Big Star #1 Record, Aerosmith Rocks, Descendents Milo Goes to College, REM Murmur, Nine Inch Nails Pretty Hate Machine, Beastie Boys Paul's Boutique, Guns N Roses Appetite for Destruction, Pavement Slanted and Enchanted, Tribe Called Quest Low End Theory
I mean, this is both an off the cuff and too long considered list? I guess this captures a certain kind of 80s transitioning into the 90s. Can't remember the last time I listened to Rocks or Appetite for Destruction but they definitely resonated deeply.
I would estimate we are the same age.
Appetite was a great record to come out for a 13 year old boy
Pavement is one of those bands I listened to soooooooo much and then one day just. . . didn't listen to them anymore for some reason. Same with Dinosaur Jr.

may or may not be the most influential but my criteria was which albums/cds stayed on the player for absurdly long amounts of time
i don't have any of this media now and only a few songs are in my rotation

A color illustration by Moebius. It shows a young man with dark hair sitting at a desk with a sheet of paper in front of him with comic frames drawn on it. Behind him is a bookcase filled with books, and to his side is a round window.
I think this is him at a much younger age than usual in his drawings
I believe you are correct! Happy Monday !!

12 panels in 3 rows of four panels each. A man (painterly, abstracted, with a wide mustache and neat hair and wearing a dinner jacket) stands before a cocktail shaker, a martini glass, and a dish holding an olive. The next panels show his frenzied shaking of the shaker, with motion blurs a-plenty. In the final panel, he is standing again, his hair blown out, in front of a completed martini. The dish is empty. There is also a bottle of Absolut visible.

Lithograph by Guy Buffet, 2000. Also, if it were really perfect it would be stirred and made with gin.

I unequivocally love this - except for the product placement, which robs it of its magic.
@MackReed Yeah, it is not dissimilar to Buffet's other work (which I looked up after seeing this) but it was commissioned by Absolut for an ad.
advertising is an underrated art medium
@y95 People within the design and marketing trade can be thoroughly convinced of the cultural value of their work. If you've ever spent time in certain design studios around awards time, you could get a good sense of how insufferable they can get about it.

I did this as fast as I could, just the first nine albums I thought of that were important to me. Pretty happy with this list, although now that I think of it, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and Boxer should probably be in here instead of the Simon & Garfunkel or the Tull
_Ágætis byrjun_ and _Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme_ were also close run things for my list.

I mean, sure, I like Throbbing Gristle but that is just too much Throbbing Gristle.
@n0wak The thought had occurred to me
@n0wak you don't want to feel like you're shitting yourself during an argument with an old woman thanks to old tapes mastered to digital for 21 hours? get gay, son.
@n0wak maybe you'd like just too much Coltrane instead? https://store.ververecords.com/products...

I tried. This is what I have. I am not as big of a fan of music as a lot of people I guess. These are more or less chronological.
1. Culture Club - Colour by Numbers - The first album I ever bought, somewhere around 5th grade. I liked several songs on it. I remember thinking that it was a lot of money for what I got, and I was the only one who wanted to listen to it.
2. Van Halen - 1984 - The first album that I listened to repeatedly in its entirety.
3. N.W.A. - Straight outta Compton - This album was huge for me and my friends in high school. The world was changing, and this album made us question everything we had previously understood about the world.
4. AC/DC - Back in Black - This is one that my older brother played a lot while he drove us to school and for a good part of a year, the tape was rarely ejected from the radio in the truck. A lot is skipped school happened with this album as the soundtrack.
5. Metallica - Ride the Lightning - This was the first "old catalog" album I ever bought and exposed me to the idea of going back to listen to other songs from an artist that didn't get popular. I became a pretty big fan of Metallica in my time in the Navy, and I could probably just plop three other Metallica albums on here because I listened to them over and over, but that doesn't seem to fit the assignment.
6. The Streets - A Grand Don't Come for Free - I just really enjoyed that this album's lyrics told a story if you listened to all the songs on order and it being British rap was a combination that was just so novel for me that I still play songs from it regularly.

