Not sure what you mean by not well presented. Rich is just dude talking about music and records that he loves. No fancy graphics for flashy presentation but more knowledge and opinions than most.
Probably literally in my top 5 videos of yours of all time. Not because of what you showed, but quite honestly because of how you presented and orated everything. Fantastic presentation and descriptions 100% P.S. I agree in regards to “HELP”.
Thanks for the kind words. Yeah, I was feeling this one. I had done a bunch of vinyl finds in a row and I felt like I was in a bit of a rut. Another commenter said I was annoying. I’m not fir everyone but I’m happy with the feedback and love from those that like it real.
Hi Richie, I recently started listening to your videos (and subscribed), and the thing I love best about them all is your presentation. You are so real, and I love it. I’ve been meaning to leave a comment, and I chose this older video because of Son House whom I was not aware of (not really a blues fan) but is awesome now that I listened to him. Cheers Dude.
Thanks for the comment. Though I do have some blues records I’m not a big blues guy either. Too much of it all sounds the same. Cool that you dig Son House. Thanks for watching.
Awesome 10 albums of a great year!! Gotta love Buck Owens. Great to see some Blues in that list. Love everything Buddy Guy does. Early Stones are the best. The Byrds, Dylan, Help, nice end with Rubber Soul. One of my favourites. Awesome year, awesome job!!
Yeah, I’ve slowly got beaten down by the VC & started listening to The Beatles for the first time for years..my three favourites are ‘Hard Days’ ‘Help’ & ‘Rubber Soul’..I lose them from Revolver onwards really.Those three albums are just brilliant & just make me feel happy.
Hi Richie! Nice selection of ten albums from 1965. I am really diggin' the Son House album and the Junior Wells one. Buddy Guy is an amazing guitarist, have had the pleasure of seeing him a few times over the years. Always puts on a great show. A modern-day blues artist that I like that played with Junior is a Florida-based guitarist, singer-songwriter, Albert Castiglia. Hope all is well. Best, Steve
Yup - that is probably my favorite Buck Owens album. Help is where I start with The Beatles - a best of comp for before that, but Help onwards is what I listen to. Highway 61 is my favorite Dylan album.
questions; Best intro {(lou Reed Sweet Jane or D, Bowie Station to St) 2, Lyrics that made you LOL (Zappa) 3 Record by famous Person/Actor that's Fantastic (Lee Dorsey) 4 Best record you don't own 5 Youré the only one that like's this record (Ihave lots of them) 6 Almost make you cry record. ????? Wish you and the Fam the best for 2024
Arguably the world's first proto-punk album, the self titled, The Missing Links, from Australia. Hair like The Ramones, chaotic, feedback ridden destructive live shows, probably the first ever backwards track pre-dating the Beatles, and song titles like You're Drivin Me Insane, Bald headed Woman, Nervous Breakdown, Some Kinda Fun. The guitarist, Doug Ford, went of to form The Masters Apprentices who created two fantastic prog LP's in 1971/72, the latter being A Toast To Panama Red. The song Masters Apprentices by Opeth is a tribute to the band. Most Australian and New Zealand bands of the 60's,70's,80's are still largely undiscovered goldmines in the UK and North America.
I have two Masters Apprentices albums and one 7”. Both albums are comps. One has their more well know songs and the other is more unknown stuff. I wish I had The Missing Links. Great comment.
@@vinylrichie007 Thanks mate. Good condition originals of those Masters and The Missing Links albums can start at about AUD$700 down here, if you can find them! Cheers.
This is a killer list! So many great albums came out in ‘65! Your list is awesome! I’m so glad you’ve always championed Buck Owens because you’re right He’s “fantastic”! Love that Birds record One of the first albums I picked up when I got back into vinyl! Help is my favorite Beatles song! Sonics kill Dude! Rubber Soul for the Win! I once heard Paul say that it was when Ringo joined the band that Beatles achieved greatness He was the missing puzzle piece! Thanks for sharing Look forward to the rest of your “10 Best” lists! Peace ☮️✌️👽🤘☮️ PS I think I could maybe muster up a 1965 list if you don’t mind me jumping on your coat tails here?
I would love it if you jumped on. That is part of why I did this. It is just amazing for me to watch everyone's different choices. Starting at 1967 it is going to be hard to narrow it down to ten.
Ringo is totally an interesting, innovative drummer. Plus he even sang a Buck Owens cover (“Act Naturally”), a song that has some Dylan wit in it. It’s kind of like a progenitor to “Do You Wanna Be a Rock and Roll Star.”
