"
- NEWYORKDOLLS "New York Dolls"
- SHUGGIEOTIS "Inspiration Information"
- PATTISMITH "Horses"
- PETERFRAMPTON "Frampton Comes Alive"
- DAVIDBOWIE "Low"
- SEXPISTOLS "Never Mind the Bollocks.."
- B-52s "B-52s"
- FLEETWOODMAC "Tusk"
- DEADKENNEDYS "Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables"
- SOFTCELL Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret
- THEMINUTEMEN Double Nickels on the Dime
