1. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles

Last heard it last year. After a hiatus of about 10 years (?). Still find it refreshing and probably the pinnacle of their career.

2. Pet Sounds - The Beach Boys

Overplayed. Haven't heard it in 15 years and plan not to in the next 15 years.

3. Revolver - The Beatles

Last heard it half a year ago. Find it overrated. Not gonna hear it again for another 20 (?) years.

4. Highway 61 Revisited - Bob Dylan

Recently got a remastered copy (1 year ago). Big mistake. Overplayed as well.

5. Rubber Soul - The Beatles

Still okay. I go back to it now and then.

6. What's Going On - Marvin Gaye

Last heard about two months ago. Darn, is it monotonous or what?

7. Exile on Main Street - The Rolling Stones

Used to have a high regard for it. Heard it a few months ago and discovered the songs are rather plodding.

8. London Calling - The Clash

No thanks. Didn't like it when i got it, liked it for a while, and now don't like it either.

9. Blonde on Blonde - Bob Dylan

My most overplayed album. Averages a play a week for the last 20 odd years. Finally came to a halt a couple of months ago, and swore never to hear it for the next 20 years.

10. The Beatles ("The White Album") - The Beatles

Still good. Every now and then also.

11. The Sun Sessions - Elvis Presley

Mesmerising. Heard it a few weeks ago.

12. Kind of Blue - Miles Davis

Overhyped. Pleasant enough but i only heard it two or three times since i got it. and last heard about a year ago.

13. Velvet Underground and Nico - The Velvet Underground

Again, quite overplayed. Although there are new things to be rediscovered every time I put it on. Last heard a month ago.

14. Abbey Road - The Beatles

Hardly my favourite. Last heard a year ago.

15. Are You Experienced? - The Jimi Hendrix Experience

Least fave of the official albums, tend to skip to the singles and B-Sides. Last heard a year ago.

16. Blood on the Tracks - Bob Dylan

Overplayed as well. Last heard immensely when i broke up with my ex, about 2 years ago.

17. Nevermind - Nirvana

Boring. I listen to Bleach more. Last heard two months ago.

18. Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen

Just got it. Haven't spun yet.

19. Astral Weeks - Van Morrison

Some sort of annual pilgrimage for me. Last heard a month ago.

20. Thriller - Michael Jackson

Bought it initially and relistened to it a lot. Recently acquired an Anniversary edition. Bonus trax suck. Last heard 5 months ago. Prefer Off the Wall really.

21. The Great Twenty-Eight - Chuck Berry

Haven't heard this in ages. 20 years ago. Not even sure if the CD still works.

22. Plastic Ono Band - John Lennon

Noice! Lots of listens int he car driving to my ex's place. About 2 years ago.

23. Innervisions - Stevie Wonder

Not much relistens. About 7 months ago.

24. Live at the Apollo - James Brown

Don't have this. Only have Apollo 2

25. Rumours - Fleetwood Mac

Another perennial fave. Last heard a month ago.

26. The Joshua Tree - U2

What? Haven't heard it in ages under my own accord. Last heard a coupla weeks ago and that's only because my bro put it on in the car.

27. King of the Delta Blues Singers, Vol. 1 - Robert Johnson

I listen to "The Complete Recordings". A week ago.

28. Who's Next - The Who

Not really worth revisiting so much. Prefer the bonus tracks, such as "Pure and Easy".

29. Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin

Haven't touched this in ages. Mostly cos i dunno where it is. About 20 years ago, I guess.

30. Blue - Joni Mitchell

Not a fan. I don't own a single sausage by her.
