what are you listening to?

[Lake View Too]

I had some time on my hands, and sat down and tried to make a list, off the top of my head, of the albums that had the most impact to me, and then I researched when they were released. Of course, this is a completely subjective exercise, but, what I found, in general, was that these albums fell into a general region I have since called "The Golden Age of Rock and Roll". From Revolver to Animals. (Not to say, there have not been fabulous albums since then, but never in such a concentrated era.) Here's my list:

1966

Revolver

1967

The Doors

Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band

Oh yes. Tiptoe Through the Tulips is a classic military marching song.

CCR doc on Netflix is super. Includes ripping it up at the 1970 Live at Albert Hall show.

The channel is also worth viewing to learn how his goal to educate has led to some interesting lessons on copyright and YouTube demonetization he passionately explains.
