Why did you include those Bootsy albums, furthermore, I'm not sure if all those albums are that great.

I think a lot of people count those Bootsy albums as part of the whole Parliafunkadlicment thang. And the output there is amazing, but I'd say there are weak spots in the run when compared to, say, Stevie's 70s output (but probably as many amazing records).

Btw, I'm only familiar with Al Green from his hits and Green is Blues, but you're so adamant on the subject I know what I'll be listening to all day tomorrow.

You should do that.

Somebody might have posted this already, but what about Steely Dan? Probably because of The Royal Scam or Guacho, some people would say no. Me personally, i would include everything from Can't buy a Thrill to Gaucho.

However, probably for me, I'd go with Earth, Wind and Fire. Prince, Stevie Wonder and Steely Dan are in there also.

Oh, and The Isley Brothers.

Rest in Peace Bettie Boo. See u soon.

Albums, not songs.

More Songs About Buildings And Food

Fear Of Music

Remain In The Light

Speaking In Tongues

Little Creatures

True Stories

(Naked)



including the fantastic live-albums



The Name Of This Band...

Stop Making Sense



this is a great run


Except True Stories is not great at all.

There's a fair argument that their run ends at either Remain in Light or Speaking in Tongues.
