What is your Birth Year Album?

Released as I became one month old.

 

This little nugget was released about 3 weeks before I was born:

 

1952 - Anthology Of American Folk Music - 6 album set compiled by Harry Smith - this was an extremely important musical , sociological and cultural release which heavily influenced much of what came later in the 60s and 70s.
And it still resonates.

 

This was released 3 months after I was release. The Rolling Stones S/T: 16 April 1964

 

"Blue Train"
"The Chirping Crickets".
Chevrolet Nomad Station Wagon
1957.

 

1991 - Vienna Concert by Keith Jarrett

 

1954

 

The Beatles' Revolver and The Rolling Stones' Aftermath are my 1966 birthday albums!

 

1984 - What a great year that was

Like i was ment to listen to this one

 

Steve Miller's Abracadabra was released the day I was born, but that's lame. I'll go with these:

 

Los Lonely Boys "1969"

 

The Isleys - Brother, Brother, Brother
Randy Newman's - Sail Away
Bill Withers' - Still Bill
Stephen Stills' Manassas

 

Some "albums" were a set of 78's back then, or a 10" Lp. 1955 was a cultural crossover year. Here's to all of us who turn 60 this year!

 

I'm one of the younger ones on this forum, or so I believe.

But I was born in September of 1991, the release month of "Nevermind" by Nirvana, and "Use Your Illusion I & II" by Guns N' Roses. I discovered this around age 18, but had grown up loving both Nirvana and GNR

 

1974

 

Elvis Presley: NBC TV Special

 

Revolver was No. 1 when I was born, though if I had my choice for my album of that year I'd pick I Fought the Law or Monkees' debut.

 

Van Halen - 1984, Iron Maiden - Powerslave, or Metallica - Ride The Lighning

 

1996

 

Beat that!

 

Im not sure why my earlier post from page #9 does not have the image anymore, it must have been vanished somehow.
Seems, that there were actually many really great albums released in the year that I was born (1978) , but I only decided to pick one here for you.
So, in retrospect, think of this only as a little teaser from the year:

 

Come Fly with Me - Frank Sinatra
