It may not be as heavy as a lot of our preferences, but it’s one of the most important record albums of all time, and with one of the most interesting stories behind it. It’s one of those things you need to hear for context more than anything else. Rumours is in the same vein as Moving Pictures for me: the most famous and most beloved album by the mainstream that I love from start to finish. I think Rumours is one of the GREATEST pop/rock albums ever written. Same with Carole King's Tapestry. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

launchpad67a Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Can't argue too much with that list. All solid choices. I own 7 of the 10. Great records! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue J Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 I have six of the ten that are on that list, but I don’t care, really. I agree it’s slanted too heavily in favor of one particular era (even at the same time that I’ll agree the first half of the 1970s had SO much going on, in rock and roll). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymaker Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 8 out of 10, but I hardly listen to any of them any more. Looks like an idea for a poll . . . what would TRF's top ten essentials be? Too much math for me, but I'd be interested to see the result. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
