🎓 Reddit experts on album-oriented rock music
The comments and opinions expressed on this page are written exclusively by redditors. To provide you with the most relevant data, we sourced opinions from the most knowledgeable Reddit users based the total number of upvotes and downvotes received across comments on subreddits where album-oriented rock music are discussed. For your reference and for the sake of transparency, here are the specialists whose opinions mattered the most in our ranking.
Babe I'm Gonna Leave You by Led Zeppelin is my current favourite song, and I hope you like it as well! The lyrics to this song are in the video's description, by the way.
If you'd like to hear more Led Zeppelin, here are some of my favourites.
If you're interested, Mothership is an amazing compilation album of Led Zeppelin and a great first Zeppelin album (I myself HATE compilation albums, but there's something special about this one.. it's lovely).
If you'd rather buy a studio album, my personal favourites are Led Zeppelin II and Led Zeppelin IV (or ZOSO) that I both highly recommend.
Now, if you don't fancy Led Zeppelin, here are some of my other favourite songs:
These are just a few, but if you'd like me to recommend more, please let me know. I'll be more than happy to! Happy travels in your music search! :)
EDIT: Added more songs because I'm 400% indecisive when it comes to picking favourites..
[Metallica - Eye of the Beholder] (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCuaPUVFbzg)
Not the strongest song from their ...And Justice for All album but it does get the message across. It's about the limitation and restriction of freedom of speech and freedom of expression The government, the elite and the media (one of whom or all three play the role of the Eye of the Beholder) assures the people that we have those rights to say, read, watch and do what we want but in reality, our freedoms are actually very limited and restricted to the Eye of the Beholder's liking as explained in this verse:
"Doesn't matter what you see
Or into it what you read
You can do it your own way
If it's done how I say"
In the chorus, it also mentions how they can use what you said or did against you by bending it.
"Independence limited
Freedom of choice
Choice is made for you my friend
Freedom of speech
Speech is words that they will bend
Freedom with their exception"
This, unfortunately, is what's going on to this day especially with many censorship advocacy groups (like the Parents Television Council for example) coming in and certain politicians who will be willing to give up parts or most of our rights to please the elitists, from whom they get big paychecks for doing their dirty work.
[The album Permanent Waves by Rush would be a nice addition to my collection.] (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000001ESN/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=2QB7Z2PVJMIHO&coliid=I1018XJ8IE5ZWM)
Sorry for the extremely long and even political entry but thanks for the contest. :)
I have been listening to music for a long time; grew up in the 70's but am not mired in baby boomer nostalgia.
I like many genres. An album that is good enough to enjoy in its entirety is an album to treasure. I'll pick three.
The White Stripes: De Stijl
The Avett Brothers: I and Love and You
Warren Zevon was over-looked and under-appreciated. The guy had so much talent. I love his entire body of work but have special affection and appreciation for his first 'official' album, the eponymous Warren Zevon.
http://www.amazon.com/Warren-Zevon/dp/B000002GY5
I'd recommend buying the soundtracks. I listen to them all the time while I'm writing.
SPOILERS BELOW IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE ENTIRE SERIES
Miniseries
Richard Gibbs is the primary on this one and Bear McCreary assists. The twinkling bells of Six's theme may seem repetitious at first, but the seeds of BSG's sounds can be found here.
Season One
Great stuff, without question. "Passacaglia" and "Shape of Things to Come" are truly beautiful.
Season Two
Thanks to the arrival of Pegasus and the attack on the Resurrection Ship, the action drums of this album are fantastic.
Philip Glass' "Metamorphosis One"
Thanks to Starbuck's dad, I had to buy this. A truly great piece. Without it, my Season Two sounds empty.
Razor/The Plan
Since these are both Season Two based movies, I placed the tracks here. "Apocalypse" kicks ass.
As far as watching The Plan (I'm assuming you already saw Razor), I would suggest waiting until you watch the series for a second time. Pop it in right after the scene in "Lay Down Your Burdens" wherein in Roslin passes sentence on the duplicate Cylons in the brig.
Season Three
The lead up to "Watchtower" is magnificent and I always crank the volume for the New Caprica action sequences.
Season Four
With "Watchtower" fully revealed, it gets used to great lengths. Includes the full, haunting version of Gaeta's song. Plus, "Kara Remembers" floors me every time and the full orchestral sounds of "Daybreak" are worth rattling the speakers.
Jimi Hendrix - "All Along the Watchtower"
Of course, I have to cap off the BSG experience with Hendrix's version. I mean, c'mon.
Caprica pilot
Lastly, for completeness' sake, I have this one in the playlist, too. I only hope they can release the rest of Bear's great work on this show in the future.
As for watching Caprica, I do recommend it. It starts slow, no question, but it picks up in the last six or so episodes and by the end, you'll be cursing SyFy's name (yet again) for not giving the show another season.
Now if only they'd release a Blu-ray of the series ...
See that's the thing -- I kind of love all of it, even the so-called "crap" stuff from the decade. I love the rock stuff and the disco stuff and the soul stuff. All of it. (well, mostly)
For lesser-known soul stuff, I like the What It Is! box set. And there's some amazing stuff in the 70s-era part of the Quincy Jones box set. But as far as straight-up groups, Earth Wind & Fire and Sly & the Family Stone are where it's at for me.
Rock stuff, I have a soft spot in my heart for Big Star, but I'll take the more popular stuff, as well, like Bowie and Zeppelin and former Beatles' solo stuff, or even the so-called "lighter" Doobies or Steely Dan. And goddam if Loggins & Messina's "Sittin' In" isn't just the most blissful. And holy crap, of course there's Harry Nilsson and his entire catalogue.
But the thing I love most about the 70s is discovering all these bands that are relatively under the radar these days, or groups that artists were in before they got big. Relatively recent discoveries for me include the band Lake and Klaatu and Brian Protheroe.
But I'm honestly equally happy putting on the 1970s station and listening to Brandy or Amie or Angie Baby or pretty much whatever.
EDIT: cleaned up some links
Back in Black Good choice!
PP444 is fine to start with. Next step up is the ART DJ Pre II $67.
RCA cable from turntable to the phono preamp should be limited to 3 or 4 feet. From the phono preamp to an amp or powered speakers can be longer.
The cleaning kit you picked out, the brush is just for light everyday dry dusting. The small cleaning solution bottle won't do anything of value. For cleaning records that need it you need to do full wet cleaning. If not buying a Spin Clean, DIY How to clean vinyl records and make your own cleaning solution • Best way to clean your vinyl records. It is also the most economical! • DIY record cleaning • How to clean Vinyl • Wet and Vacuum Clean a Record On the Cheap. Then put your vinyl in new anti-static inner sleeves.
Considered spending more on speakers and buying stands lager or building your own or use something make shift until you buy stands.
Edifier R980T are designed as computer speakers. No remote and the volume control on the back. Consider Edifier R1280DB $99 that have a side volume control and a remote.
Or lower cost 6-1/2" 2-Way Bookshelf Speaker Pair and Mini Amp Bundle $49.
Better speakers and mini amp than the $49 bundle: Dayton Audio B652-AIR 6-1/2" Speakers with AMT Tweeter $40+ FX-Audio FX252A Amp $33 + Speaker Wire and 4 Ways to Strip Wire. Optional 4-Way AV Switch RCA if you want to add another audio source.
Better speakers and better mini amp: Closeout 6.5" DCM TP160 by MTX Audio
$249$85 pair. Review by u/DieselWang, Video Review and DCM TP160S vs the SVS Ultra Bookshelf. Amp SMSL A2 $75 has 2 inputs and sub out. Speaker Wire then 4 Ways to Strip Wire.Speaker Placement: Stereo Music Listening and How to position your speakers for great sound.

