Recently, one of the few people I consider a musical soulmate tagged me in a Facebook post by Questlove where he described his #LifeInSound:
First thing I said was, “I’m in… but it’s gonna take a while.” With something like this, you want to get it just right. I’m not worried about impressing anyone with anything deep cut or whatever. I did the 10 Day/10 Albums thing and included Spice Girls. So fuck it on wanting to be edgy and cool. I want to make sure I get my experiences with music right.
There was a lot of back and forth and back again on some of these, but do know great care went into this. Much as Questlove did, I present this without commentary
1. First Complete Album You Remember Hearing
2. First Album You Were Gifted
3. First Album You Destroyed (accident/purpose)
4. First Album You Had To Purchase More Than 3 times
5. Album you never put in your top ten cause you think you’ll look uncool
6. G’head… impress me with an album you think makes you look cool for including it
7. Choose your favorite artist of all time: now gimme the album you like THE LEAST from them
8. Road Trip On A Sunday Morning 2 Hour Drive: what album do you play in the car to impress your significant other in the passengers seat
9. An album you love that is 25 years older than you are
10. What album is the sonic soundtrack to 2020?
