1. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles
About 2 years ago, I think Sgt. Peppers as a whole album is overrated, but there are at least four songs on it that I love 2. Pet Sounds - The Beach Boys Already been over this. 3. Revolver - The Beatles Around 2 months ago. Excellent 4. Highway 61 Revisited - Bob Dylan Errr, 4 months ago? Enjoy this a lot. 5. Rubber Soul - The Beatles My favourite Beatles album, 1 month ago was the last listen. 6. What's Going On - Marvin Gaye I'll be honest, never. 7. Exile on Main Street - The Rolling Stones About a year ago. Best thing the Stones ever did. 8. London Calling - The Clash God... 3 years ago? Does very little for me on the whole. 9. Blonde on Blonde - Bob Dylan 2 months ago, very good album 10. The Beatles ("The White Album") - The Beatles 3 months ago, I'm a fan. 11. The Sun Sessions - Elvis Presley Never have, probably never will. 12. Kind of Blue - Miles Davis 2 weeks ago, a high watermark in Jazz. 13. Velvet Underground and Nico - The Velvet Underground This afternoon, one of my favourite albums of all time. 14. Abbey Road - The Beatles 3 weeks ago, one of The Beatles' best. 15. Are You Experienced? - The Jimi Hendrix Experience Oosh, about a year ago. No excuse really, I love this album. 16. Blood on the Tracks - Bob Dylan About 6 months ago, always a good listen. 17. Nevermind - Nirvana A month ago, gets an unfair bashing from some. 18. Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen Never have. 19. Astral Weeks - Van Morrison 2 years ago, I used to listen to it a lot. Very good. 20. Thriller - Michael Jackson Never. 21. The Great Twenty-Eight - Chuck Berry Never. 22. Plastic Ono Band - John Lennon A year ago, great album. 23. Innervisions - Stevie Wonder 3 years ago. Doesn't grab me. 24. Live at the Apollo - James Brown Never. 25. Rumours - Fleetwood Mac 4 years ago. Ugh is all I have to say. 26. The Joshua Tree - U2 About 6 years ago. I just can't stand U2 27. King of the Delta Blues Singers, Vol. 1 - Robert Johnson 2 months, it's the shit. 28. Who's Next - The Who 4 years ago? Never been big on The Who. 29. Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin A year ago, still enjoy it, I used to be obsessed with Led Zep when I was 15. 30. Blue - Joni Mitchell 3 weeks ago. I love Joni Mitchell. |

Good thread. I'll give it a go. I just omitted the ones I haven't been around to yet.
1. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles When I was in Liverpool in March, 2011. 2. Pet Sounds - The Beach Boys On some train platform somewhere in the UK in March. 3. Revolver - The Beatles Um. Hell. Probably just shy of a year ago? 10. The Beatles ("The White Album") - The Beatles Months ago. Not sure how many. Too lazy to check RYM and see. 14. Abbey Road - The Beatles A couple of months ago. This is the only album on the list so far I listen to regularly, or would say I love. 25. Rumours - Fleetwood Mac Maybe six months ago. 26. The Joshua Tree - U2 Maybe 3 months ago. 30. Blue - Joni Mitchell Maybe a month ago. |

I love Then Play on. I really do. It's somewhere in my album top 50 I think.
I don't even play it that often, but it's a brilliant album if you ask me.

On your list you`ve got Black Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult, Hendrix, Maiden, Styx, Kansas, Pink Floyd, Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Saxon, Stranglers and my god Ten Years After! I like you again! I`m puzzled though, I was under the impression that you didn`t like metal, or are you one of those people that only likes classic era metal of the 1970s and early 1980s? |

Haha, see? I may not talk about music that much, I know.
I like to listen and learn from you guys. I don't feel like I can teach you much . But I do know my way around good music, really.Quote:
.About Ten Years After. I love Ten Years After... Stonedhenge is DEFINITLY in my top 50. Only... I always go "Ten Years After, John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers, Old Fleetwood Mac". So to me it makes... No sense to me that you like Ten Years After but not Fleetwood Mac. How strange! I do see a big smilarity between those bands. Am I hearing something that isn't there? Or have you just heard the wrong tracks? I dunno.

That Styx album btw, is easily their poorest from their mid to late 1970s golden era, as is only really on there because it contained "Babe", the rest of the album is quite bland. I never said I disliked the original FWM, just that I preferred the second incarnation (proper) of the band. I`m actually a huge fan of blues rock in general, but I happen to think that a lot of the artists of that genre performed far better live than they did on their studio recordings. Ten Years After are a perfect example. |
