Thanks to the Observer's List of "50 Albums that Changed Music," we were inspired to create our own list. Naturally, though, we could not limit ourselves to a mere 50 entries. Furthermore, it appeared ludicrous to rate them in any order other than chronological - how can you possibly quantify the intrinsic value and historic impact of, say, Leadbelly and Ornette Coleman? Ridiculous to even try, right??? So, our list runs chronologically, and it covers the past 100 years!!!!
We start (naturally) at the beginning of recorded sound. Our intent is to present 250 shows (!!!!) and we will run them in semi-chronologiical order - meaning that next week we will move to the midpoint of our list - show #126 - and then we will return with show #2, then #127.... get it?
When we are done, we hope to have presented a fully realized account of American music culture for the past 100 years.
So, then, here is a list of songs (and suggested 'bonus' tracks for further listening) from today's show;
