Christian Eudeline: From Hard Rock to Heavy Metal: The 100 Cult Albums (2014)

Post by Pierre »

According to the results of a survey that I just made up, we all agree that AM needs more Twister Sister and Cinderella. Thankfully, I'm here to give you a little dosis with this list:

http://www.senscritique.com/liste/Du_Ha ... 00#page-1/

From this book "Du hard rock au heavy metal : les 100 albums cultes":

https://www.amazon.fr/Du-hard-rock-m%C3 ... 2324008289

The author is Christian Eudeline, brother of veteran rock critic Patrick Eudeline, who has been active for about a decade in the French press (Christian, not Patrick, who has been active for much longer). The list itself is your good old top 100, unranked and chronological, with a general one-album-per-artist rule which is not strictly applied (see Led Zeppelin or AC/DC for instance), and features no album from The Cult. The usual drill.
