Everybody’s Top 5 - Vinyl

re RT: he does float my boat on several levels. Lucky to have caught him live in large and small venues alike. I particularly like the Live in Austin TX CD. 

There are any number of guitarists, blazingly fast with incredible technical skills that I find boring as oatmeal frappe….I don’t dwell on them, nor insist that you ignore…..

carry on

Since I'm seeing a dearth of RB/Soul/Pop, I'll list my top five in this category:
Michael Jackson - Thriller
Marvin Gaye - What's Going On
Prince - Purple Rain
Stevie Wonder - Hotter than July
Anita Baker - Rapture

Jazz:
Oliver Nelson - The Blues and the Abstract Truth
Cannonball Adderley - Somethin' Else
Dexter Gordon - The Other Side of Round Midnight
Miles Davis - Kinda Blue
Kenny Burrell - Blue Midnight

Metallica- Black Album / and Justice for All
Megadeth -Rust in Peace / Peace Sells
Slayer - Reign in Blood /South of Heaven
Overkill - Taking Over / I hear Black
Michael Jackson - Bad / Thriller

Been reading what’s on everyone’s turntable tonight and got to wondering…what’s your top 5?

My top 5 for tonight from vintage vinyl, all records recorded incredibly well, but linked fines on youtube below are not from my records :) 

I will post specific tunes that I like from the albums:


1. Donald Byrd - Love's So Far Away (1973) LISTEN

2. The Staple Singers & Curtis Mayfield - Big Mac (1975) LISTEN

3. Gil Scott-Heron - Inner City Blues (1981) LISTEN

4. Azymuth - Estreito De Taruma (1982) LISTEN 

5. Daniel Janin - Black Night (1975) LISTEN

NOT A TOP FIVE, 5 that came to my head first which i like to spin!


 Dark Angel - darkness descends. 
Slayer - hell awaits. 
Bathory- the return...

Onslaught - the force

Venom - welcome to hell / black metal / possessed

300 more, a top five is impossible.
