I Hope I Die Before I Get Old...
Rock and Roll is clearly a music for young people. In that vein, let me present a list of songs/albums that were recorded or released before the artist turned 26. While this list is hardly exhaustive, I think it gets the point across.
- Born to Run
- Astral Weeks
- Moondance
- Nevermind
- Axis Bold as Love
- Electric Ladyland
- The Clash
- My Aim is True
- This Years Model
- Armed Forces
- Otis Blue
- Illmatic
- Let It Be (Replacements)
- Purple Rain
- Murmer (Michael Stipe at least)
- Walking After Midnight (Patsy Cline)
- Lalya and Other Assorted Love Songs
- Led Zepplin IV
- Blonde on Blonde
- Highway 61 Revisited
- Pet Sounds
- Revolver
- Velvet Underground and Nico
- The Chronic
- Thriller
- (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction
But keep in mind, heroin takes decades off of your life. Many of those "young" artists had the internal organs of a seventy-year-old.
