They also don't cover other genres of music....Steve Earle recorded a whole album of Civil War music...just not during the Civil War
Yes but selecting which songs and in which order on the album is part of the art form. Classical artists released their music in a different format/art form.
Your argument works better if it were a list of the 500 greatest songs. Then you should include classical and other genres.
Most baroque songs are very short....like fiddle tunes...they are songs just the same...listed and with titles...see the Chieftans or Bach...they are not symphonies but actually songs...Rock has the rock opera...Zappa did both but his product was still an album.
^^^ For all you Young Bucks out there... THIS is what "street-cred" looks like! Good shit, @theprunetang!
A lot of modern classical music was actually released in movie form... It's hard to argue with John Williams's prowess as a composer.
That was fun. I went through the whole list. Can't say they got even one album ranked correctly, but there is some good music, and some I had forgotten about. barfo
Haha. I can only imagine. I met him after he had kind of settled down a bit. I've heard stories though....