Great video that is a tough list to beat I would need to have bb King live at the regal on there but other than that brilliant list. I hope you keep doing this and when you get to a year I have 10 a will jump on this. Hope your well mate 👍
Hi Ritchie I enjoyed this video your personal take on 65. I also do these videos occasionally but not in any particular order . I’m Looking forward to this series 👍
Well done! Will definitely check out those 2 blues albums which I haven't heard! Thanks for subbing my channel as well.. looking forward to your 67 list!
Good to see a buck Owens on the list, that was an excellent album, my favorite by them. Great thought for a thread, these are always fun. I’m not sure if I 3ven have 10 albums from 65 anymore. I did get sent a lot of Herman’s Hermits.
I think this is my favorite Buck Owens. I started at 65 because it is the earliest year that I have 10 great records. Herman's Hermits are a good singles band.
The songs omitted on the US Rubber Soul showed up on Yesterday and Today (remember the butcher cover). Anyway I have all the US releases and freaked out when I learned that the early British albums were all different.
1965.... One of the great years of R 'n R....... My list would be( in no particular order) Live @Regal/B.B. King...... Serve you right 2 Suffer/JL Hooker... Otis Blue/Otis Redding... My Generation/the Who.... Rubber Soul/Beatles.... Fairytale/ Donovan.... Angry young Them/Them... Rolling Stones Now.... Paul Butterfield BB. /S/T.... Folk Blues & Beyond/Davey Graham.... Mr. Tam. Man/Byrd's... Bleecker & McDougall/Fred Neil.... Out of our Heads/R. Stones.... Help /Beatles( US. edition) So Many Roads/ John Hammond. Sorry mine ended up with 15.l would also consider Hoodoo Man Blues but I'll give it a high recommendation. Cheers!
@@vinylrichie007 Gotcha. It's interesting how the British LPS. vary from American counterparts, especially during the early years. Brit. imports were not available in those times. One certainly didn't see them very often, least not in Canada. In general l like most of Brit. Beatles. The covers were great, good sound and always like the laminate covers. "Dizzy" does seem out of place on the Help release, and yet Beatles Vl is along with '65 two of my fav's. A similar situation appeared on Sticky Fingers years later when Spain issued that lp. with a different sleeve which was the best thing about it. The Spanish government decided they needed to censor Sister Morphine & replace it with an early track Let it Rock & ruined the continuity of the lp. That was obviously recorded some time around '63 or' 64. Cheers!
@@derwynpowell7689 Growing up I never saw the UK versions of the Beatles or for that matter any of the UK bands. I like the UK albums. The US had some good ones too. I think Meet The Beatles. Beatles 65, Rubber Soul and Yesterday And Today are all very good. In fact I think Meet The Beatles is better than With The Beatles. The problem I have with some UK albums is that they would often leave off the singles.
Hard to argue with any of these. You forgot to say “this is number 5 but could of been #1”. My favorite VR quote is “diversity is overrated” but slowly sneaking up to take its spot is “Bob Dylan is a wordy guy”. Great vid! Cheers
Ryan, my favorite VR quote(s): "If I just looked at a broad in the 80's I got her pregnant." When pointed out by Dr Oktober that he might have sired others VR paused, then said, "Oh yeah, if you count all the times I was tied up."
"This is number 3 but could have been number1" did enter my mind as I was recording this. Even though these are my favorites it doesn't stop me from taking shots.
Diversity is overrated eh? Well you’ll be replaced soon enough. You can go quietly, kickin and screamin or with cowardly passive agression. But your goin.
The Son House is a great album and I'm lucky to have found a nice copy. I'm not as good with words as many others but I try to keep it real. Thanks bro.
We used to have a great music venue in Winston-Salem called Rubber Soul. Then they decided to do rap nights on Wednesdays and after a few murders it got shut down.
Otis Redding would make the cut for me. The Sonics would be pretty up there fore me. Them also. Appreciate the thought you put into your Top 10. Enjoyed.
Great list as usual. I’m in no way arguing, just having a conversation, but I love Sweetheart of the Rodeo. It launched Gram Parsons from The International Submarine Band to The Flying Burrito Brothers… I agree with everything you said about Ringo.
