1,000 Recordings to Hear Before You Die (part 3) by EyeKanFly
Part 3: Joe Cocker through Fairport Convention
Published in 2008 by author and critic Tom Moon, "1,000 Recordings to Hear Before You Die: A Listener's Life List" presents essential musical recordings alphabetically (by last name). For the most part the artist is credited for modern works, and the composer is credited for classical works (with some exceptions where the performer of the classical work is listed, for some works with a featured solo performer). For example, the entries for The Beatles are followed by The Beau Brummels, (Sidney) Bechet, Beck, (Ludwig van) Beethoven, (Bix) Beiderbecke, (Harry) Belafonte, etc.
These recordings can be very diverse in genre, medium, and accessibility. Included are not just albums, but operas (some of which are only available on video), collections of classical pieces, "two-fer" albums, lots of compilations, and some individual songs.
Moon indicated that he tried to give preference to recordings that are widely available, but CDs (or DVDs in some cases) that were easily accessible in 2008 may no longer be so today as streaming has come to be the dominant medium for music listening.
For these reasons, not every "recording" can be presented here on BEA as they are in the book. I've decided that if a compilation is already in BEA's database, I've included it here. If not, I've included another work by the artist. For individual songs, I try to include the album they were released on. For operas or musicals released on video with no audio-only soundtrack available, I've included an alternate option. For some recordings that I know EXIST but for some reason I just can't get my hands (or ears) on, I've included what I believe to be an appropriate alternate option by the same artist.
Please enjoy!

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
We work very hard to ensure our site is as fast (and FREE!) as possible, and we respect your privacy.
