Back on April 7, 2011, WDRV, 97.1 FM in Chicago listed and played the first side of the 100 greatest classic rock albums of all time. That lucky Scott of Crown Point, Indiana, won ALL 100 on vinyl!!! I didn't, but have most of them anyway (and many on that vinyl stuff). The date following the artist is the year released.
Back in 2011, I was listing them as I heard them. This is the complete list.

YOGI-ISMS: "You have to give 100 percent in the first half of the game. If that isn't enough, in the second half, you have to give what is left." Last one.
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
