Me too. I cannot listen to his music. I don’t understand why he still gets constant airplay.


Because his songs are that good.

Why does Roman Polanski still get to direct movies?

Old guy here. Not true, I hoard CDs, too!


Old guy has apparently lived a pretty segregated life.

Thanks to this thread and this post.

I’ve heard most of these but not this one and listened last night.

Just looked at both playlists, I adore Off the Wall but Thriller is definitely the masterpiece.

Nirvana - Nevermind
Pearl Jam - 10
Dr Dre - The Chronic (really tied w/ 2001, though)
Outkast - Aquemini
Guns N Roses - Appetite for Destruction
Weezer - Blue

God, I miss the days when we would pop in a tape or CD and listen to the ENTIRE album. Those days are long gone.


We could be friends, or the same person


Were you born in 1979? Appetite for Destruction is still an album that I can listen to from start to finish when going for a run - 35 years later. It is amazingly good.

And I have still not heard anything that sounds like Aquemini. Complete genius.


Agree with these, plus John Meyer - Continuum

Adding the Fugees - The Score

Similarly, super excited for Sunday's superbowl show

- born in Jan 1980

I know country doesn't get much love here, but need to add:

Garth Brooks - No Fences

Johnny Cash - At Folsom Prison

That was my first thought, especially as the lists grew longer. But, if Old Guy is really old, his lists might be heavily influenced by growing up listening to racially segregated radio stations— an influence that younger folks, fortunately, might find almost impossible to imagine.

NP. Disagree. I’ve seen Liz Phair perform and I love her, but song for song, JLP > EiG

Legally speaking, stations play MJ because he was found not guilty in a court of law and the suits from the never land movie accusers were dismissed. Roman is and still remains a fugitive.

From a moral perspective, you are free to draw your own conclusions about MJ.

If you’re a jazz aficionado then

Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme
Bill Evans - Waltz for Debby

I wasn’t even born when these came out! Still listening to these over several decades.
