#177 Miles Davis – Bitches Brew

Miles Davis is back with Bitches Brew. Some of these artist are overly represented. This is Davis’ fourth album on the list. They have progressively gotten better, but I want to hear other artist. I think this book of 1001 Albums… should move people to check out new music and honour great artists over the […]

#175 Creedence Clearwater Revival – Cosmo’s Factory

Cosmo’s Factory is the third album on this list from Creedence Clearwater Revival. I hated the previous two so I doubt I will like this one. I do to like their country rock music and I hate John Fogerty’s voice. All these songs sounded the same to me. This is literally like Zoolander’s calendar. They […]

#176 Derek And The Dominos – Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs

Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs was from Derek And The Dominos a new band from Eric Clapton after he left Blind Faith and a host of other groups. He was in a lot of bands in the 60s. If he was a woman they would say he gets around a lot. This is the only […]

#174 Frank Zappa – Hot Rats

I hate Frank Zappa‘s other albums on this list with his band Mothers of Invention. I am sure I will feel the same for his solo album Hot Rats. Luckily, this is the last album on the list of 1001 Albums.. for the 60s. I am hoping to find some great gems in the 70s. […]

#173 Alexander ‘Skip’ Spence – Oar

Alexander ‘Skip’ Spence is one of those artist I have never heard of before today. Yet, he had a great career in the music business prior to his single solo effort Oar. He played the drums on the first Jefferson Airplane album, the guitarist in Quicksilver Messenger Service, and he was the co-founder of Moby […]

#172 The Stooges

The Stooges exploded on the scene in 1969 with their landmark proto-punk album The Stooges. Lead singer Iggy Stooge aka Iggy Pop would become known for his unpredictable stage antics. He is the “Godfather of Punk“. I do think I even need to review this album. If you like punk, then you should have listened to […]

#171 Scott Walker

Scott Walker is back again. And with another album that is numbered. Walker originally released Scott 4 under his real name Noel Scott Engel. It failed to chart so it was deleted. Some critics believe this is his best work. I hope it is better than Scott 2. Baroque singing style is unique and requires one to love […]

#170 Leonard Cohen – Songs From A Room

Leonard Cohen‘s Songs From A Room is his second album on this list. I was not impressed with his previous one and I have doubts about this one too. The problem with Cohen is that he cannot sing. Some may say that Bob Dylan cannot sing either, but I disagree. Dylan can carry a tune, […]

#169 King Crimson – In the Court of the Crimson King (An Observation by King Crimson)

I have never heard of King Crimson or if I did they did not make an impression on me. More than likely I have not heard of them because they were not around long and they were a progressive rock band. They became a band in 1968 and split up in 1974. There were many reunions […]

#168 The Kinks – Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire)

Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire) is The Kinks return to the list. I did not think they would appear again after their last album’s failure to chart. Frontman Ray Davies created a concept soundtrack album for a British play, but it was cancelled before it was produced. This album was another […]
