I hope I haven't confused anyone, but what I think we're going on for the albums is the release date of the album itself, and not the composition year. Some of these performances may not have been actually recorded until after 1960, while others may have had multiple albums recorded before 1960. Wh...

Oh, it looks like I forgot to vote for 35 up. That's too bad, considering that it might have won had I voted. Well, will have to remember to vote for 42 up in 1998, now.

Moby Dick could also be a candidate for books, considering that it single handedly spurred modern art. Huck Finn and the Grapes of Wrath would also be great candidates, for how highly regarded they are, and for their own merits. Ulysses has great moments (and its certainly better than Finnegans Wake...

The word overrated is itself overrated. It is used today way too much to discredit any band or song or album without having to give a proper explanation as to why they think they are not worthy of praise. For example, Eagles' reputation built by years of popular and critical acclaim really took a d...

I forgot to mention Jim Morrison last time. Also: Judy Collins, Karen Carpenter, Alanis Morissette, and Billie Holiday even. And Grace Slick as well.

Genre work can be serious art, but in my mind to be put on the same level as great film or great literature it needs some great contemplative works, not just expository. It needs to be able to tell stories about the human condition and make profound statements about the experience of a normal perso...

Of the list, I'd say Ella Fitzergerald. Otherwise, Tim Buckley.

Iron Maiden over Van Morrison The whole of Astral Weeks is generally fantastic, and this song is no exception. The Iron Maiden song, is however, one of the all time rock masterpieces, far more complex in its instrumental segment (especially the organ solo) alone. Iron Maiden did make some rock mast...

Most of what you said mat.bez.lima, is correct. It is generally possible to put aside your biases and listen to music, and to evaluate it solely for its merit, complexity and method (even if, with music this is difficult to do, in comparison to with the other arts, due to the fact that music general...

Iron Butterfly over Van Morrison

The whole of Astral Weeks is generally fantastic, and this song is no exception. The Iron Butterfly song, is however, one of the all time rock masterpieces, far more complex in its instrumental segment (especially the organ solo) alone.

I'm afraid I can't agree with you here at all. Of course many of Bergmans films have a great screenplay, but for me it's the cinematography of films like Det Sjunde Inseglet, Nattvardsgästerna, Persona, Fanny och Alexander and Viskningar och Rop that elevate those films to masterpieces and not so m...

I noticed that a lot of people don't really look at comics, as a valid form of artistic expression, at least, compared to other mediums, such as books, films, and albums. A lot of people dismiss it, or ignore it. Even mediums that have strived for artistic expression like videogames and television,...

Frank Zappa (I know his discography is intimidating, but Acclaimed Music provides a perfect sample as a starting point for exploring it). And to then get to Uncle Meat, one of his (if not the) most complex and diverse works. And I also take this opportunity to promote Phish, and encourage everyone ...

59. The New World Highly recommended! That last category is the most important, but it also relies on the strength of the other 3. What I think the typical 'Oscar Bait' films do is put their emphasis almost entirely on the narrative. The problem is, there are so many films that put a lot of emphasi...
