1001 albums you must hear before you die

[xoxoxoBruce]

Hmm, I see a lot I've never heard, a lot I have, a lot I've heard and didn't like, and a lot I don't care about. Make that 1001 albums you should consider hearing.

Back when I bought my first real component stereo I went into Philly with a list and bought a little over 100 albums. Of course these were vinyl so you had to play them in order to make sure they didn't have flaws. Talk about a marathon. I found 7 bad albums and took them back. When I handed them to the clerk, he rolled his eyes and said something sarcastic. He changed his attitude when I pulled out a three foot long receipt.
