On par with Kill Em All more

The best gift for an 18th birthday ever more
Alice In Chains -Dirt
Between a dose of heroin and listening to this record, there's no difference; one is as good as the other. more
Rush -Moving Pictures
A masterpiece of hard progressive, completely made in Canada. more
Living Colour -Vivid
At first, I thought there were only Jimi Hendrix and Phil Lynott, the only black musicians doing rock, then I discovered that there was even an entire band. more
Deep purple -In Rock
The best of the discography more
Yngwie J. Malmsteen
a horse circus, nothing more. always noting that the horses are much more spectacular. nonetheless, despite my disdain for his genre, his musical philosophy and lifestyle, and his passion for the Maranello speedsters, he has created something redeemable (see "Black Star" on the first album - expressiveness not entirely subservient to technique). as far as I'm concerned, it’s listenable - with a relative pain in the ass - until "Trilogy." then, nothing. more

Yngwie J. Malmsteen
A narcissist of the guitar who, slathering pre-packaged patterns at 200 bpm all over himself, has managed to win over an audience of clueless kids who can’t tell music from a horse race. Unfortunately, the obsession with this shredding guitar nonsense continues with other idiots so fast they make Malmsteen look like an old man with arthritis (his belly is no joke, either). Now, this phenomenon is like a parallel dimension to music that has nothing to do with music at all. more

Giles, Giles & Fripp -The Brondesbury Tapes (1968)
Buried for years in an old trunk, these tapes (recorded surprisingly well by Peter Giles) document the embryonic state of KC (still without Lake), creators at this stage of a volatile folk rock/jazz blend reminiscent of Pentangle (and in some tracks, sung by Judy Dyble, former Fairport Convention). Included are two versions of Drop in (the future The Letters), here transformed into corrosive blues rock, two finger-picked I talk to the wind, and the melodic Under the Sky, which later appeared on Sinfield's first LP. more
McDonald And Giles -McDonald And Giles
McDonald & Giles, the innocent souls of the early Crimson, recorded a sunny low-profile album in '70 with some naive ingenuities (e.g., the lyrics of Suite in C). Giles proves to be an exquisitely refined sculptor of the snare drum (fantastic in Tomorrow's People), and McDonald makes the most of his talent as a multi-instrumentalist and arranger (e.g., in the suite Birdman, the dream of a new Icarus, written with Sinfield). Flight of the Ibis is the original melody of Cadence... Winwood as a guest. more
Pino Scotto
One who played with his chainsaw at the factory. A tough guy, a man to imitate and praise because he made it to television and found success. Heaterz SUCATE! Go Pino! more
Iron Maiden
Great Metal, their guitar riffs have inspired people like Scotto, Scorpions, Kiss, and many others, all the best bands in the world. Thank you, Iron Maiden. more
Manowar
Great Metal. Great Men. more
Freddie Mercury
The idiot by definition! more
