Albums to pass on to the young generation

[Dolores Ibárruri]

Casual Friday so slightly off topic.

My favourite nephew finished the leaving cert yesterday. So I sent him some music from my own era and some a little more recent for his iPod. Protest songs featured but it was mostly about the music.

Top ten albums to hand down the line.

Joni Mitchell's Blue (which contains A Case of You - best song ever, imho)
CSNY's Four Way Street (because of Ohio etc)
Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde
The Clash's London Calling
Steely Dan's Aja (contains the fantastic Home at Last and six absolute classics)
Van Morrison's St Dominic's Preview (better that Astral Weeks, though not so iconic)
Nirvana's Nevermind
Songs of Leonard Cohen
The Rolling Stones' Let it Bleed
Van Morrison's Into the Music - it's always hard to pick the last one.

For Starters

George Michael - Listen without prejudice
Pearl Jam - Ten

Ten was great. I'm Still Alive and Garden of Stone. Eddie Vedder's acoustic soundtrack for Into the wild is also worth listenig to. That's some voice - golden baritone they call it I believe.
