So I think you probably get that I love
Catherine Wheel, right? Their second album, and consecutive #1 spots for the band. But this one is my favourite by just a tad. It's less cohesive, but the songs themselves are just divine. Trollhearts favourite album comes in at a close second and
Souvlaki is the last of three 5* albums in this list. Other than that, what more can be said about those two stand out Hip Hop classics?
?uestlove once stated that the 9th of November 1993 was essentially the last day of the "Golden Age" of Hip Hop - as it was the day these two albums were released. Whilst it's really just a fanciful way of thinking, it does go a long way to solidifying their status as classic, legendary albums. The rest is great too, you should check them out if you haven't.
