Here I write about the most influential and groundbreaking music ever made. This section of the blog focuses on albums released before the year 2000 and dives into the artists and albums that started, carried on, and shaped music into what we know today. This section is less restricted than the ‘modern’ section and I cover just about any album, regardless of genre.