Great list. I especially love your observation about the guitar in the Harrison song. Brilliant. Just right. It's astounding that record companies always feel the need to release so much "stuff" at once. In 65 it was "more albums (or e.p.s)!" Then it was "Let's put 70 mins on the CD!" Can u imagine if any of the bands mentioned were able to take more time and the best if those 2 albums from 65 were put together?! Mind blown. The Yardbirds & the Byrds especially! Great list. Thnx.
It’s funny you mention the Yardbirds. They had two albums in 65. I listened to side one of Having A Rave Up and thought to myself this is going to place very high. The problem was that side two was earlier material from their live album. The other Yardbirds is good but not quite top ten for me. Now if they would have combined the best of the three studio sides it would have been top ten for me. That said I know the UK records are different. I limited my list to the records that I own. Thanks fir the comment.
Great choices Richie! Six of these are favorite albums of mine. I would add the first Who and the second Pretty Things albums, but I have no complaints with this video!! Cheers! Oh yeah, just saw Eric Weinbender’s comment. That first Them record could probably bump out the Stones second album, it’s that good! Have a great night!!
@@vinylrichie007 My Generation is not 100% solid, they were a better singles band. I only have the Pretty Things album on CD. Great bonus tracks though. Cheers

Great video. Excellent choices! The top 10 from each year is a good idea. I believe the year that you will have the most difficulty will be 1971 which I believe was the greatest year! The releases from the year are beyond phenomenal!
I think Live Supreme would top a lot of people’s lists. I think the kinks hit their stride a little bit later. But who knows if they make the top ten. 67, 68, and 69 will be tough to make the top ten.
@@vinylrichie007 maybe beach boys aint your cup of tea , but ' beach boys today ' is gorgeous , that and ' help ' alone are good enough reason for records being invented
I really like the Stones - Heart of Stone. It might have been a hit since they included it on the greatest hits album "Big Hits (High Tide And Green Grass)", but I don't remember it from the radio. Nice to revive this thread. I am looking to see if I can jump in. Thanks, Chris
I have one Buck Owens album, the one where he's standing on a hand on the cover. I really like it. I know Ringo was a fan. Help has a fresher, more immediate sound than Rubber Soul I think.
Loving the diversity, emphasizing on '65 being a beast of its own rather than a prelude to the mighty '66.... Son House and the Sonics on one list, I thought i was the only one... ;-) However, I'd have The Kinks "A Well Respected Man" in there, along with The Graham Bond Organisation "The Sound of '65", The Yardbirds "For Your Love", Them "The Angry Young Them" and The Who "My Generation". By '66 there'd be some Yank-Stuff, too, but at this point, you and the rest of the world had some serious catching up to do with Britain... :-D
My Generation and The Kids Are Alright are great songs but the rest of the album just doesn't do it for me. In fact the James Brown songs are horrible. If I owned The Pretty Things they may have made the list. The Kink Kontroversy ended up at 12 if I remember right. I'm not real familiar with Graham Bond. I like the For Your Love album but not as much as these ten. After I listened to side one of Having A Rave Up with the Yardbirds I was convinced it would be very high on the list. Side two brings it down for me. It is live songs taken from the Five Live album. What do you think of the Animals?
I like your choices for 1965 !!! How about a sequel video for 1975? I`ve never heard of the Sonics so thanks for schooling me on them !! I will check them out for sure !!!
I would have to go with "Out of Our Heads" by Rolling Stones. "The Last Time", "Spider and the Fly" (how different for them) not to mention "Satisfaction (I Can't Get No)" would give the slight edge for me. And "Sweetheart of The Rodeo" is not a turd. It's the very first "stoner" country rock LP. And they quickly backed away from going too far down that path. They had the guts to do it before The Eagles and to some extent, Grateful Dead.
I’ll stick with disaster. Turd is over the top but I tend to do that on occasion. I think Sweetheart is standard middle of the road Country at best. Out Of Our Heads was my 11 and Kink Kontroversy 12. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. I hope you stick around.
I guess if you don’t like Sweetheart” you don’t like Gram Parsons and the whole genre of Country Rock that the album kicked off. Many hippies rejected it for political rather than aesthetic reasons: Country was (and mostly still is) a right-wing genre of the silent majority. But it has the same roots as Rock and it was bound to be integrated into Rock at some point.
Nice to hear someone recognise Ringo's drumming. He is left handed but plays a right handed drum set and adapted his playing around that. He might not be the best technical player ever but he has a massive influence on the Beatles sound. Would you switch Buddy Rich for Ringo for the Beatles, I wouldn't.
