Ryan Beckemeyer



















Ryan Beckemeyer is an artist, friend, and neighbor based in Los Angeles. He is also an incredible chef- a dinner invitation from him is one you never want to pass up. If you're lucky, you can catch him Thursday nights at Banquette singing La Vie En Rosé with a certain special redhead. You should definitely check out his awesome blog, Love Letters, and his website.

Here is Ryan's list, including his thoughts about it.


I haven't put much thought into all time top ten before now. Top ten of the moment, sure, never more than that. All time is an end to things. Though, inevitable.
No order, please. Also, this isn't completely "all time" for me. I just have trouble with the phrasing.

RYAN'S FAVORITES

LIE: The Love and Terror Cult - CHARLES MANSON
Self Titled - DO MAKE SAY THINK
Self Titled - ELLIOTT SMITH
Self Titled - FLYING SAUCER ATTACK
White Light/White Heat - THE VELVET UNDERGROUND
Different Trains - STEVE REICH
Blue - JONI MITCHELL
Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, And Thyme - SIMON & GARFUNKEL
Help!/Let It Be/Beatles For Sale–Fuck, everything. - THE BEATLES
Glider/Loveless - MY BLOODY VALENTINE
Antithesis - KEITH FULLERTON WHITMAN
To Be You And Me - BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE
What I Mean To Say Is Goodbye - TOM BROUSSEAU
Falls - SPARROW HOUSE
Song Cycle - VAN DYKE PARKS
Astral Weeks - VAN MORRISON
Being There/Summerteeth - WILCO


I'm sorry, I can't stop. This is a terrible list. I've cut it in half twice and now I give up. I am sure I've skipped my typically favorite albums and most listened to and whatever other importance. Fuck it.
