In Utero - Nirvana

I've always thought King Crimson's Red was better than ITCOTCK, but the latter would win on importance/influence. I think Boo Boo would agree with me and I'm not the first one to consider Starless their finest moment. Both are great albums though.

I reckon Low is Bowie's best album, as does Urban. But it's completely down to opinion, and Bowie fans tend to have widely differing opinions on his best albums.

I'll suggest some more tomorrow.

I have only heard the one King Crimson album, so of course I will add them. My list is only rough and most of it will be removed. I'm torn between three Bowie albums personally-STATION TO STATION, LOW and HEROES. My opinion is always changing on which is my favourite.