My number one is probably a tie between the first Sonics and having a rave up with the yardbirds. I just got the first turtles album yesterday and have played it once yesterday and about 6 times today, so that’s up there for me. Also the first 2 pretty things records
Great list, great albums. Hoodoo is maybe my favorite blues album of all time. Got to see Son House @ 1970 Ann Arbor Blues Festival. Unfortunately he was too drunk and was sort of embarrassing, for him. Supposedly Howlin Wolf called him out back about it. If I can figure out why everything I record comes out reverse or upside down, I’ll make one too.
I was thinking of putting Hoodoo higher. It is funny what you said about shooting a video and everything is in reverse. I shot a video once and it was in reverse. I reshot it and it was fine. I have no idea why.
really nice video,cant wait for 67 ,68,69its really a subjective thing ,best of's,i agree with all you presented but may have ranked some differently,but thats,my opinion. you ended yourb top with rubber soul and im so glad you did, it was a game changer,the writeing,the playing,the instruments,all done in a way that told everyone in bands and fans that the beatles were for real,the mop top stuff was over-great pick,early stones were basically good but compare _NOW _with -rubber soul- and the beatles killed it .hoodo man blues ,was and is one of the finest blues albums ever, good today as when it was released,the original Byrds were kings,saw them hanging out at the trip ,on sunset and i was trying to stay cool, roger mcquinn,and gene clark standing 2 feet away,was crazy ,saw them in almost every incarnation and loved them even to this day i believe they were perfect,and in 65, c'mon they looked like kings with beatle cuts,Bob Dylan's albums are still among his best ,bringing it back home was when he left folk and began his assent,hiway 61 solidified it,he looked like a hood on the cover,after that blonde on blonde ,and it was all over-you could not touch him.everything you picked,son house,buck,owens ect is great because maybe people will look into those works of art,hopefully you turned others on to them--one last thing i saw many times and loved canned heat live-i was at the ambassador hotel ounce seeing canned heat and jefferson airplane,i was walking thru some lobby area where their was a cake, sitting for something , lead singer BOB Hite stuck his finger in it as he was walking by and grabbed a chunk of cake hahaha,i still can laugh about that moment.the Heat never got the respect they deserved and most of us in those days were too young to appreciate what they were doing ,snd how good they were. sorry about the rant but it was a fun video and a fun time period .good luck and good fortune always.
The one thing that jumps out at me about Canned Heat is how good of musicians they were. Sadly when Blind Owl died they were just a Boogie band. Seeing The Byrds in 65 is awesome. The Byrds are in my top five 60's bands.
@@vinylrichie007 they were about as real a blues band as you could be in those days,being white and playing electric,blind owl was a king but losing Bob hite was also a huge loss,he was chrismatic ,rough way,he was a great front man ,but the band as good as they were and live they were good ,they just could not connect to the level they should have been at,also harvey mandel played with them for awhile,he was great too very under appreciated.thanks ,when i said in my coments i saw the byrds at the trip ,they were not playing they were like me their to see donovan,but seeing them next to me in there byrds gear,hair,boots, roger (jim then )wearing his granny glasses,and gene clark,looking like a movie star,it was a time,my friend -thanks for replying- i was going to say something about the sonics , but maybe another time- have a good one-viva los dodgers!!!!
I agree....Rolling Stones Now is a better overall album than Out Of Our Heads, even though Satisfaction is on the latter. Help is my favorite UK Beatles album, hands down. My top two spots go to the Dylan albums, yep. And Vince Guaraldi's "A Charlie Brown Christmas" would be on my top 10 list for 1965 also, haha! Good call on the Son House and Buck Owen albums.
I thought about putting the Beatles 1 and 2 just to see what kind of reaction I would get. I decided to keep it real. 65 was not that hard. 66 won’t be either. 67, 68 and 69 won’t be so easy. I would love to see your list.
I don't know what is up with RU-vid but I no longer see my reply to your comment. I was considering putting the Beatles 1 and 2 just to see your reaction.
@@vinylrichie007 Haha, no reaction from me. I certainly don't have any problems with people not worshipping Dylan like some of us do. I can actually understand why most people would hate Hwy61 with a passion. I loved your top 10 list for 1965. I did a series of top 5 albums for each year from 1963 until 1983 or so a few years ago but deleted them earlier this year. Perhaps I should revisit the idea since it seems several folks are doing so. Thanks, Richie. Jeff
That was an interesting top ten. I was a little surprised that you included the blues guys, but I guess it makes sense. I'm going to see what I come up with for a top ten, but if most of it is the same as yours I won't bother to post it. Which will probably be the case. I enjoyed seeing your list!
