Pick your greatest music artist of all time whose name does not come up in search and add an album or song by them.
Is the "by an artist that doesn't already appear in the search" part of the real criteria, or just something you thought would be fun to restrict for the purpose of this thread?
Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart,very strange that's in there.It's actually a good album, it's one of the weirdest albums ever made.It was a very unconventional album the way it was produced in the studio,Frank Zappa produced it but was frustrated by Beefhearts bizarre recording demands like recording each instrument in a different room and deadening the drums with cardboard. It sounds like total trash the first couple of listens, than sounds interesting after a few more.Unique album for sure.
Yep. You're preaching to the converted-- I think it's a full blown masterpiece. Just didn't expect the inclusion.
Yeah, I was going to post in the last album thread, but it's really continued to skyrocket for me over the last little while. In fact, it's getting really close to becoming my favorite album of all time now. I think it's his most pure, unbridled, inspired, and liberating work, and I've completely lost any reservations I had about there being one or two tracks that I had a tougher time with or it being harsh on the ears. It's pretty much everything I can possibly ask for in an album.
