10 days, 10 albums that affected your musical tastes down the years
10 days, 10 albums that affected your musical tastes down the years, no other explanations. That's it.
Shall we all start tomorrow? I've already got my list ready.
I got roped into this on Facebook, or Twitter or something, I don't normally do this sort of rubbish, but it's not like I'm busy.

I've got it down to a shortlist of just over 40 albums.

I don't know how to get it down to less than 14.

BTW, I noticed that someone'd started a thread like this over on "Other Brand Classic G*ntleman's Interest Forum" the other day.

Six are compilations and/or soundtracks.
10 really is too few for me to do.
I'm sure I could do 20 comfortably.

I'll do some notes for this tonight when I'm back on the vodka in the mood.

What I'm trying to do is locate each album that was a source of, or springboard into entire genres encompassing multiple artists.
That or something that turned me in a whole new direction - a watershed album.
At present four are from my very early life up to 6 years old - records belonging to my Mum.
Each one acted as a doorway into certain genres of music that I still like today.

I've got it down to 10.
Through gritted teeth.
So many artists and albums hacked away brutally.

One of them has been subject of a NU-HotW running commentary.

I have now assembled my list based on those criteria.
Except that 8 of the 10 introduced me to single-artist genres.

Not very many of the records on my list are anything like my favourite albums.
Or my favourite albums by my favourite artists.
They just formed/Warped My Fragile Little Mind...

Re: 10 days, 10 albums that affected your musical tastes down the years
Completely impossible. As I think I've said before, it's a rare album I can fully enjoy. That's like spending the entire day looking at the works of one artist - a handful of times it's a treat, but 99/100 you just want a bit of a mix. I'm not much of a purist in anything.

Re: 10 days, 10 albums that affected your musical tastes down the years
Actually, I would also like to take part. I'm now selecting my ten albums.
I'll have 11 contributions in total due to beginning with this song. A feature of my life since I was a kid, and saw her perform it for the first time in a private session at Stringfellows. I've always considered it something of an accidental personal soundtrack.
On the last great occasion it played, I was at an attic apartment/drag bar in Brussels, after a decisive public fight with a Mexican lover who declared Republican Party membership at a louche but intelligent dinner party I had taken him to.
He openly sneered at my invited contributions on matters like Russian sanctions and the public health crisis in West Africa, and stated he would hate for his mother to know he was seeing a braindead and godless Eurotrash divorcee.
Dusty (in spirit) and the drag queens understood. The night was saved.