I can't narrow down the songs and movies to 5 but I think I can take a stab at the albums. The links go to Amazon. In no particular order...
I could survive on a desert island with these 5 albums and never want for music. I might want a power supply though.
When I was 12, I bought this album. It had a Sgt. Pepper's cover on it. I can honestly say that I really do enjoy the Hendrix version way more than the beatles.
I paid 88 dollars for that box set. It was awesome. Catfish blues and the all instrumental version of Electric ladyland are awesome. Amazing songs.
Great Gig in the Sky's voice solo has artifacting even with MP3s. Also symbol crashes chirp in any FFT-based lossy audio compression.
For the best experience - might I recommend DSotM in 5.1? https://www.amazon.com/Dark-Side-Moon-30th-Anniversary/dp/B00008CLOA Comes in SACD and DVD Audio.
James Guthrie remastered it from the original studio tapes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dark_Side_of_the_Moon He's also remastered several other classics in 5.1 - all excellent.
There are a few notable changes:
- On The Run - footsteps go AROUND you
- Gig in the Sky - "if you can hear, this you're dying" is more audible
- Closing base drum (aka. heart beat) - the dub-over of Beatles Ticket to Ride is no longer audible.
I haven't listened to many full albums because I'm just getting into the amazing run of singles released in the latter half of the 70s, so if you're looking for a compilation, try No Thanks! for 100 of the necessary stuff. Such a fertile period, masses upon masses of kids playing with matches... to very good results of course.
I also love:
The Clash - London Calling (obvs)
Television - Marquee Moon (does this even count?)
Stooges - Raw Power (PLAY IT FUCKING LOUD)
Gang of Four - Entertainment! (a dance-off at your own personal shame banquet)
Wire - Pink Flag (so complex, "Ramones went to art school" etc.)
Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures (bleak but super groovy)
Buzzcocks - Singles Going Steady (so much fun, but also very sad and lonely)

