Time is short, I've been very busy beginning a new job and ending an old one, working 60 hours a week in the interim, and still trying to keep up with WTMD's 897 Greatest Albums of All Time Countdown.
Tomorrow is the last day. They have gone to bed with number 13, which happened to be the transcendent Graceland by Paul Simon, an album I've been anticipating since I first tuned in. So, with tomorrow being the last day, and with a dozen albums left, I've thrown together my guesses for the remaining albums. I've looked into my crystal ball of rock tradition, and have come away with this divination:
1. The Beatles - Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band
2. Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
3. Radiohead - OK Computer
4. U2 - The Joshua Tree
5. The Beatles - Revolver
6. Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin IV (“Zoso”)
7. The Beatles - Abbey Road
8. The Clash - London Calling
9. Bruce Springsteen - Born To Run
10. The Beatles - The Beatles (“The White Album”)
11. The Who - Who's Next
12. Frank Zappa - We're Only in It for the Money
Hey, I saw your link on Inforoo. I love your blog. I just wanted to say awesome job on guessing the Top 12. Sooooo close.
As a Pink Floyd fan, I would have replaced Dark Side of the Moon with The Wall. But thats my opinion.
'The Wall' was #29 on their list, not bad at all. -ed.
