King Crimson -In the Court of the Crimson King
the ultimate peak of progressive rock. (excluding the Canterbury school). from the title track to "Epitaph" or "Moonchild," there is a completely unique atmosphere. more
Metallica -Kill ''Em All
If "Slow, Deep And Hard" by Type O Negative is the most beautiful metal record, this is the most important album. The masterpieces are the moving "(Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth," "Motorbreath," and the intricate "The Four Horsemen." more
Leonard Cohen -Songs of Leonard Cohen
one of the greatest peaks of singer-songwriter music of all time. all the songs are, simply, delightful ballads and episodes of infinite tenderness. not to mention the (fantastic) lyrics. more
Robert Wyatt -Rock Bottom
absolutely fantastic. a masterpiece, second in the history of rock only to "faust I", exploring the depths of one’s own self. The highest peak of the album is the two complementary works "Alifib/Alife". more
Captain Beefheart -Trout Mask Replica
a radical assault on the song form. an almost impossible amount of ideas to quantify; it's no coincidence that the album lasts forever, two CDs might not be enough, to the point that sometimes the ideas are forced to overlap (!) more
Nine Inch Nails -The Downward Spiral
a record as claustrophobic as it is expressive. more
Jimi Hendrix -Are You Experienced?
an extremely important work where guitar technique blends with compositional technique, thus creating one of the most important and influential albums of all time. Masterpieces like "Hey Joe," "Foxy Lady," and "Third Stone From The Sun." more
Can -Tago Mago
among the absolute peaks of kraut-rock. episodes like "Halleluhwah" are something impressive. more
Lisa Germano -Geek the Girl
In addition to being a masterpiece of self-production, Geek The Girl is a fantastic concept about the condition of the liberated woman. The masterpiece is "... A Psychopath." more
Bob Dylan -Blonde On Blonde
the first masterpiece in the history of rock, the first double album, the first to conceive rock as an art form rather than a cultural movement. Masterpieces: "I Want You," "Just like A Woman," and above all "Sad Eyed Lady Of The Lowlands." more
Velvet underground -The velvet underground & nico
Is there anything left to say that hasn't already been said? more
Velvet Underground -White Light/White Heat
an extremely important work in the name of international noise, slightly inferior to "The Velvet Underground & Nico." A masterpiece (perhaps even of all music after "Miss Fortune" by the "Faust") "Sister Ray." more
Brian Eno -Music For Airports
one of the most interesting experiments of the twentieth century. taking the "ambient music" project to its limits, Brian Eno forbids the listener from listening. a new conception of music. moreover, it's also a fantastic record! more
Husker Du -Zen Arcade
irrational record. the quintessence of youthful frustration in a timeless double album... masterpieces "Chartered Trips," "Whatever," and especially the obsessive "Reoccurring Dreams" more
Soft Machine -Third
Words are not needed to describe it; the music speaks for itself. The CD I am most attached to, perhaps my all-time favorite, even though I acknowledge that better albums have been made (very few). more
Neu! -Neu!
one of the greatest albums in the history of rock. from "Hallogallo" to "Negativland," it's hard to grasp all the nuances that this record is capable of conveying. more
Faust -Faust IV
far inferior to the first, but this does not detract from the fact that it can be a masterpiece. especially "Krautrock," an impressive eleven-minute suite, makes it clear how important and monumental this album is. more
Jefferson Airplane -Volunteers
the ultimate expression of San Francisco acid rock. the quintessential symbolic band of a Hippie generation. more
Red Crayola -The Parable of Arable Land
Essential work for international rumurism. The "songs" are sometimes interrupted to make room for the so-called "free form freak-out," that is, sound experiments that explore unimaginable things for the time. more
Dirty Three -Ocean Songs
moving, an instrumental album nothing short of stunning dedicated to the sea. one of the highest peaks of the nineties, without a doubt... more
