treeduck Posted December 24, 2020 Author Share Posted December 24, 2020 Riiiight...This thread was Zepp's idea, I'm not sure I can do it either. The easy way would be to figure out your top 30 bands and pick your fave album by each one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiBeers Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 (edited) If it's only one album per band then it's not a true top 30 list; it's more of a favorite albums of your favorite bands list. I could limit my top 30 to about 15 bands. Edited December 24, 2020 by HemiBeers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could limit my top 30 to about 15 bands.Yeah, but a rampant fan will just stick all the albums by their fave band in the list - too easy. This way you gotta pick carefully. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zepphead Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 I have thought long and hard about this.It was tricky to choose my best one album by certain bands... but ...I ended up with 40 albums which have been important to me since I was just into my teens.The scary thing for me is that 39 of them are before 1980, and the 40th is only 1984.So here goes - 1966 Beatles - Revolver1967 Jimi Hendrix Experience - Are You Experienced1969 Fairport Convention - Liege and Lief1970 Deep Purple - In Rock1970 Mountain - Climbing!1971 Alice Cooper - Killer1971 Led Zeppelin - IV1971 The Who - Who's Next1972 Black Sabbath - Vol. 41972 David Bowie - The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars1972 Jethro Tull - Thick As A Brick1972 Neil Young - Harvest1972 Rolling Stones - Exile On Main St.1972 Uriah Heep - Demons and Wizards1972 Wishbone Ash - Argus1972 Yes - Close To The Edge1973 Genesis - Selling England By The Pound1973 Lynyrd Skynyrd - Pronounced Lynyrd Skynyrd1973 Mike Oldfield Tubular Bells1974 Blue Oyster Cult - Secret Treaties1974 Camel - Mirage1974 Robin Trower - Bridge Of Sighs1975 Bob Dylan - Blood On The Tracks1975 Bruce Springsteen - Born To Run1975 Budgie - Bandolier1975 Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here1975 Queen - A night At The Opera1976 Eagles - Hotel California1976 Jackson Browne - The Pretender1976 Judas Priest - Sad Wings Of Destiny1976 Rainbow - Rising1976 Thin Lizzy - Jailbreak1977 Bob Marley And The Wailers - Exodus1977 Fleetwood Mac - Rumours1977 Rush - A Farewell To Kings1977 UFO - Lights Out1978 Kate Bush - The Kick Inside1978 Warren Zevon - Excitable Boy1979 Scorpions - Lovedrive1984 Iron Maiden - Powerslave 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyBlaze Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 I'm not sure some people here even enjoy 30 different artists Sure they do. "List your top 30 artists" on TRF = "Top 75 artists with a 50 way tie at the #75 spot"...even though they'd put a disclaimer that the artists are in no particular order :P 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
