75 Albums Every Man Should Own

I stumbled on this list from Esquire magazine. Of the 75, I have 20. I guess I'm not much of a man. See how manly you are.

14 for me.....

Knowing esquire that list was probably compiled by one of their metrosexuals....

Silly stuff to keep the bored occupied. I admit that I did use my 4minutes to look at it. Goofy list.

42 here. Missing mostly rock and rap. Some definite classics in there. Good post. Manly or well versed is the question.

Just 19, but certainly didn't see another 56 that I would buy, or even 1/2 that many.

I read the list a couple of hours ago and before seeing this thread. Did not do a count but probably in the 20 range give or take.

23 for me, with ~ 3/4 on vinyl...

I could think of a better "Top 75"... so could probably everyone else

Uh oh.......... only 6.

Got a bunch of "Best of" by most of the artists, but not those specific entire Albums. I must be going to "Music Hell"

Only 11 for me. I'd buy some of what I don't have but not much.

20 all rock or jazz. Weird list, some I had ever heard of. Check out http://www.rollingstone.com/music/lists/500-greatest-albums-of-all-time-20120531. Better list, in my opinion.

Same here. Must mean we're more discriminating in our tastes.

Agreed

38 for me. About 70/30 vinyl to digital.

Like others said, each of us would have our own list.

Over 60 for me.

The Marines are looking for a few good men.

Only 10.
Time to get the quiche out of the oven before it burns.

I S-U-C-K!!

Only 16 for me.
Guess it's time to order that pink flowery sun dress I've had my eye on at Sacks.

I'm too ornery for those guys.

I'm counting 34... BUT this is a rather weird list... matter o' fact... somewhat lame.