Spotify premium or tickets to a concert would be most appreciated by me! Vinyl records are also always nice, provided the person giving them has good taste. DVD versions of live shows are awesome gifts: Led Zeppelin's two-disc set) with a bunch of performances is my favorite. I also really love Shut Up and Play the Hits; it's less guitar heavy, but it comes with a documentary about the band's last show as well as the show itself.
Happy Birthday Kramdiw !!
This from your wishlist is Awesome!! and I like the beer pong shirt. Lol. Shirt..
I love Steven Wilson's King Crimson 5.1 remixes.
Pink Floyd's 30th Anniversary SACD of "Dark Side of the Moon" is the best 5.1 mixed album I've ever heard.
Also, NIN "Downward Spiral" is great.
I'm glad you guys liked this. Early Led Zeppelin is some of the best stuff ever. I only said downvote away because I figured the hivemind didn't want this kind of metal. For those of you that do, I highly encourage you to watch this.
I would recommend listening to this compilation and then explore the discographies of whatever bands on it you like the most:
No Thanks! The 70s Punk Rebellion
That covers all the standard essentials of early punk. Here's a couple other favorite comps of mine:
Good Vibrations: The Punk Singles Collection (best punk/powerpop singles from Irish label Good Vibrations)
Killed By Death (obscure 70s/80s punk)

|name|Warren Zevon|
|about artist|Warren William Zevon (January 24, 1947 - September 7, 2003) was an American rock singer-songwriter and musician noted for including his unique and sometimes sardonic opinions of life in his musical lyrics, composing songs that were sometimes humorous and often had political or historical themes. Zevon's work has often been praised by well-known musicians, including Jackson Browne, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, and Neil Young. ([more on last.fm](http://www.last.fm/music/Warren Zevon))|

I am a bot by radd.it data services. I have been requested to post these reports.
Two of my favorites are Dire Straits: Brothers in Arms and Talking Heads: Stop Making Sense. Great music and fantastic recordings!
Other good ones include MTV Unplugged: 10,000 Maniacs and Leonard Cohen: Live in London.
I'm in Canada so I don't know if that counts but I would love A Night of Queen!
The Queen item on my wishlist would be this mug as Daenerys is the true Queen of Westeros.
(/u/scandalousblanche did you see this contest yet?)
Thank you for your reply.
Additional question; which is the better version of the debut album, this or this?
I ask since sometimes, people have issues with remasters of certain albums and prefer the original.
Thanks again
I'm sorry but we'll need you to turn in your Rush fan card for not remembering the title of a classic like "The Spirit of Radio". :)

Symphonic Pink Floyd is amazing:
Us & Them: Symphonic Pink Floyd
The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra Plays the Hits of Pink Floyd
This is awesome also: Piano Tribute to Pink Floyd
Here's a sample of what's on the Led Zeppelin DVD.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMGSXIjU2Js
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pm3zUQjG5no
The Royal Albert Hall footage is my favorite concert of all time. The DVD also includes Madison Square Garden which is mostly IV and Houses, and Earls Court which is an acoustic set.

