Welcome to another edition of On That Note. OTN is a weekly music post hosted alternately by @cyclones500, @CycloneRulzzz and yours truly.
This week we launch our annual albums-by-decade series.
For part 1, post from your favorite LPs released in 1966 and/or 1976. (Those years only, NOT the entire decade.) If you want to drift back another decade you may also post 1956 material.
Include 3 or 4 sound clips. In addition to the tracks, we encourage you to expound on why the album is meaningful, including personal history of your relationship with the record and its music.
Choices should focus on studio albums. Avoid greatest hits/live LPs/compilations. We’ll allow it, but it should be a definitive element of an artist’s body of work that isn’t otherwise generally available from studio output.
If someone posts an album on your list before you get to it, you still may reference it, but use different song clips.
(You can find dozens of best/favorite album lists, by year released, online.)
And, If you’re more singles-oriented, you may substitute favorite singles from either of those years.
(In subsequent weeks, we’ll do 86/96 and 06/16)
Last week’s OTN was "Feelin' Country." It can be found here: https://cyclonefanatic.com/forum/threads/on-that-note-feelin-country.299156/
