Stealing Your Riffs
We covered 2000 to 2024 in that other thread. That means we have to move backwards to cover a different quarter century of music.
List 10 (no more than 10 nerds) favorite albums released between 1/01/1974 and 12/31/1999. List using your words. No particular order required.
Post pics or videos if you want. Folk those individuals on AOL dial up! They can sit and wait for their screens to load.
Post albums meaningful to you however you define it. Please try not to pick the same band or artist more than once for your list. Mix it up. Thanks.
I’ll come back to post mine. I need time to think about it.
(edit) I tried to type out the first album that came to mind in each year. I made a list. It’s certainly not some definitive list. I still don’t have a list of only 10. I may just have to pick 10 at random from this larger list.
