The main focus is rock+some folk, I already know enough about jazz. I’m trying to get a good overview of rock as a whole
Gonna listen to the full discographies of all these artists in order collectively...
Since you're putting in Maiden and Judas Priest you might as well listen to Metallica and Megadeth too. I know they're metal but so are Sabbath, Maiden, and Priest.
Add Depeche Mode
no Metallica or Megadeth?
Will do
Add Nirvana UK
as for as oldies, you really should add The Ventures & Link Wray, pretty important instrumental artists
Will do
>Grateful Dead
Literally don't. They have two classic albums and a couple other okay ones, but their live albums/bootlegs are the ones that are actually great.
>the full grateful dead discography
that will take years dude
This whole thing is gonna take years, but I hope it will be worth it
if you are going to do the dead, listen to the europe 72 stuff. that will take months just on its own.
& even though I like The Searchers, idk how important they really are if you want some good overview of rock, it'll probably seem redundant once you've past the early Beatles, IMO I'd skip them
What’s with all the posts about Grateful Dead taking years and being impossible to listen to?
>13 studio albums
>10 live albums
That’s not even the biggest discography here
Dick Dale too, pioneer of surf rock
>10 live albums
way more than that
>Roy Orbison
>Little Richard
>Carl Perkins
>Buddy Holly
>The Moody Blues
>White Noise
>The Sonics
>The Monks
>Los Saicos
>The Pretty Things
>The Guess Who
>The Remains
>The Smoke
>The Seeds
>The McCoys
>The Deviants
>The Litter
>H.P. Lovecraft
>Small Faces
>The Searchers
>Rainbow Ffolly
>Jerry Lee Lewis
>The Everly Brothers
>Dolly Parton
>Loretta Lynn
>Juice Newton
>Carpenters
>Four Tops
>Donovan
>Gandalf
>Ultimate Spinach
>Silver Apples
>Return to Forever
>Herman and the Hermits
>The Hollies
>Nick Cave
>Deep Purple
>Iron Maiden
>Judas Priest
Remove all these
>remove roy orbison
your mom should have removed you from her womb faggot
> The Guess Who
> The Moody Blues
> Donovan
> H.P. Lovecraft
> Dolly Parton
Dont listen that pleb, they are great
add 13th floor elevators
I mean, I assume he’s not talking about retrospective releases made after the band broke up. Otherwise every bands discography is pretty much unending, how many fucking Beatles repackagings does a guy have to listen to?
there's hundreds of live albums that are archival, but not rereleases. there's 30 something volumes of dick's picks alone.
The Grateful Dead is different though in that much of their studio material isn't good but their concerts were great. Some of the later releases were just official releases of bootlegs that had been canonized by Dead fans as being the best performances.
Add David Bowie, Joy Division and maybe Os Mutantes and Sonic Youth
Let me fix this for you
>Elvis Presley (skip the movie soundtracks)
>The Beatles (you can start at Revolver)
>The Beach Boys (you only need Pet Sounds and the Smile sessions)
>The Velvet Underground (first three albums)
>Bob Dylan (you can stop listening after Blood on the Tracks)
>The Doors (stop after Jim dies)
>Jimi Hendrix (Are You Experienced and Electric Ladyland)
>The Who (Tommy and Who’s Next)
>The Rolling Stones (no need to hear anything after the 70s)
>Grateful Dead (ignore the archival live stuff, also the only studio album you need is American Beauty)
There, trimmed all the fat
Only listen to the Beatles

Except if OP is listening to "everything" Dick Dale's vocal/hot rod stuff is pretty terrible
add Death In June
b8
>if you are going to do the dead, listen to the europe 72
Don't do this
Replace The Who with Garth Brooks.
Isley Brothers
Yardbirds
she looks like she fucks black guys
oh wait...
It’s not. The OP list is fucking excessive
Holy tourist
original Dick Dale poster and I agree
if you listen to Surfer’s Choice, King of the Surf Guitar, and Tribal Thunder that should be considered the essentials
Please don’t change the subject
Cut out pretty much all of these after Captain Beefheart
Add David Bowie and Iggy Pop to that list
Listening to the full discographies for most of those artists is a terrible waste of time. Also, you are obsessed with early rock, as a lot of those are redundant next to each other in a way.
It won't be. What you are doing is absolutely retarded.
Add these and Patsy Cline
>The Beatles (you can start at Revolver)
Ok, so just skip Rubber Soul?
You forgot rush
