Fugazzi Grand III : My Top 500 Albums (#2)

(#2, Grace by Jeff Buckley)

The most beautiful record ever recorded.  So beautiful, I named my daughter after it.  That's all I have to say ...

















Here is "Grace", "Last Goodbye" and "Lover, You Should Have Come Over" ...

Fugazzi Grand III : My Top 500 Albums (#4)

(#4, Revolver by The Beatles)

For years, I've been listening to the Abbey Road vs Sgt Pepper's debate as to which was the best Beatles album.  They're all wrong!  It's Revolver !!!  This is a perfect album, from start to finish.  And it only seems appropriate that I'm sharing this on a Sunday morning, as it as been a long standing tradition in my home to play Beatles records on Sunday morning.  Thinking of you today, dad.










Here is "Eleanor Rigby", "Here, There and Everywhere" and "And Your Bird Can Sing" ...

Fugazzi Grand III : My Top 500 Albums (#5)

(#5, Glass Houses by Billy Joel)

It feels very strange not having this at #1 on the list, and if you would have asked me what my favorite album was before I got the idea to take a  full year to think about it, I would have said Glass Houses.  But the fact that it's not #1, and not even in my Mount Rushmore of Albums, feels strange.  I guess this is where I ask the readers to not get to caught up in the order of the list.  When I started working on this list, I knew that 8 records would be considered for #1, and the final order is really just splitting hairs.  Goddamn, as soon as I hit "Publish", I've made it official ...  #5 it is.






Here is "Sometimes a Fantasy", "All For Leyna" and "Sleeping with the Television On" ...
