A pretty glaring omission

I would switch #1 and #2 – but it’s a minor quibble.

The 4 album Rod/Faces run of Every Picture Tells a Story > Nod> Never a Dull Moment > Ooh La La is one of my favorites in rock n roll.

great pick for album of the week.

one album which deserved to be included in the notables is Haiku Salut’s impressive debut, Tricolore.

An all-female instrumental trio from England, they offer up the clumsy self-description of “Baroque-Pop-Folktronic-Neo-Classical-Something-Or-Other” – but I can’t do any better.

The album is filled with uplifting, complex-yet-accessible compositions perfect for springtime. And it’s available on Spotify.

Blue Monday is the greatest song of the 80s IMO.

I was a bit iffy about Breakers at first, mainly because of how produced the “oooh”s sound in comparison to the vocal harmonies on GM. Then I saw this acoustic performance of it & was won over.

i can’t wait for Stereogum’s Top 10 list of Chuck Berry songs, omitting Johnny B. Goode.

That’s a great idea! Too bad your suggestion is a biography, not a documentary.

Wait, I’ve got one! “End of the Century – The Story of the Ramones”

I don’t get it. Has Chris not heard what’s going on in underground bass music in the UK? Or is he just taking an easy potshot at Skrillex/Deadmau5/Swedish House Mafia etc?

I think you overrated 29 and underrated Rock n Roll, but otherwise pretty spot-on.

“In White’s catalog, the album it most resembles is probably the White Stripes’ piano-and-marimba affair Get Behind Me Satan.”

Consolers of the Lonely seems a stronger touch-point.
