      @northernnarwhal I just like how you called me a pleb for saying an Eagles album then a few years back you said a Beach Boys album

        @skyllie WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH HOLD THE PHONE. Are you actually implying Beach Boys are pleb?

          @northernnarwhal They're exactly as pleb as the Eagles.

              @northernnarwhal You're wrong and you should feel wrong.

                @skyllie The Beach Boys were ahead of their time. They revolutionized music, and music production, as we know it today. All those indie pop bands you love might as well be writing Brian Wilson royalty checks every damn month because he flipped the industry on it's freakin' head. They bridged the gap between artful pop music experimentation and commercial appeal, and wrote some of the most important music of their era. They, especially later in their career, defied genre and consistently challenged their fans with innovative yet idiosyncratic ideas. Without the Beach Boys music would most definitely NOT be the same.

                    @skyllie Brian Wilson did more for pop music than Michael Jackson. Let that sink in.

                              @northernnarwhal To be honest I only even said Hotel California because I couldn't think of any other albums from 1976

                                @skyllie The Modern Lovers was an obvious pick for me from that year

                                  @northernnarwhal My knowledge of music from that year in particular is incredibly sparse apparently. I mean, Songs in the Key of Life was that year, but that was never my favorite Steview Wonder album

                                      @northernnarwhal Which happens to be my favorite. That and Hotter than July. I even like Innervisions more than Key of Life.

                                          @northernnarwhal It's an underrated album of his too. Everyone just raves about Key of Life, which isn't even a great album, just has a few super catchy songs.

                                            @skyllie Yeah, I like Key of Life but it's far from his best, my favourite's always been Talking Book. It had his most eclectic instrumentation and songwriting.

                                      @northernnarwhal I mean that's good but it's not my favorite Bowie album. Also I thought for sure that was 75.

                                        @skyllie It was really early 76, recorded in 75 though.

                                            @skyllie Young Americans came out in 75 though. I have that on vinyl and love it.

                                              @northernnarwhal 75 had a lot of great albums. Mothership Connection, that Elton John album with a name too long to bother typing, Blood on the Tracks, Wish you Were Here, Young Americans (which IS my favorite Bowie album), Kate and Anna McGarrigle, Rubycon... I could go on.

                                                @skyllie Don't forget Another Green World, Tonight's the Night, Horses, One Size Fits All, and Man-Child. Also, Young Americans isn't my favourite Bowie record but I do love it a lot. It's really damn hard to pick a favourite but currently I'd say either Low or Scary Monsters.

                                                            @skyllie It wasn't bad but it felt incredibly alienating, and a lot of the covers on it were pretty weak in my opinion too.

                                                                            Saturday, 24-Jan-15 02:17:04 UTC from web