Audio wise, look up the album How the West Was Won. Contains most of the songs on the DVD and is considered its companion piece.
I like to take this surf music compilation when I'm beaching: http://www.amazon.com/Cowabunga-The-Surf-Various-Artists/dp/B0000033S4 Pretty much any tunes from that set would be a good fit for sun & surf - if you're into reverbrant surf music.
I think it depends a tremendous amount on the kind of music you're going to be mixing. Here are some of my go-to choices:
Blind Boys of Alabama: Spirit of the Century
Steely Dan: Gaucho (link is to the 96khz/24 bit FLAC release)
Dire Straits: Brothers in Arms
Thomas Dolby: Aliens Ate My Buick
BB King: Blues Summit
And last but of course never least, Michael Jackson's Thriller
Assuming you don't already own it, a tool like Smaart and a reference mic would be very useful to you.
The 4 disc compilation box set No Thanks! The 70s Punk Rebellion is an awesome place to start. I was already a little bit into punk, but this set introduced me to what are now some of my favorite bands and artists.
Right after Life During Wartime, Byrne actually says that in the film: he raises his left hand and says: "Thank you! Does anyone have any questions?"
Perhaps you are confused by the fact that there are two versions of Stop Making Sense out on CD: the original release, with the songs somewhat out of order, and a Special New Edition that came out later, and that restores the song flow to being the same as the movie. There was also a VHS version which included Cities and Big Business/I Zimbra -- which have never shown up on any CD that I'm aware of.
Yes. It looks like this: http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000002P5U.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg
The nude cover is way better.
Gaucho came out after Aja, right? Yeah I remember Babylon Sisters and Time out of Mind. My Rival doesn't sound familiar, but it has a nice groove.
I'm on amazon right now looking for the remasters. What is the live album you're talking about? Is this it?

