Today is your day Boomer! Winter officially arrived yesterday in BC's southern interior as snow fell in large quantities. This means more indoor activities for Boomers in the next four months, including reading. And if you like music, you know the long-established reputation of Rolling Stone magazine.....music and reading together, hmmmm. A new book, maybe a Christmas present....but certainly food for thought as the mag rates the best 500 albums of all time! They have been doing this since 2003 and there are obvious choices for me like "Abbey Road" from The Beatles and Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours"....and "the book's editors reached out to about 500 voters from the world of music -- artists, journalists, record label figures and Rolling Stone staffers -- and asked for their top 50 albums (Stevie Nicks kindly offered 80). They got some 4,000 albums and created a spreadsheet with weighed points". It means artists themselves, like Taylor Swift and U2, were heavily involved in the process. It lends a whole lot of credibility to the selections, and by the way, it is not just rock music albums on the list. So....maybe take a look....take a read and enjoy your new-found winter time on the sofa Boomers! Cheers.
