I didn’t make much progress in my attempt to watch the Criterion Collection. Sitting still that long isn’t my strong suit. A few years ago I tried to listen to the entire 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die and came close to finishing it. I think I was maybe 10-15% off completion.
I think I’ll redo it. I enjoyed seeing how music changed over time, how artists developed/went solo/reformed bands and the different styles.
The “challenge” is to listen to the entire album, in order, in one sitting. Last time I went in order for a bit but then did it random. Sometimes certain eras just got too much. Enough folk!
Started today with the 2021 version.
#1 – In the Wee Small Hours – Frank Sinatra
#2 – Elvis Presley – Elvis Presley
#3 – Tragic Songs of Life – The Louvin Brothers
#4 – The Wildest – Louis Prima
