The law of equivalent exchange exists. I love the fact that you added Queen I (an underrated debut, in my opinion); but, you missed out on Quadrophenia.

Do you have any interest in Genesis? I really like Nursery Cryme.

Some bands I can think of are Zebra, Coney Hatch, Kick Axe, La Chinga, Spell, and Blood Ceremony. The last three are still recording and releasing but these days it takes time before a new album comes out.

Great topic idea and cool picks! Creed gets a lot of flack. I have one album and I really like a few of the songs on it.

Queen's first album is great and surprisingly pretty heavy for them which i think is cool. house of the holy is also a big favorite for me to

1973 was the best year for post-Beatles music: Red Rose Speedway and Band on the Run by Paul; Living in the Material World by George; Mind Games by John; and Ringo by Ringo. When you take your deep dive into Wings, you can skip the first album (Wild Life), but all the others, from Red Rose Speedway to Back to the Egg, are great fun, with interesting changes from album to album.

A few more for consideration: Simon and Garfunkel: Only five albums, but a major part of '60s folk rock, and Paul Simon went on to have a major solo career. Sex Pistols: Another single album band, not a huge personal fan, but undeniably massive influence on punk. The Velvet Underground: Hugely influential if not very popular '60s band. Technically has 5 albums, but the 5th was all session musicians with one replacement band member, so not sure if that counts. Rage Against the Machine: Major '90s protest rock band, only put out four albums. I don't know if you count solo acts or are maybe planning a different list for them, but here's an idea for that: Jeff Buckley: Well regarded '90s musician who only managed a single studio album before he died, although a lot more was released posthumously. If you include Rap, NWA and Fugees each only had two studio albums, as did Biggie before his death, while 2Pac only released four albums before he died. Finally, a couple personal favorites that I might put on my own list, but aren't particularly notable: Mellow Candle: '60s Irish prog folk group that only released a single album that I recently discovered and fell in love with. I'm With Her: Incredible Bluegrass female supergroup with only one album released so far.

🎉what a little bit of a wonderful day also what a fantastic video have a wonderful day ❤😊

Definitely better songs by Metallica than Enter Sandman- including on the black album itself (e.g. Unforgiven, my friend of misery).

For me there are so many great 80s songs but all we ever hear is Take on Me by A-Ha 🙄 A-ha has far better songs that that one (e.g. scoundrel days, sun always shines on tv, living daylights). Listen to Scoundrel Days and see how much better that song is.

jethro tull is a very good band with many albums that sound so different from each other. and madman across the water might be one of my favorite elton john albums. gentle giant put out an album that year called acquiring the taste and as the title suggest. it is very much an acquired taste but i love it.

Great list. Here are my top 5: 1. Dark Side Of The Moon 2. Animals 3. Wish You Were Here 4. The Wall 5. The Division Bell I rarely listen to the pre-Dark Side albums even though I’m an old guy (The Wall was released when I was in college).

I've got to go with Wish You Were Here Dark Side of the Moon Meddle Animals Great lists though

This guy is a tool. Steely Dan mentioned in same breath as Floyd is funny. The Wall number 12 is funny. Had to turn off. Reco ds with out Waters are not Floyd

early chicago is awesome and that first album is honestly one of their best to. and of course i love the rest that was shown here are amazing. 2 odd ball ones i love that came out that year is High Tide - Sea Shanties . its a fairly obscure band that put out a very heavy album for the 60's which is kinda crazy and if i had to describe it. its like the doors meets black sabbath. the other one i love believe it or not is The BeeGees - Odessa. the early stuff they did is completely different then the disco stuff that everyone knows them for and that is an album that really surprised me. best way i can sum it up is like the beatles and the kinks where its nothing heavy but is very much baroque pop which i love

