[mrpotatohead]

If reading this post you feel you are too clever to limit yourself to one album, the idea is , as a body of work ,not a greatest hits album by your favorite bunch of musos, what can you stick your cans on and lose yourself to , so i will say


KID A , BY Radiohead, a total masterpiece

[Matty the Shrimp]

The first Busted album.
Album of my childhood.

[Andy]

Marillions Misplaced Childhood, for continuity it even beats 10cc's Original Soundtrack

[RedRedWine1]

Oasis; (What's the story) Morning Glory?

[Dragofly]

Handsworth Revolution - Steel Pulse

[Arnside Red]

ok its a live album but is unbelievable, Andy, love 10cc O/S but sheet music is their best imho lol

[outsider]

War of the worlds, Richard Burtons voice is amazing.
musicaly I would go for Bat out of hell

[Andy]

Neil Diamond is doing the BBC Electric Proms isn't he ? I think I heard Chris Evans say that the other morning on Radio 2 ! lol

[George Dawes]

theres loads! but my two personal favorites are as follows

for me most albums only have one or two songs on a album what are good but the Joshua tree by U2(every track is shit hot)

and plus the Stone Roses first album who from the late 80s when you had cheesy bands were the pioneers of modern music now and even Noel Gallagher said we wouldn't have existed if it wasn't for the Stone Roses we so much wanted to be like em!

Oasis; (What's the story) Morning Glory?

Agree with both, but for me it's X & Y by Coldplay

[RedRedWine1]

Good call Dawzi with The Stone Roses; The Stone Roses. I still listen to that from time to time and it is brilliant. There are only a few albums where you are not constantly flicking through filler tracks, that is definitely one of them.

[Matty the Shrimp]

Does no one agree with Busted. Your all delrious!

[Happy Harry]

I will stick my neck out a little bit and go for one that isnt a safe or obvious option. It will immediately cause you to smile and maybe even shake your head a little, but it is an unsung masterpiece that the artist in question never acheived before or in the long years since.

Befor you criticise or deride, listen to the album, it is a poignant masterpiece that is still as relevant now as it was 20 years ago when it was written with the background of the original Gulf War and when the writer was clearly going through personal anguish. 'Mother's Talk' gives me goosebumps just thinking about it. 'Praying For Time' was 20 years ahead of its time.

The album?

Listen Without Prejudice Vol I - George Michael

Go and listen to it!

Listen to #1 by Fischerspooner, pretentious in a totally different way to Kid A is but still great in a similar way. You'll like it if you like Kid A.

My fave, Revolver by The Beatles

[beanpole]

It`s got to be Queen`s A NIGHT AT THE OPERA

[MORECAMBE_RULE]

Pendulum - Immersion, going to see the album tour in December.
Apart from that maybe The Prodigy - Invaders Must Die or Fat of the Land

[Joel Ninety]

I'll change my mind tomorrow probably, but for me its either:

Arcade Fire - Funeral

or

Mansun - Six

Although I haven't listened to anything but Twin Shadow's "Forget" for the last two months (http://twinshadow.net/), best thing I've heard for a long while.

[Morectalk]

Stone Roses - Stones Roses.

Beatles - Revolver.

[bill ding]

Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells

[oracle]

Having spent many years clearing up at CP I would have to go for the 'Wombles'.

Absolute QUALITY album Harry. Every single track. (By the way, it's "Mother's Pride" the one about the Gulf War.) Absolutely LOVE this album and still play it in the car even now. "Cowboys and Angels" is my personal favourite from the album with "Waiting For That Day" a close second.

Another favourite album of mine would be by Fleetwood Mac. Tango In The Night. Favourite Track on there HAS to be "Little Lies."

[Morectalk]

Fleetwood Mac - who are you, my aunty Mabel ????

[Curly]

Off The Bone - The Cramps

You are correct of course about Mother's Pride! Getting mixed up with an old Tears For Fears song (showing my age there!)

Cowboys and Angels is outstanding.

Glad of this thread just put LWP back in my car.
