Hey Frank, If you check out Bob Dylan's Blood on the Tracks, you should also listen to The Bootleg Series Vol.14 "More Blood, More Tracks". These alternate takes come from the first studio sessions before re-recording the songs with additionnal arragements. The original album has also some sped up songs versions, the bootleg series are not sped up. Well you should definitly check both records 😊

I think the first New York Dolls album is better than the one on this list. Similarly, I think Sheer Heart Attack by Queen beats Night At The Opera. But overall the 25 on the list are pretty solid must-haves.

Wish You Were Here is David Gilmour's favorite Floyd album and The Division Bell is super underrated.

And the three albums that every non-gentleman should own: 'Music for the Masses' by Depeche Mode, 'Disintegration' by The Cure and 'Unknown Pleasures' by Joy Division...

It's so nice to see Ryan Adams get some love. Love Is Hell, the album mentioned, is the album that made me realize I needed to become a musician. Bought a guitar and started writing a few months later. Saw his jam band The Cardinals over 30 times between 05 and 09. So many memories. He comes across as an asshole a lot of the time, but he's always been super nice to me every time I've met him. Got to toke it up on the bus with them once! Ryans manager convinced Domino's to stay open an extra hour haha! His catalog is so dense, not even mentioning the 20+ unreleased full lengths in my collection.

I own about 70% of the albums on this list. My prized album being a first issue of "Sticky Fingers" in mint condition. I may be one of the few that doesn't own a copy of "Dark Side of the Moon", I just don't like it. I would have "The Wall" or "Wish You Were Here" instead.

If someone based a theme of 25 albums from my collection it would have to be "25 albums every bloody weirdo should own".😂 Surprisingly I own as many as 5 of these. Id probably only add Funhouse to it

I will confess though that I have bought a CD or record that I didn't necessarily like to only complete a collection from a band or artist. I've also gotten rid like that too though.

I also have 15/25 from the list. I'd hardly be called a gentleman, considering I'm female!

12/25, I used to have an old copy Sticky Fingers with zipper and all but I gave it to my uncle who is a die hard fan of the Rolling Stones. Ok here's the "controversial" statement: I don't have any KISS album and don't plan on getting any. Just not my thing. I'll casually listen to it if it plays on somewhere, I mean I don't hate but that's it. the only Alice Cooper I own is Killer and it's on 8-track and I'm good with that. Granted, if I were to find a copy of School's out or Million Dollar Baby in the bargain bin, I would grab them Same with Bob Dylan, I have a couple, not the one listed, but will not go out of my way to get them I think I should investigate more MC5 and the Stooges... Led Zeppelin III is good, I have to copies, one old, one new but best of all is the reel to reel copy I own. But yes, hard to pick from their other albums since a lot of them are very good. Who's next? if you don't want to spend too much on a good sounding copy, try to find the Music on Vinyl version. But still try to get an old copy just for the sleeve. The sleeve on MOV is horrendous. It's like they only had a thumbnail picture and they stretch to fit the cover...but at least the record sounds great. I also have an older pressing that sound pretty good so I'm set with that one too. What's going on try to find the 50th anniversary edition, it sounds really good and the bonus tracks are nice to have. Toys in the Attic, I didn't counted because I only own it on cassette

Proud to say I only own one album on this list (London Calling). I do enjoy MC5 & the Kinks though, but not enough to purchase any of their work on vinyl.

This is basically a mainstream type of list.If you get what Rolling Stone or whoever tells you to get

I think it's a pretty good list of albums to own. Don't think it has anything to do with being a gentleman, though. Lol! But you are definitely a gentleman, Frank! I had 4 albums from the list, but have listened to most of that music by streaming it. There's a lot of must own albums not on the list in my opinion. No Dire Straits, Boston, Journey, Tom Petty, or Springsteen from the Rock genre on there. And if you're a gentleman, wouldn't you own some Sinatra? I do! Just my two cents.

Looks like you need to trade some records in!

I would assume the 2016 reissue of TDSOTM would not be far behind the first UK pressing. The info was gleamed from a KZread Video by a Record Store Owner called Mike from The 'In' Groove Store in Arizona. He is a massive Pink Floyd fan and has paid thousands of US$ for very rare copies of Pink Floyd albums including test pressings. He did produce a video about the many copies of TDSOTM he owned at some time ago. Yesterday, he posted a 25+ minute video of the Black Sabbath first album and what he considers is the best sounding version. This was due to Rhino's recent reissue of the album. Have a look if you have the time as it is very interesting. Just put in search "The In Groove"

I have all of these.... on Spotify. 😉

I doubt I fit into the gentleman category. I grew up in the 60's and that decade did not produce any gentlemen. However I do own some of these albums. I love the Miles inclusion. Instead of MC5, I put Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels in there. And where is Grand Funk Railroad Closer To Home? I have lots of Jimi Hendrix and as a Bob Dylan fan I am overloaded.