I like the stuff on this box set It has the best version of Room Full of Mirrors IMO.
I personally prefer the 2004 'Original Master Edition' mostly because it was the first one I hear. I don't think the 2009 stereo mix really adds much, although it is a somewhat interesting companion piece.
So if you don't yet have a copy of the debut I would recommend this one for sure. Having said that, since the other edition includes the 2004 mix as well as the 2009 one you can't go too far wrong.
London Philharmonic: Us and Them
I'm a big Pink Floyd fan also, and I love this album. It's not really branching out, but I think you'll like it.
"Cowabunga! The Surf Box Set" and "Surf Age Nuggets" have some really great songs on them. With Nuggets getting pretty gritty and garagey. Some of the bands are terrible, like you can tell they picked up instruments a few months ago as they go through a guitar scale... but some of the songs are really special. The thing is that there aren't too many super complete albums from the same bands since there are so many flashes in the pan, but see what you think.
BEST ALBUM EVER!
Us & Them: Symphonic Pink Floyd
Upvoting because someone else is honest to admit Phillip Glass is monotonously repetitive.
Nice list BTW !
And for something completely different: Us and Them: Symphonic Pink Floyd by London Philharmonic Orchestra http://www.amazon.com/Us-Them-Symphonic-Pink-Floyd/dp/B0000040UZ/
Something big and flat. The rest depends on personal preference and what type of mouse you have (my laser mouse has difficulty with reflective glossy solid white) Cardboard works, but I use one of these granted, mine was £1 from a charity shop
Cowabunga: The Surf Box. Click on the 'see all tracks' for some ideas. This is a good set if you're throwing a surf themed party.
David Gilmour's Remember That Night is a pretty cool concert if you haven't seen it.
The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra ♫ The Symphonic Pink Floyd https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBGeex66_t8
https://www.amazon.co.uk/London-Philharmonic-Orchestra-plays-music/dp/B0000040UZ and that also looks like a Roger Dean cover.
All quite interesting to add to the collection.
Put in track numbers for each disc, disc numbers for the set, and check the box that says "Part of a compilation" for each song. Selecting multiple and editing the common info is your friend.
Edit: Don't forget to put the total number of tracks per disc (x of __) and same for the discs in the set (y of 3).
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00006JIA4/ref=aw_d_detail?pd=1
That's a killer solo.
Steely Dan has had some AMAZING drummers work with them, my favorite is Dennis Chamber on their Alive In America live album.
It's just called Led Zeppelin..HtWWW was a separate audio only release.
http://www.amazon.com/Led-Zeppelin-Robert-Plant/dp/B00008PX8P
Both are sweet... :)
Is this the version you are referring to?
Going to order this on your recommendation - I've been holding off for a while. I want to make sure I get the right thing.
No order;
Battle of Mice - A Day of Nights (easily my favorite female vocalist), Zodiak - Sermons, Tool - Lateralus, Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon, and Deftones - White Pony.
I could keep going though.
John Mayer bluray http://www.amazon.com/John-Mayer-Where-Angeles-Blu-ray/dp/B0019HQIFE/ref=sr_1_1_bnp_1_blu?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1411881733&sr=1-1&keywords=John+Mayer
Also the Last Watlz by the Band is amazingly well recorded.
And 3rd David Gilmour -Remember That Night http://www.amazon.com/David-Gilmour-Remember-Albert-Blu-ray/dp/B000UD08HW/ref=sr_1_1?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1411881633&sr=1-1&keywords=david+gilmour
http://www.amazon.com/Greatest-Hits-II-III-Collection/dp/B00006JIA4
bought that one for my mother 2 years ago. I recommend it if you are going for CD.
Yep, 30th anniversary edition!
Well it started with this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVhNCTH8pDs&ab_channel=PinkFloyd
​
And than I listened to this
https://www.amazon.com/Dark-Side-Moon-Pink-Floyd/dp/B000002U82
And here I am.
I remember reading that In The Court Of The Crimson King was mastered on a tape deck with poorly aligned heads, this caused the high frequencies to be messed up. There was some attempt at the time to minimise it. Then one of the original masters got lost for decades.
Robert Fripp finally found it and a digital remaster was released some years back in which they were able to digitally correct most of the issues.
I believe the The Original Master Edition is the first pressing of the digitally remastered CD (code DGM0501) amazon link
It is also coded with the HDCD audio codec which gives higher fidelity audio if played through Windows Media player or CD player/audio player with the correct decoder. wiki
It makes up the bulk of disc 1 of this package: Led Zeppelin - DVD
Essential purchase for any Led Zeppelin fan.
I don't think we can consider this solved if we can't produce an example of Steely Dan being "booed off stage". That sounds incredibly unlikely to me.
I have "Steely Dan: Alive In America" and it is blisteringly good. The idea of them being booed at all, let alone booed off stage, is crazy.
Exactly. Great live stuff, but the fantasy footage is awful.
Not to get all Led Zeppelin nerdy on you, but they came out with a 2 DVD set of live sets from different eras of their career that is awesome.
http://www.amazon.com/Led-Zeppelin-Robert-Plant/dp/B00008PX8P
Unfortunately, it's not 8.99 and I don't think they released it in blu-ray.

That is just from some quick searches on Amazon and cover many different generes. Local stores (I live in Toronto) also have 2xLPs for cheaper than $40, in fact I would say $40+ is an exception rather than the rule.
Where are you shopping that $40+ is the rule?
Not downplaying the grandiose that is Dark Side of the Moon, but you should check out the Us & Them: Symphonic Pink Floyd.

You can always buy it on CD.
https://www.amazon.com/Dark-Side-Moon-Pink-Floyd/dp/B000002U82
Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd
I don’t think it was released in either format. It was a SACD, and I believe this is it:
The Dark Side of the Moon, 30th Anniversary Edition https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00008CLOA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_1MCGAb7EM9DRA
Introversion: "Brain Damage" by Pink Floyd, off Dark Side of the Moon
Extraversion: "You're The One That I Want" from the Grease soundtrack
