A Conversation for Ask h2g2

Tough Call

Mick & Hoppa Canuck

Hey! Howdy-hi-there-friends-&-neighbours!
I was just noticing how several conversations had congealed as "what tunes do you like?"
I am proposing now to solicit from all Hitchhikers; their (OUR?)
proposals for BEST MUSICAL RECORDINGS TO SEND AS EARTH-MAIL....
To another planet.


As a start, I submit: "The Wall",* by Pink Floyd; Sgt. Pepper's (etc) by The Beatles;

*(produced, in majority, by Bob Ezrin; a Canadian)

***** And here if I may, a note to "classical" music afficianados:
"It's good. Yet, they are gone. It happens. I reckon Roger Waters and Paul McCartney and many others ought to have earned the same status as Mozart & Paganinni; Wagner & Strauss..*******

Mozart, in his time, was as much a "rockstar" as Eddie Van Halen. So was Paganinni. And Chopin.
Who are the "classical musicians" of the 22nd century?
What will endure?
This'll be good, man!
PLT, Mick.
