Everybody’s Top 5 - Vinyl

The last several months seem to see several plays of...
Donald Fagen- The NightflyRolling Stones- Exile on Main Street
Bob Dylan- Blood on the Tracks
Peter Kaukonen- Black Kangaroo
Frank Zappa- Bongo Fury   Next week it may be a different 5 that gets played to death for a few months.

The Beatles, Meet the Beatles
Allman Brothers, Live at the Fillmore
The Who, Who’s Next
Led Zeppelin, first
Jimi Hendrix, Are you Experienced

Right now my two favorites are two recent acquisitions:
1. Leonard Cohen—“Live in London”, and
2. Moby—“Reprise”

That said, I’m just now rediscovering my vinyl collection after a 39-year hiatus to digital. And I add more every payday. So, I expect my list of five favorites will evolve indefinitely.

Gene Clark, White Light
Jimmy Cliff, The Harder they Come
Miles-Sketches of Spain or In a Silent Way
Stones, Exile on Main Street
Clash, London Calling

Very honorable mentions
 Nick Drake, Five Leaves Left
Santana, Caravanserai
Radiohead, Ok Computer

John Coltrane "A Love Supreme
Wayne Shorter "Speak No Evil"
Rolling Stones "Let It Bleed"
Marvin Gaye "What’s Going On"
Janis Joplin "Cheap Thrills"
Emmylou Harris ""Wrecking Ball"

Okay, that’s six, but I couldn’t figure out which one to eliminate. Got Jazz, Blues, R&B, Rock and Roll, and Country in there anyway.
