The Beatles

"We all grew up on this group. In childhood, I had a lot of bright moments that were involved in The Beatles. I remember how I fell asleep right in the yard, hearing once again on the repeat of" Sergeant Pepper ", and suddenly woke up in the middle of the night when the moment with loud string began to be in the " a day in the life ". I remember how to wake up how the strange and dirty sound turned out to be in some songs when I listened to the White Album for the first time.

"SGT. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" 1967

Velvet underground

"When I was 17, one of my friends gave me their record and said:" It seems to me that this is a rather cool thing, but I didn’t understand anything, listen to myself. "I did not understand at first why the xylophone in" Sunday Morning "was upset and passed through the dystorscht. At first I thought that something was broken from this group. But later I had no need for myself that the music was not necessary It’s always better to serve it in a very dirty, cheese and rather nasty form.

"The Velvet Underground & Nico" 1967.

Syd Barrett

"I think that Sid Barrett is one of the best guitarists of all time and peoples. His game manner is so unique that few even tried to imitate it. He has absolutely" his sound "on this famous black" Celecaster ". Pink Floyd lost all their early ideas, with which they entered the arena of psychedelic rock in the sixties, and turned into an ordinary Mainstream, Sid Barrett left and released the two greatest solo records, which in the sound did not seem to be the other, the creation is exclusively Barrett, no other mind intervened in the process of working on them.

"Barrett" 1970.

King Crimson

"More precisely, their first album. Probably, this plate is suitable for the definition of" progressive rock "more than any other. When I was small, I could not even imagine that the music could sound in this way. I scrolled the plate over and over again and again. Robert Frippa on the early recordings of Krimson and the Bowie records of the seventies simply I am unusual.

"In the Court of Crimson King" 1969.

David Bowie

"When my friends asked me to call them David Bowie's beloved album, I called different records at different times because I constantly changed point of view. Now I like" Low "and" Ziggy Sturdust. "I have always been struck by his theatricality and approach to composing texts. For me, Bowie was never a crazy genius, which many could just learn to use it correctly. His best albums did his gift.

"Low" 1977.

Royal Trux

"This is a group of nineties-one of the rare indie projects, whose music is pleasant to listen to now. Each of their album does not look like another. They wrote songs that sounded like The Rolling Stones, but only they had their own unique view of this. They can be called the best cover group of all time."

"Royal Trux" 1988.

The Clash

“I can’t call myself a large fan of all their records, but“ London Calling ”is included in my ten best rock albums of all time and peoples. This is a very viable combination of punk, rockabilly and SKA, which is a punk-rock in spirit. 19 Pop Pesen, one after another, everything is clearly and verified, as if the sound is becoming better and better. But better. But better. But better and better. But better and better. But better and better. But better and better. Despite the fact that this is a pop plate, this is a story about youth, rebellion and a desire to rebel. ”

"London Calling" 1979.

Lee Hazlewood

"He wrote" These Boots Are Made for Walking "for Nancy Sinatra and sang many great hits with her, but his own career looks much less successful. His work was never perceived in America, he traveled throughout Europe: Norway, Sweden, Germany, France made very strange records with other artists. The career is amazing: he taught all the techniques of recording Phil spector, produced the notes of the synatra, composed a hit that broke all the charts, with his daughter, but still his solo work of the seventies is the best that he had ever done. "

"Nancy & Lee" 1968.

The Stoogenes

“I constantly listened to“ Fun House ”at some point in my youth and then it seemed to me simply African folk music. So banal and primitive. This is rock and roll, I think that because of the fact that it was too much roller primitive, I stopped sounding just like rock and roll and spilled into something separate. Funny.”

"Fun House" 1970.

Phil Spector

"For me, the records of his group in the fifties and sixties are the best pop singes that have ever been recorded. Orchestrations in them are almost like in classical music, but only everything in the memorable manner of Phil Spector is written. He said his musicians for several hours to play the same song in the studio, until everything was reached. Crazy manner, viciously and furiously, and only then did they begin to sound in the best way. "

Among other things, Fila Spector also has the producing of this masterpiece of John Lennon. "Imagine" 1971.
