#OutOfOrder #Year1979
I spent Friday debating on whether I wanted to go with "Sailing" (C. Cross)
OR
"Cruisin'" (Smokey)
I've decided to split the difference and share this for 1979
"Bicycle Race"
Queen

#OutOfOrder afterparty. I actually chose this year because I had Remote Control playing on the CD in the car on the way home from work www.youtube.com/watch?v=qowG...
#OutOfOrder afterparty the piece of paper:
#OutOfOrder afterparty @milesgeffin.bsky.social the Jam would have made it into the top 20 but Setting Sons wasn't their best, when I do 1978 they'll almost certainly be in the top 5 with this one: www.youtube.com/watch?v=omXv...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 #1 Another debut @wildpalmsltd.bsky.social : www.youtube.com/watch?v=2x8n...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 #2 A debut www.youtube.com/watch?v=LC2W...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #3 is one of my absolute favourite songs of all time, couldn't clearly say it changed my life but I couldn't deny that it did either, one of my first ever singles bought with my own money @chrismo.bsky.social @mmchol.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=pADa...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #4 is the Squeeze: Up the Junction - I never thought it would happen with me and the girl from Clapham, Get the Lundon Look @glooface.bsky.social @milesgeffin.bsky.social @auberon.bsky.social @jacquelinecable.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQci...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 So into the top 5 at last, this band at #5 were actually less important than the image on their 1979 album cover which is now global @jacquelinecable.bsky.social @wulfhelm.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYA-...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #6 a band I would lay in a puddle for while they walked over me. Fear of Music is a fabulous album and imho this is their best track ever @pewtergod.bsky.social @mmchol.bsky.social @jmareditor.bsky.social @andreasblohm.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Nyw...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #7 it starts to get itchy, they're all so good, hard to choose the best of the best so because my brother liked this band I'll cast them off early @denverchick.bsky.social @snowy.bsky.social @mcmgoptimist.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Kob...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #8 the band I've seen live more times than any other. Armed Forces is one of the best pieces of vinyl you can own if you had the original fold-out - it's just gorgeous @julesclarke.bsky.social @auberon.bsky.social @nakedhaggis.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ssd3...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #9 A bloke that used to fly over my house almost every day in his little yellow plane and released two albums in 1979 @glooface.bsky.social @snowy.bsky.social @andreasblohm.bsky.social @mmchol.bsky.social @chrismo.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=SU0X...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 So finally into the top 10 and if this one's at #10 it gives you an idea of how good this year was in music @pewtergod.bsky.social @mmchol.bsky.social @elllegenevieve.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FLj...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #11 a band I just didn't like the sound of back then, but in recent years I've warmed up to Fergal Sharkey because he's single-handedly championed the cause of the atrocious state of GB rivers under Thatcher's private ownership www.youtube.com/watch?v=dT8O...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #12 Another of my brother's favourites so I had to hate them back then @chrismo.bsky.social @mmchol.bsky.social @lookinupatstars.bsky.social @milesgeffin.bsky.social @jmareditor.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=youY...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #13 a very successful band that I used to think ripped off The Sugarcubes until I realised they were about 10 years before the Sugarcubes :[ @tsauro.bsky.social @nakedhaggis.bsky.social @evodaily.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uH5...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #14 one of my favourite bands, this album from 1979 was mmm not one of my favourites but this was a massive single success for them @pewtergod.bsky.social @andreasblohm.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-X3...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #15 I have to include this lovely guitar solo. One of those tracks you can play to Zappa novices and not get told to turn it off immediately @mkrebs.bsky.social @jimusic.bsky.social @julesclarke.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fn9Z...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #16 a popular song on the radio at the time if I remember @te-kanawa.bsky.social @auberon.bsky.social @sheriihler.bsky.social @milesgeffin.bsky.social @simonjester007.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8r-...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #17 a whole EP, can't find the whole thing on youtube but a lovely find in the 12" singles bucket in Parrot Records for me back then. This song's probably the best of the 4 tracks @jmareditor.bsky.social @evodaily.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9rX...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 at #18 One of my favourite bands now but I didn't get into them until much later in life. @andreasblohm.bsky.social @denverchick.bsky.social @elllegenevieve.bsky.social @wulfhelm.bsky.social @jacquelinecable.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fJg...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 At #19 One of my brother's favourite bands at the time so obviously I had to hate them back then. @mmch.bsky.social @chrismo.bsky.social @glooface.bsky.social @snowy.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=cntv...
#OutOfOrder #year1979 Really tricky trying to cram so many good songs into a top 10 so it's a top 20. @wildpalmsltd.bsky.social @pewtergod.bsky.social @nakedhaggis.bsky.social @mcmgoptimist.bsky.social
So at #20 A great band with a world class vocalist: www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8LZ...
I was totally shocked to find out that Hey Hey, My My (Into The Black only made it to #79 on the Billboard chart.
The song seemed ubiquitous back then. The album ONLY went platinum.

What about this?
Not John's best album, but it's still John fucking McLaughlin, the greatest guitarist who ever walked.

Robert Fripp's Exposure sounds as fresh today as it did 47 years ago.
Vocals here by Peter Hammill of Van De Graf Generator.

Yeah, I checked for Eno and Manzanara both.
Fear Of Music was released in 1979, though.

AHA! nearly 5 hours and the NY event horizon finally happens. I bow to your power - 5 hours has to be the longest NYEH in the entire history of #OutOfOrder.
Has anyone even mentioned Neil Young?