It's been fun to place everyone here on the Music Obsessive Spectrum
I listened to our 1984 tape over and over! Peak David Lee Roth.
@y95 I can't say with certainly that I've listened to 25 full albums. I kind of doubt that I could name 50. There are people here who make posts that sound like "here are my top 100 reggae albums from this month" to me. I adore it that there are a lot of different voices here that can find common ground.
@travis I know many people have opinions about David Lee Roth, but my brain just says "he's a charming little cocaine scamp" when I hear his name.

A late (or possibly early?) winter scene with a small pond/large puddle reflecting yellow winter light. A grove of trees bare of leaves line the body of water.
I love this! ♡

Two pictures, one on the left showing a portion of a stovetop scene, with orange ravioli boiling in a pot of water, and on the burner in the foreground sage leaves frying in a pan with browning butter. The larger photo on the right shows a closer shot of the ravioli drained and mixed with the brown butter sage sauce in the frying pan.
Trader Joe’s pumpkin ravioli (can no longer be arsed to do it from scratch), in a brown butter sage sauce (with leaves we grew and dried three or four years ago).
Mmmmm

So, have seen a few of these and it was a thought exercise I enjoyed even if it is being used to train AI or something evil. Tomorrow I'd pick others I guess, there should be space for Burial and David Holme's Essential Mix.
And Yello.
Wish I had known about that Göttsching album when I was a high schooler rather than half a dozen years ago.
they're justified and they're ancient...and they drive an ice cream vaaaa-aaaaaan!

Devo - Freedom of Choice, Rush - Moving Pictures, The Jesus and Mary Chain - Barbed Wire Kisses, The Cure - Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me, New Order - Technique, The Dandy Warhols - ...Come Down, Depeche Mode - 101, Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique, Teenage Fanclub - Grand Prix.
Off the top of my head. Rush and Devo were the first two albums I ever owned/received as a gift in 5th grade. KMKMKM was the first CD I ever bought.

I knew a teacher who had this on a poster in his room. He’s a dick. I get why it was there because procedure is a major part of science. But jeez….

illustration art advertises children's Halloween costumes, including Secret Squirrel, Bride, Skeleton, Witch, Secret Agent, Last in Space, Frankenstein Monster, Flaming Devil, Astronaut with Helmet and Fortune Teller, priced between $0.97 and $1.88, variety candy and party props, all available at Kresge's
Maaaannnnn.... I loved me some Kresge's back in the day.
In the days before the Blue Light Special ...
I'm Secret Squirrel
oh man, the 1970s, with plastic printed costumes where the bib had a photo and words of what you were supposed to be, just in case the mask didn't actually let folks know. but only on some.... why not the secret agent, astronaut, and bride as well?
@cristin well you wouldn't be a good secret agent if you went around advertising it!
Secret AAAAGENT SQUIRREL, secret AAAAAGENT SQUIRREL, you've put all your fuckingggg nuts somewhere, and hidden them frooom yourselllllfff!
Undecided whether I should go as the astronaut pooping in their suit, or the Frankenstein that gets beat up for its bad dance moves

This original pen and ink drawing by Edward Gorey was intended as a book cover illustration for Raymond T. McNally's anthology A Clutch of Vampires. It was used instead as an interior illustration. The artwork features five gracefully floating vampires and Gorey's masterly hatching technique.

A book from Martin Cruz Smith, called Independence Square. It is his novel and take on Ukraine.
This goes down like a great big oatmeal cookie with craisins and walnuts. There is definitely good stuff in there, and can be eaten through the duration if a long tea. I guess I am a sucker for a good kriminalroman. Read it yesterday afternoon.
I did not know about the crimes against the Cossacks, and that they were driven from Crimea.

P.S. I took in Hagitude, and We Made It through The Night; to the book exchange at my coffee place. I came home with this. Now I can take this back, along with Jung To Live By, and find some other reading material.
I read a couple of his Renko books after he had sort of generated a franchise of them, and they were pretty good. I may try this one.
I read Gorky Park, twice, liked the film a lot, Brian Dennehy. Lee Marvin, William Hurt, Joanna Pakula. Pretty violent, and nevertheless compelling.
@0y3ahSansAcut3 the soundtrack did not age well,at least the parts that sound like car chases from 70's cop shows
