Theme: Female Singers
Album: Ladies of The Canyon (Joni Mitchell, 1970)
Plenty of brilliant female singers (Tori Amos, Suzanne Vega, Astrud Gilberto, Sarah Vaughan, Estrella Morente and Cesaria Evora, to name a few) but it’s quite easy to pick Joni Mitchell as being my favourite. Choosing the album is more difficult; Joni Mitchell has delivered a whole bunch of masterpieces. I favour “Ladies of The Canyon” (over “Both Sides Now”, “Court and Spark” and “Blue”) mainly because of the songs ‘”Woodstock” and the atmospheric “Rainy Night House” (both included on the live album Miles of Aisles, as well). Joni’s voice with either her piano or guitar is always a great combination. Wouldn't wanna miss it on that uninhabited island. [First added to this chart: 03/27/2018]

Theme: Progressive Rock
Album: Moving Pictures (Rush, 1981)
Okay, so Rush it is. But don’t think I didn’t consider King Crimson (Larks’Tongues in Aspic, Red), Genesis (A Trick of The Tail, Selling England By The Pound), Yes (The Yes Album, Close To The Edge) or UK (Danger Money). Probably “YYZ” made the difference ;-)
Like most progressive rock, Rush their music is pretty sophisticated. When one realizes that those three guys often play five instruments at once, it becomes even more impressive: when singer Geddy Lee plays keyboard, he plays the bass line with his feet. All in perfect harmony with guitar hero Alex Lifeson and beast Neil Peart on drums. Funny thing is: they make things look so easy! They’ve created a dozen and a half albums since 1974 and most of them are real master pieces. Some of my favourite albums include “2112”, “Hemispheres”, “Permanent Waves” and, number 2 on my Top 10 list, the album “Moving Pictures”. [First added to this chart: 03/27/2018]
