Inspirational Song

Day 75: ‘What song inspires you the most?” This is a subjective question. What do you mean by inspires me? Inspires to do something good? Inspires me to do something dangerous? Or inspires me to make a life decision? I guess I should choose one. One of the most inspirational song for me, especially later […]

#330 Led Zeppelin – Physical Graffiti

Physical Graffiti is the sixth album from Led Zeppelin, but only their fifth on the list of 1001 Albums… Somehow, they editors of this book left off one of the best albums Houses of the Holy. I will do a list of the best albums they missed and add it in my list after I am […]

#226 Led Zeppelin – The Fourth Album

Is it wrong to title Led Zeppelin‘s album The Fourth Album if it is not actually titled anything? This is their fourth album on the list I think. This is the album everyone wants to hear at some point in their youth. We all know the songs (or should I say the song) on this album. […]

#187 Led Zeppelin – Led Zeppelin III

This is Led Zeppelin‘s third album and third on the list. The odds are in their favour. Will this be as good as the previous two albums? How can a band make three albums in three years and be great? Artist today take three or more years between albums. Led Zeppelin III kicks butt in the […]

#157 Led Zeppelin – Led Zeppelin II

In 1969, Led Zeppelin gave us a debut album and Led Zeppelin II. Isn’t that weird that today it takes years to get another album from all artist and in the 60s and 70s they were so prolific. Will this album be any good, since it was in the same year? Or will it be like […]

#155 Led Zeppelin

Led Zeppelin is the band and the eponymous debut album. I was super excited when I saw them in the list of 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. At the time of its release the critics wrote mostly harsh things in regards to the album and the band members. Rolling Stone magazine writer John Mendelsohn was […]

#128 Jeff Beck – Truth

Jeff Beck? How did he make it on the list I wondered. He is known for his guitar work. I hope this is not a guitar album. I do not want to listen to someone just playing the guitar for one hour. That is my truth, but I hope Beck’s first solo album Truth is similar. […]

#118 Blue Cheer – Vincebus Eruptum

Vincebus Eruptum is an extremely weird name for an album. Or is it if your album is considered the first heavy metal album? Blue Cheer have the honour of being the proto-type for heavy metal. They took the blues, turned up the guitar all the way up to the metal level, and created a new […]

#109 The Incredible String Band – The Hangman’s Beautiful Daughter

The Incredible String Band is another band I have never heard of before toady. The title of the album The Hangman’s Beautiful Daughter is interesting enough to make one notice it. I will keep this extremely short. It is Scottish psychedelic folk music. I hated it. It reminds me of the band that jumped into […]

#98 Donovan – Sunshine Superman

Sunshine Superman from folk artist Donovan was completely unknown to me. I only knew one thing about Donovan; his daughter is Ione Skye from the classic 80s film Say Anything… One of the most interesting things about this album is that two people who played instruments on it will become super famous soon after it. Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones form Led Zeppelin in […]