Pink Floyd is the band that got me to love music in general so they are a huge favorite for me and i love every album, of course some more then others but even the lesser favorites are still better then some bands best. The Nile song from More is so great that it felt like it came from decades later. The Wall is probably my 4th favorite album but i think out of those 26 songs, maybe 4 of them are skippable for me and thats pretty impressive for a double album. but i think most love it for its story and themes. but im happy to see some love for A Saucerful Of Secrets, atom heart mother and obscured by clouds and yes i love the song corporal clegg its so weird but catchy and gets stuck in my head. i think Wish You Were Here are is my number 1 favorite since it was the first album of theirs i ever own and i never get tired of any of the tracks i never skip anything on it

For me, The Wall is hands down their best. I can understand not liking some of the songs on there but when you have a double album with that many iconic songs, you’re bound to want to skip a handful of them when you put the album on. I love all the songs on there and I listen to the album straight through because if any album can be considered “an experience”, it’s The Wall. Seeing Roger Waters perform the album live is hands down the best concert experience I’ve ever had and I’ve been to over 100 concerts in my life. It’s just such an incredible production and it brings the whole story together visually. It makes those “skippable” songs so much more enjoyable. Ive actually always found Dark Side to be a bit overrated, at least in terms of the rest of their discography. I’ve also seen Roger perform this album in full live, and even though I loved it, it did not compare to The Wall. It’s undeniably an iconic album, though. If I had to rank my top 5 it would go: 5. Meddle 4. Dark Side 3. Wish you were here 2. Animals 1. The Wall

Seeing Green Day in August

Also, I tried to start figuring out my top 10 albums while watching this....holy crap is that difficult lol. My #1 is easy, and maybe even the top few, but then it gets so hard to narrow down! I've always been a big albun listener so have a ton of beloved albums to choose from.

I'll have to check out that Haken album, I'm not huge on Prog as you know, but I have liked a few of their songs! Rumors and Boston...yeah those are pretty perfect albums lol. I think I'm just going to be forced to listen to Steely Dan to see why you like them so much, very much one of those bands I know only the really well known song lol

I definitely have not heard of Fanny, will have to check them out. Yeah my wife hates that song 🤣Paranoid is definitely THE Black Sabbath album for me. Well I'm not really familiar with that CCR album, so will have to check it out! I do need to listen to more Deep Purple, I like pretty much every song I know by them lol

I had no idea all of those CCR songs were from the same year, that's crazy! They just got all their hits out right away hahaha

Been to far too many gigs and festivals over years to list them all but listed some of my favourite memories below: London Grammar @ Leeds fest in 2013 - last band of a great weekend in a side tent after most had headed back to campsite and was blown away. DMA's at westgarth social club in middlesbrough just after release of their debut ep, small venue & crowd but everyone knew they were gonna be bigger. Radiohead at Leeds in 09 - in rainbows (enough said) Kasabian @ bar m, ibiza 2006. Unbelievable seeing them in such a tiny venue Blossoms, The Lathums & The Magic Gang @ Newcastle - first gig post lockdown restrictions, joyous singalong all night. Watched Green Day @ this years Isle of Wight at weekend (just on tv unfortunately) & they were great i thought

Thats just like your opinion man. Really tho this is just a bad take for some of these bands and shows your lack of music appreciation. This is like me thinking Dave Mathews sucks bc its for pussies when I was a teenager and then realizing the talent as an adult.

I mean maybe you just need some more KISS albums in your life /s

Foreigner Jukebox Heroes album was a greatest hits? Yeah Disturbed there best was the first 3 or 4 Albums, minus Album 2.. Prayer... but the other albums are all great, the newest are not as good

It's weird thinking of The Zombies having other songs 😂 I don't know about my favorite album, but Born To Be Wild and Mrs. Robinson are definitely up there for songs for me.

Very good list! Will be fun to follow along with this series!

