The 500 album challenge

I love music. Period. I love discovering it. I love reading about it, and most of all I love listening to it.

While browsing through rollingstone.com I came across their "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" list. I quickly set to work on reading through the list to see what albums I had, and had not heard. Much to my disappointment I soon came to the realization that I hadn't heard even half the albums on this list. this simply wont do. 

So I start this blog with one thing, and one thing only in mind. I'm going to go through this whole list in its entirety, and listen to/rate every single album. I'm going to post my own comments alongside the original Rolling Stone comments and see how it stacks up. An exciting endeavor for a music lover such as myself, but a rather large one all the same. Still it's a challenge I look forward to.

I'm also toying with the idea of bringing in some of my equally music crazed friends to get some more varied opinions on the albums. Nothing set in stone mind you, just a fun idea.

Here's the full list that we will be digging through

Anywho, enough talk. On to the list!
