|
Hello all, I am filling out my decade charts (top 100s) and am looking for some recommendations from the 1960s and 2000s specifically. I have about 80/100 albums in my 2000s decade chart that I feel comfortable with and then it feels like the next 15 I threw in there because I had heard of them, but not necessarily liked them. I have 65/100 entries for my 60s decade chart, all of which I feel comfortable with...
What are some of your favorite albums from the 1960s and 2000s? What are some of the most underrated / over looked?
I just need more. The more, the merrier, and thanks in advance.
*My 2019 resolution is to fill out my 1950s decade/year charts

For 2000's I would throw in some electronic albums.
Artists like Boards of Canada, Ulrich Schnauss and Autechre are recommendations.
Also Sweet Trip's Velocity Design Comfort is a must.
Now for the 60's. Maybe Terry Riley or Janis Joplin.

Back in 2016 I basically listened to the top 100 from every decade, and then another 100-150 from the top 500 that "I'd heard of" but hadn't heard. Honestly the best thing is just listed to a shit load from each decade. While I don't 100% agree with BEA's top lists, it's like having 20k people recommend you an album.
Best of the 60s:

Best of the 00s:
https://www.besteveralbums.com/yearstats.php?y=200
Another source you can alter by decade:
https://rateyourmusic.com/customchart
If you want to go all nerdy, you could listed to the top 50 or even 100 of every year in the decade... and then of course make your own decision on what you like. Ain't nobody have the exact same taste.
If interested here's my lists where I rated albums according to the average amount of good songs according to my taste at the time (which likely has changed/and or was influenced by a younger version of myself):

One of the biggest 60s rock albums not on your list (that no one else has mentioned) is Astral Weeks. Don't like or haven't heard? Other 60s recs:
After Bathing At Baxter's by Jefferson Airplane
Airplane's best album IMO. After the success of Surrealistic Pillow, they had the freedom to make the album they wanted to make. One of the more adventurous psychedelic albums.
Truth by The Jeff Beck Group
Many believe this was the blueprint for Led Zeppelin. Not as heavy, but seminal hard rock. Beck, Rod Stewart, Ron Wood (on bass), Nicky Hopkins: can't go wrong.
In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
The earliest famous jazz-rock album (not counting Hot Rats). Unique atmospheric electric jazz on the first side, things heat up on the second.
Midnight Blue by Kenny Burrell
Aptly-named soul-jazz album with a great late-night mood.
Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin

Not a big fan of Astral Weeks. Only heard it once a year or two ago so maybe my opinion could change. Also not a big fan of Bob Dylan even though he appears on my chart a few times. I need to listen to that Miles Davis so thank you for reminding me. And yes, Jeff Beck group were very solid. I actually own that record, must've just slipped my mind. Thanks!
