Artist/Band of the Week, Week 1: Guns N Roses
ABOUT THE PROJECT
Please join me in my "artist/band of the week" project. My plan is to nominate one artist/band early Sunday of every week. During the week, anyone who wants to participate with me can listen to all of their albums (studio, EPs, live). Regarding greatest hits albums, I plan to list only songs that are different versions than the originals and songs not released on other albums. At first I was torn if live albums should be included, but I decided to keep them as they help to provide a full spectrum of the band/artist and their strengths/weaknesses. If time allows, I suggest listening to each song at least twice. The goal by the end of the week is to select your favorite five songs. If you know the artist/band well enough to likely identify your top five right away, I still encourage you to listen to the songs before submitting your list. Of course, the more people who participate, the more interesting this project will become. It will also be nice to use these lists to initiate some discussions. Even if there are disagreements, it should be fun seeing different perspectives. My ultimate goal is to eventually have my top five favorite songs for each of my favorite 1000 bands. With this being said, I do not plan on going anywhere anytime soon. Hopefully I will get some people who will join me throughout, and even for bands they may not be a fan of. Even for artists I dislike, I know I can still usually identify their best music. If you miss the timeline for any specific bands but you still want to participate, feel free to add your favorite five songs whenever you are able. I will also include a link to a Grooveshark playlist for each artist/band I post. This should include all songs from start to finish (and cross referenced with Wikipedia). This takes me a little time to compile, but in the long run is better as Youtube and other websites have commercials or are not free. I suggest not getting too caught up putting your top five in order. I consider it an accomplishment in itself narrowing down to five songs per band. You can rank your top five if you prefer. However, I will list mine in alphabetical order instead. WEEK 1 ARTIST/BAND OF THE WEEK Guns N Roses Here is a playlist of all 100 Guns N Roses songs.

Come on: you seriously expect people to listen to a whole discography, twice, each week? Best of luck...

We are all here because we love music, right? Why not choose a different band a week and focus on them? You can listen when doing whatever if you what; relaxing after school/work, while getting ready for school/work, while eating, while doing errands/chores, while doing pretty much anytime. Heck, some people can listen to music while at work. GNR has an average length discography at around 8 hours probably with 100 songs. Some bands will have only a few albums and of course some have much more. I don't know. If this sounds like too much work, then pass. I just thought I came to the right place where people would enjoy listening to different music and sharing their thoughts. |