What's with the 80's hate lmao, I love so much music from the 80's lol

All my fav drummers are metal drummers. Kai Hahto is #1 with a background in Jazz so he improvises quite beautifully. Also, Spencer Prewett, Andrew Baird, both Mike’s from Dream Theater and Alex Rudinger to name a few. I love The Rev too and he actually helped inspire me to start drumming

Do you like Alice In Chains (they're my favorite band )

Great list! Especially like the inclusion of Steve Gadd in the top 3. Also, I agree with your ranking of Neil Peart despite what my friends say :) Here are my Top 3: 1. Carter Beauford (Dave Matthews Band) 2. Phil Collins (Genesis, Brand X, Solo) 3. Gavin Harrison (Porcupine Tree, The Pineapple Thief, King Crimson)

Could not see this list coming :) not the fact of top ten drummers, but who they are :)

🎉🎉🎉🎉

Not a strong year for music 😅

Hi Jake, I wonder if you know Steven Wilson and his album the Raven that refuses to sing, great video, keep it up.

Im getting the feeling they just had some unpaid interns throwing darts at a wall for this list.

Such a strange list. As you said, they didn’t seem to take legacy into considering with all these new albums up so high, which I think is really strange. If they’re giving some artists two albums, I would’ve put Achtung Baby by U2 here as well. I’m a massive fan of theirs (in very fascinated with the Edges style), and I think Achtung Baby is their best. Would’ve put Magical Mystery Tour instead of Revolver. Would’ve put Ride the Lightning instead of Master of Puppets. Nevermind is probably the more influential album, but I prefer In Utero. I would’ve also added Let’s Dance by David Bowie, but I love Ziggy Stardust. Would’ve put Speaking in Tongues by Talking Heads instead of Remain in Light. I think Reggatta De Blanc by The Police should’ve been here. Also, I cannot believe that there was no ABBA. Either Arrival, Voulez-Vous or Super Trouper should’ve been here.

Oh Third Stage is epic... Also the Wall for me was better and with Zepplin any of the first 8 Albums will work :)

While it wouldn't be in my top 10 I agree every song on Boston is a banger! Dark Side of the Moon is so good, I have a more nostalgic connection to The Wall but I love Dark Side too. Have you ever done the Wizard of Oz sync up? I come from the Dookie era of Green Day but am not one of those that did not like American Idiot, I think it's a great album! I love when bands evolve. Have you heard the Broadway recording of the American Idiot musical? Really well done.

I, unfortunately, am one of those that really only knows Smoke on the Water from Deep Purple. That is definitely a blind spot for me as is Steely Dan. BloodSugarSexMagic is the album where RHCP really found themselves. I got fairly into Zeppelin in the 90's when I started playing guitar, Jimmy Page was a must listen to if you were guitar player, but I never really stuck with them. Pink Floyd would probably be in my top 10, I've never really thought beyond top 5 which are: 5. The Posies 4. Queen 3. Epica 2. Metallica 1. The Beatles

Nirvana - Nevermind is easy top 10 for me

Revolver. Every song is great except Yellow Submarine, that's a skip for me 😅

Deep Purple should be higher! Smoke on water got me into them, but your right so many more great songs, love them. Sweet child in time is my favorite... RHCP your dad had greatest hits... I feel so old now, who is Chad smith? the drummer is Will Ferrell!!!

Here's a playlist of a few songs from each artist in my top 10! open.spotify.com/playlist/1CVX8TF6M0Y029xXEq0q3v?si=46df5f019ef54c1b

Great list! Love both Mikes from Dream Theatre and Green Day is awesome. Led Zeppelin rocks 🤘🏽

Elton John was my first concert!

Highway Star is a jam Father of All is way better than that new crap, sounds like AI Green Day 😂

Loved this! Lots of bands I’ve heard of but haven’t listened to a ton of. Would love if you made a playlist for the description of this video of your top songs to introduce the bands!

Good choices My top 10 Beatles/Beach Boys Michael Jackson Led Zeppelin Def Leppard Pink Floyd David Bowie Kiss Elton John Blue Oyster Cult The Rolling Stones
