Anyone given this Pod a listen before? These guys started doing a weekly pod based on Robert Dimery's book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1001_Albums_You_Must_Hear_Before_You_Die )

It's fairly entertaining and I enjoy laughing at some of their shittier takes. All are musicians and some don't care for Jazz or Blues so it's fun to here contrarian opinions on classic albums. I'm listened to most of them through episode 54 - BB King Live at Regal. Rubber Soul is next.

    The author has some shitty taste in music. Three albums from The Smiths and five from Sonic Youth? I hate to break it to the guy, but those are 8 albums that no person needs to hear.

    Yella, if you want to hear some hot takes on the awfulness of jazz and blues just post the album up here and ol' BleachedAnusDawg will set you straight.

    I don't know that I agree with all the author's choices deserve inclusion or not. My interest is more in the podcast and these dude's reactions to various albums.

    @BleachedAnusDawg some of the takes by these guys remind me things you might say.

    Agreed, a shitty list. Too much Neil Young, Sonic Youth, and Morrisey solo. Not enough Van Halen

    Have you ever seen me and those pod hosts in the same place at the same time?

    Now I am forced to give one a listen.

    Just pick one from the late 70's or early 80s and see if it interests you. I'm still in the mid 60s and have a long way to go.

    Nothing from Van Hagar merits consideration.

    Next time you roll through White Wakanda @BleachedAnusDawg you can swing by Casa de Piss. We’ll smoke some joints and listen to John Coltrane records. Maybe @DerekJohnson can join in as he’s passing through on the way to Reno.

    Nah. Fair Warning is a fun record with some great songs, but 1984 has more classic tracks overall.

    The Sonos System at the @PurpleThrobber Guns n' Religion compound just can't compete with the YellaPiss hi fi in my shitty, little 1 bedroom White Wakanda studio apartment.

    I've listened to all these albums in great detail and feel confident in my music snob assessments.

    Fair Warning may not have as much classic tracks, but it has (arguably) their two best. Therefore, that pushes it over the edge.

    More skip tracks on 1984. Jump, Top Jimmy, I'll Wait. Also, the synth...ugh. Panama and Hot For Teacher are top-shelf VH songs, though.

    I don't get all the synth on 1984. I always thought I'll Wait could've been a kickass song played by a hard rock band rather than an 80s pop abomination.

    Hot For Teacher is the best VH song, so that's worth some points.

    Bruh, you can’t appreciate the synths on the shitty car toys stereo in your ‘85 IROC- Z.

    Best video =/= best song.

    Van Halen was not put on Earth to play shitty synth crap.

    You can make your own track order

    Mean Street
    Unchained
    Panama
    So This Is Love
    Drop Dead Legs

    Hot for Teacher
    Hear About it Later
    Top Jimmy
    Girl Gone Bad
    House of Pain

    Best. Album. Ever.