@@vinylrichie007 Hey Vinyl Richie - I have posted my response. It is called Ten Best Albums 1965 Thread Response. Thanks for coming up with the idea - coming up with just ten was tougher than I thought it would be.
Ringo was not drumming on most of the Beatles songs. It was studio musicians.One of which was Bernard Purdie, among others. One day it will all come out. Songs were written for The Beatles and studio musicians were playing on many of the tracks. It was a team effort, many were involved. George Martin and Margaret Eliot Asher(Yesterday) helped a lot. And as someone once said ‘Phony Beatlemania has bitten the dust’.
@@corkpop8401 Hey, I've seen religion from Jesus to Paul. I don't believe in Beatles. And so, dear friends, You'll just have to carry on… The dream is over. I found out. But if it makes you feel better, I’m glad to report that George Harrison wrote the songs on the album Gone Troppo; ‘Paul McCartney wrote the album Red Rose Speedway and Press to Play. And Lennon wrote the songs John Sinclair, Attica State and showed off what he’s got on the album Rock n’ Roll. Such classic stuff, I’m sure mofi will one step these genius works.
Gonna have to check some of these out! The Sonics are new to me. Definitely rubber Soul as the no 1 choice, no competition! Listening back to Revolver, I sometimes wonder if it drags compared to the amount of energy the Fabs put into R.S.
Son House - fantastic. Junior Wells - yes! And, I agree: Mr. Tambourine Man by the Byrds is better than Dylan's Original. And the Beatles Albums before Rubber Soul are great as well, very true. 1965 - also the year of releases by Dusty Springfield, John Coltrane, The Who, Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Kinks, Yardbirds ... Like your list very much though ... Great albums ...
Dear mister rich. My grandpa and me just watched your video. We play records and watch videos together.. I am 7 and my grandpa is 69. I learned how to clean and play records from him. Anyway someone we know said that because we are not vc members no one really reads our comments. You seem very nice. Is that true? Olivia.
As far as I'm concerned you don't need to make videos to be part of the vc. I consider people that engage in the comment section to be a part of the vc. Very cool that you and gramps share this together. Thanks for watching.
It must have been infuriating for US Beatles fans, because you were short changed with some of the Beatles album releases.The way the record companies mixed up or ommited tracks was just bonkers. Rubber Soul is almost a perfect album, bar Run For Your Life which is terrible ( and Lennon hated). Those 2 Dylan albums are pretty flawless, Don't actually mind Desolation Rows' lengthy instrumental ending with the harmonica. It Takes a lot to Laugh, it takes a Train to Cry is one of my all time favourite Dylan songs. Just love the feel of that song. Must listen to The Sonics again, heard them years ago but never got that album. Another great video and list.
I know it has been three months but thanks for watching and leaving such a good comment. I try to answer all comments but some slip through the cracks.
I am not very familar with those ranking lists and came by accident to you chanal. I guess one doesn‘t find too often The Sonics on such a list. Their covers are great but I also think that their own songs are beyond everything else at that time. If some aliens would visit me and say: „If you can‘t tell us in 2:16 min what Rock An Roll is, you will die!“ it would be hard to decide… do I really want to live or play ‚Psycho‘ to them.
I started these ranking videos with 1965. I just did 1969. I’m always happy to get new viewers, especially those that take the time to comment. Psycho is so far removed from everything else at the time. Thanks for watching and hope you stick around for more.
