Strider Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 So many good ones that it's hard to narrow to five. Stooges, Roxy Music, Ramones, Sex Pistols, Buzzcocks, Clash, Van Halen, Cars, Mötörhead, Joe Jackson are just some that didn't make the cut. Not counting Led Zeppelin, here are my five favourites... VU "Velvet Underground & Nico" Jimi Hendrix "Are You Experienced?" Lynyrd Skynyrd "(Pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd)" Roberta Flack "First Take" Portishead "Dummy" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John M Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 As I was putting a list together I was reminded how groundbreaking the first Doors album was. It was released in Jan 1967. Fresh Cream was a month earlier. The prior August saw Revolver. But the Doors was before all of the following. Jefferson Airplane Surrealistic Pillow - February Strawberry Fields Forever single - February Velvet Underground and Nico - March Grateful Dead first album - March Purple Haze/Wind Cries Mary single - March Are You Experienced - May Sgt Pepper's - June Piper at the Gates of Dawn - August I saw a documentary about the Doors a while back. When discussing the first album one of the narrators talked about what it was like to hear that record at that time for the first time. Hard to imagine for me because back then all I was hearing besides Top 40 AM radio was the Beatles, Beach Boys, Paul Revere and the Raiders etc. When I finally heard the Doors first album years later it was in the context of much that had come after it.
