BEL AIR VS. FACEBOOK

I tried putting Bel Air music up on Facebook but, in order to upload songs, you have to provide 8 kinds of valid ID with pictures and raised seals.


Huh? Too hard!

So, I thought, since I could'nt bring Bel Air to Facebook, I would post a recent Facebook thing that's going around right here on our official blog. The idea is to post your top 20 most influential albums of all time. These are supposed to be albums that "had such a profound effect on you they changed your life or the way you looked at it. They sucked you in and took you over for days, weeks, months, years. These are the albums that you can use to identify time, places, people, emotions." Here's mine (in no particular order):




1. Appetite for Destruction - Guns 'n Roses
2. Thriller - Michael Jackson
3. Blue - Joni Mitchell
4. Lover Man - Carmen McRae
5. Sgt. Pepper - The Beatles
6. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot - Wilco
7. GP/Grievous Angel - Gram Parsons
8. Violator - Depeche Mode
9. Survival - Bob Marley
10. Blue Light, Red Light - Harry Connick Jr.
11. OK Computer - Radiohead
12. XO - Elliott Smith
13. Pentouse - Luna
14. Faithless Street - Whiskeytown
15. 10 - Pearl Jam
16. This Year's Model - Elvis Costello
17. Grace - Jeff Buckley
18. Car Wheels on a Gravel Road - Lucinda Williams
19. Magnolia Electric Co. - Songs:Ohia/Magnolia El.Co.
20. Black Sheep - Martin Sexton
21. Music from Big Pink - The Band

I'm not winning any originality awards here, I realize.

Maybe Jeff and Wyatt will post their top 20s, too.
