ATTENTION ALL YOU FEWLZ WHO HAVE POSTED YOUR FAVZ!

I have a sorta funny question to ask all of you.

What is your least favorite track from each of these favorite albums?


Well the reason these are my top faves is because if you put me on a deserted island with them and told me I would never have new music again in life, I could play them all forward and backwards without having to skip any songs or get bored. And some of these albums are 10-20 years old! hmmm

I was listening to that last night. biggrin

I also love these albums from Todd (besides the one I mentioned):







I just got Todd's collection,I will be checking him out starting tonight.

(Especially "Fair Warning", I love how it segued back to "Real Man", which really was the particular end of that side of the record, the last track filled up side B.)

And this one prior to Something/Anything was great too:

Yeah and if someone don't love Stevie, we kick their ass. lol


I love so many albums that my top 20 would be like, the top of the top of the iceberg.

It might not even have Stevie Wonder in the top 20! eek

Yes his music makes me split from my body and go astral traveling, cloud9

but

I'm a hip hop dude.

I wholly agree. No one else could ever come up with chords and melodies as complicated, beautiful, driven, yet still as catchy as huck. He remains #1 on my list of the greatest artist of all time. Yeah, it's a little weird that my gap between Innervisions and Songs in the Key of Life is so broad, but that's just to give the other little artists a push. wink

You can't lose with either one, but for me, 'Innervisions' is tighter.

Greatest...Well, I'll say my 20 Favorite albums of all-time...at least, this week, lol






I LOVE this album. 25 years later and the first track always gets me cackling with laughter.



lol I know- Forward March!

I think that anybody who was ever in a grade school/high school marching band--or anybody who had to sit there and listen to one--would appreciate the humor on that!
