I do listen to music that's older than twenty years.
I feel like I have to clarify that cause kaoru_is_here asked me to do a new list, featuring my favorite albums this time. I ended up with a list that starts 1992, around the time I became a teenager and really got into music.
So, again, I do listen to music that's older than that. I love The Kinks, The Monkees, Paul Simon, Patti Smith and of course The Beatles, to name a few. I also enjoy music from the 20s to 50s, stuff like this is awesome. But this is a list of albums, not artists (you won't find Moloko, JJ72, Sondre Lerche or Travis either). "Best of"-compilations were not allowed, so somehow it ended up with only titles from the last twenty years. "Bridge over Trouble Waters" and Kate Bush's "Hounds of Love" were the only ones that even found their way onto the shortlist, but they got eliminated when I decided to make it extra-hard and just do a Top 50-list.
So, without any further explanations here are my current 50 + 3 albums for the deserted island.
