One music and list geek's ultimate project (with a little help from his friends).


Each blog post will contain 5-10 albums making the list, starting with 300 and working up to the greatest 1. We'll have some comments on the history, influence and personal appeal of each album from myself and my cohorts in the garage slaving away over beer and smoke and listening to, in my personal opinion, the albums everyone should be listening to. Each post will also feature a review of an album NOT making my top 300 by someone who feels I am desperately mistaken for not including it. Finally, when available, I will include one comment from the previous post either praising one of my picks, tearing it apart, or offering a different album not yet listed. SO debate me, derail me, decide my musical tastes are THE GREATEST IN THE WORLD (I'm guessing less of the last option)!
