She's dead.

[madison10]

So is John Lennon.

[pissant]

True. And unfortuante IMO. LOL Without Buf. Springfield, we wouldn't have Kenny Loggins and therefore no Footloose. LOL

NWA --- "Without this ... no Eminem, no 50 Cent, no Dizzee Rascal. KE"

Sounds like we would all be better off if this album had never happened.

A top 50 albums list published in al Guardian. Aren't they afraid that by pushing decadent Western music, that they'll enrage and offend their reader base of jihadists and jihadist sympathizers?

I can't discount Loggins and Messina! Without them, one of the most interesting experiences I ever had with a drop dead beautiful blue eyed brunette might not have ever happened...

;-)))))

...of course I'm kidding!

I'd put any Motley Crue above Frampton anyday!

Most played CD by me--ever...

In case you haven't noticed, I have a diverse taste in music.

[AmishDude]

What about the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack? It made a craze out of disco (and eventually killed it).

[pissant]

But not Elvis.

[pissant]

B I N G O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pissant]

And I didn't even see Blues for Allah by the Grateful Dead on the list!

[pissant]

Well, I made out with my first girlfriend to Loving You, so we all have ourt skeletons. LOL

[pissant]

It just cracks me up that you liked the headbanging stuff. LOL. But true, better than Frampton.

[CFC__VRWC]

A bunch of burned out druggies invoking the name of Allah - if that wouldn't get some heads rolling, then nothing would.

[pissant]

You do indeed. No spinning regularly in my CD player..

[pissant]

I tried to forget that whole sorry chapter. Though I must admit disco is far superior to cRAP

[pissant]

LOL. But they weren't burned out yet at the time of the release. It's got some good tunes on it.

[pissant]

No = now

Despite missing some key music that has just been mentioned, they are just wrong about Nevermind and the Seattle scene. It was around before Nevermind. It was really started with Motherlovebone and brought effectively to the masses by Temple of the Dog. If they want to put an album that changed rock on there it would be Temple of the Dog. If for no other reason than it was a catalyst in forming Pearl Jam and showcased Chris Cornell's writing. Not a lot more you can ask for.

Zeppelin II should be on this list as well as probably Rage Against the Machine's debut. I didn't see anything about rap/rock but they are the ones who really fused it starting from rock rather than rappers using a rock beat a la Beastie Boys or Run DMC.
