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.

    VH1 and 1984 are included. Not sure what else you'd have in? Maybe VHII or Women and Children.

    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.
