voted for Kate Bush, but that Little Richard song is kicking my ass on first listen & now I'm second-guessing myself for assuming The Essential Little Richard was all I really needed from him

Tough to choose between Television, the Stooges, NY/CH, Velvets, Love, Bowie, Morrison...

I probably would have voted the Miles track a few years ago without hesitation but Slip Inside This House is so beautiful.

No love for Arthur Russell or Love? Would've picked one of those but I couldn't say no to Kate Bush

Voted for Acid Police because I thought Boredoms wouldn't get enough respect out of this list. AND I WAS RIGHT

Boredoms are one of very few bands that look like they could have a 'the' in front of the name who I never refer to as a 'the' band. Pixies, Melvins, Talking Heads I will sometimes throw a 'the' in front even though they never or rarely have a 'the' in front of the band name on any of their albums. Boredoms I only ever refer to as Boredoms. I'm not sure if that's because I see the other three bands as being a group of Pixies, or a group of Melvins, etc (Tina Weymouth is one of the Talking Heads, but Eye Yamatsuka is part of Boredoms), or because Boredoms' music is so bizarre that every minor detail has to have been planned out and carefully put in place by the artist.
