Artist: Jimi Hendrix. Not a great singer--actually not even a good singer--and his songs are actually a bit overrated, IMO. But that guitar work...mindblowing!
Album: I have to go with Houses of the Holy. It was pointed out earlier that there's nothing wrong with picking an already picked entry, and honestly this is my favorite H album. It's probably my favorite Zep album also. I've gotten burned out on the others, but songs like "No Quarter", "The Rain Song", "Over the Hills and Far Away", "Dancin' Days" and "The Ocean" really make this a solid album. And I think "D'yer Maker" is an ok song. Kinda cutesy, but definitely catchy.
If there were a rule that we couldn't repeat an earlier entry, my runner up would be Heartbeat City--The Cars. As I mentioned when we were in the C's, this is their second most cohesive album after their debut album. It doesn't exactly fire on all cylinders, but it's got a lineup of strong 80s synth pop tunes.
Song: "Hold On"--Kansas. A pleasant bluesy tune. One of my favorites of theirs.

I can't believe it's time for a new letter already.
Artist/Band: Iron & Wine
Album: In the Aeroplane Over the Sea, Neutral Milk Hotel (1998), which came up recently as maybe the most recent album I'd consider a 10.
(So many songs begin with "I"!)

Well jk - You took my album choice! Artist: Incubus. "Drive" is my jam! Album: In the Wake of Poseidon - King Crimson. Years ago I owned every King Crimson LP. Then my Ex asked if he could sell them as we no longer had a record player. I said yes. I regret that to this day. Song: "In My Life" - The Beatles. My favorite Beatles song, so it won over "I Can Hear Music".

I'd be remiss not to plug one of my favorite songs, "I" or otherwise!

Artist - Tony Iommi - the father Of Heavy Metal
Album - Infidels by Bob Dylan - I like it. It's not perfect but there's some good songs on there, though there is no excuse for excluding "Blind Willie McTell".
Song - "I Got You" by Split Enz - a new wave, early MTV classic from the Finn Brothers.

Album: In Through the Out Door--Led Zeppelin Thought about it! I think this is the most underrated Zeppelin album. I know on "H" I tried to make sure its reputation was sound, but ITDOD is thought of in a far worse light. And I truly love it. In fact, I prefer it to I, maybe II, Physical Graffiti, and Presence.

Well, it's not my favorite Zep album, but it's the only "I" album I could think of. It's half a classic album to me.

I can see I and Presence - but better then II and Physical Graffiti? That album cover for Physical Graffiti was FUN!

So no Iggy Pop or Ian Curtis today? Gave some thought to the former ... not a fan of the latter, though.
Speaking of Iggy, I read he is going to be narrating a documentary on King Tut. Didn't see that coming, yet somehow not surprised.

Well, once in awhile I feel like listening to some Joy Division, but yeah, Iggy Pop is an icon. Hopefully that King Tut documentary will be available for streaming. Sometimes I feel like I have seen all of the documentaries on the streaming services!