I'd have to say Out of Our Heads and December's Children are both "better" than Now!, a US release of the Rolling Stones' No 2 UK release. I'd have to select the US version of Out of our Heads as the best, with (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction, The Last Time, Play With Fire, The Under Assistant West Coast Promotion Man, The Spider and the Fly, I’m All Right (taken from Got Live If You Want It), and the under-appreciated One More Try. It has six originals (Nanker Phelge was used for "group" compositions, as opposed to Jagger/Richards), including all the singles. December's Children (and Everybody's), is a compilation of older tracks and the Get Off My Cloud single and B-Side, plus She Said Yeah (probably the best Stones' opener until Start Me Up, in 1981), from the UK Out of Our Heads, only three new songs. Now! is a rehash of No 2, seven songs making the cut, plus the Heart of Stone and Little Red Rooster singles and B-Sides. Only two nondescript new songs, Oh Baby and Surprise, Surprise. Nice list, but here are a few you missed that could have made the cut: Them (the US Parrot release) - Incredible album still, 60 years on Love (eponymous) - Ditto Having a Rave-Up _ Again, ditto Beatles VI - Capitol actually did it right (compared to For Sale) Turn! Turn! Turn! - Not as tight as MTM, but then, no studio musicians Fairytale - The "Best of" early Donovan The Temptations Sing Smoky - My Girl, plus ten Near-misses" Going to a Go-Go - Near-great Summer Days (and Summer Nights) - The Beach Boys best overall LP until Surf's Up The Beach Boys Today! - Coulda been a contender The Animals on Tour - Down and dirty with the boys from Blackpool The Who Sing My Generation - White Soul(?) and the birth of hard rock I liked the Son House album, but Junior Wells left me cold (that album should be credited to Buddy Guy, identified as "Friendly Chap") also, who makes it jump), great call on the Buck Owens (he was a rocker), but the Sonics were a cult band. I have had the album for 40 years, it just never resonated. Gene Clark, David Crosby, AND Chris Hillman leaving "ruined the Byrds" (Mike Clark left after Notorious Byrd Brothers - only Roger McGuin was left after that album). Only the UK version of Help! is great. The US version sucks!
I started listening to the Stones in Summer of 1964, when Tell Me was crawling through the charts, July 4 to Sept 4. The pretty girl next door like the Stones better than the Beatles, and my 15-year-old hormones were ripe for the plucking, I saw the Stones in Nov 1965 (Denver Colosseum - what a barrel!), Nov 1969 (LA Forum), Jun 1972 (Houston's Hofheinz Pavilion, really classy), 5 days in July 1975 (LA Forum - I was young, dumb and endowed with great friends), Aug 1978 (Anaheim Stadium - nasty sound), Aug 1981 (LA Colosseum, the worst place I saw them), Oct 1994 (Pasadena Rose Bowl - Slick Willie and the Man Jive). Now! is a good album, better in the US version, but the US version of Out of Our Heads is iconic. If you like "the blues", the English White boy blues, Npw! is perfect. If you prefer the marchin', chargin', snarlin' version of the band, Out of Our Heads is the beginning.
@@TheAnarchitek Satisfaction put the Stones on the map for me. I saw them in 75 at the Forum. I was not impressed. It seemed like an inferior band without Mick Taylor. Definitely not as good as the band sounded in 72. I saw them in 81 at the Colosseum. They were better but by this time I had been to much better concerts. The last time was in the late 80’s for the Steel Wheels tour. This was by far the best sounding concert.
@@vinylrichie007 After Tattoo You, I lost interest entirely in the Stones' output. I hoped the '91 recording of Like a Rolling Stone would spark renewed creativity, but money and fame are caustic substances for creativity. MT contributed slide guitar to 2 songs on Let It Bleed, electric guitar to everything but Sister Morphine, on Sticky Fingers, and all but 3 of the better songs on Exile, plus bass on 2 of those and 2 others. He played guitar or bass, on every song on GHS. On It's Only Rock 'n' Roll, he's not on Luxury at all, and he was stiffed for writing credit of Time Waits for No One, the best track on the album, a melody he delivered almost complete to Mick.
@@vinylrichie007 i don-t feel its underrated,its just never talked about,i heard someone in england few weeks ago stateing as much on their channel,i feel as you its really one of their best-have a good one.one very last thing (haha)Dylans hwy 61 album ,i feel would never have been the same if he didnt have one the the greatest guitar players ever Mike Bloomfield,it would havestill been good but Bloomfield was a king,Dylan himself called him the best ,look what he did on the first electric flag album.
Having grown up with the U S version of Rubber Soul , I like it better than the UK version . I’ve Just Seen a Face , and It’s Only Love fit perfectly on the album . Rolling Stones Now ! would be in my top 7 Stones albums list . It’s great , and I actually really like Down the Road Apiece . Not a bad song on the album . Cheers !
I meant to comment on the impact of Bob Dylan and the Beatles on the 60's. Once I start filming I forget half of what I was planning on saying but add a bunch of of the cuff comments.
Otis Blue by Otis Redding. Produced by Tom Dowd. In The Midnight Hour by Wilson Pickett. Booker T and the MGs are the band on both albums. And I believe that The Beatles and the Stones should be excluded from any top ten list. It's too easy nominating them.
