Nominated by DJ Jagged Little Thrill of What the Funk & Word on the Street, DJ Deni of Lovin’ the 70’s, and Psychedelic Rick of The Psychedelicatessen. Unlike its predecessor Hunky Dory, which was generally piano-led, the songs on Ziggy Stardust are primarily guitar-based, mostly due to the departure of keyboardist Rick Wakeman. The songs were influenced by the singer-songwriters Iggy Pop of the Stooges, Lou Reed of the Velvet Underground, and Marc Bolan of T. Rex. Two songs, “Moonage Daydream” and “Hang On to Yourself”, were originally recorded by Bowie in early 1971 with another band, Arnold Corns, before being rerecorded for Ziggy Stardust. The album’s lyrics discuss the artificiality of rock music, political issues, drug use, sexual orientation and stardom. (wikipedia.org) ....
33. Mike Oldfield – Tubular Bells [1973] Nominated by Leith of The Light Fandango. Rob says: New Age music starts here. But it’s New Age done right. Don’t blame him for what followed. 34.

Nominated by Rick Reaction. DJ MTSPEN says: For me, this album changed how I listened to music and how I developed deeper connections with artists. All nine members stand out on the album, and its such a unique mix of sounds and display of raw creativity they show. 42. King Crimson – In the Court of the Crimson King [1969] Nominated by Sir Jon of Pint O’ Comics. Sir Jon says: DJ Cheshire Cat says: By 1969, The Moody Blues, Pink Floyd, Gong, and others had hinted at the progressive rock genre. The cacophonous audio assault of “21st Century Schizoid Man”, this album’s opening track, was the howling birth cry of the newborn movement. The specificity and purpose of King Crimson’s arrangements on their debut is amazeballs. That they eschewed mining psychedelia and existing folk music for their inspiration and created a self-contained mythos in each song is simply astonishing. ....
