Sat here listening to music… (my new Thursday night routine)

Want some inspiration.

Pick 3 favourite albums all from different bands.

Mine would probably be

Oasis- whats the story
Queen – greatest hits 2 (I know this isnt really a proper album but I love it)
Deadmau5 – Random Album Title

Clutch – Blast Tyrant
Dr John and The Meters – In The Right Place
Ugly Duckling – Bang For The Buck

Gazpacho…Missa Atropos
Tears For Fears ..Elemental
Ginger Wildheart…Market Harbour

These constantly change ..but there would always be a Gazpacho album in my top 3.

Fila Brasillia – Old Codes, New Chaos
Fun Lovin’ Criminals – Come Find Yourself
The Cure – Disintegration

Faith no more, Angeldust
Metallica, Master of puppets
Pink floyd, wish you were here

Cardiacs.. Sing to God
The Posies…Frosting on the Beater
Bob Mould…Silver Age

I reckon my list of 5 star albums is probably somewhere in the region of 20-30 so these are the first 3 of that list to spring to mind.

It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back – Public Enemy
Pieces of a Man – Gil Scott-Heron
Rum, Sodomy and the Lash – The Pogues

Buffalo Tom – Let me come over
Sugar – Copper Blue(and Beaster EP recorded at the same time)
Fugazi – In On The Killtaker

I never bought all that many albums, but:

Kate Bush Ariel
Bjork Debut
KLF. The White Room

Tonight it’ll be something like:
Darkness on the Edge of Town: Bruce Springsteen (a constant)
Exile on Main Street: Rolling Stones
It’s Too Late to Stop Now: Van Morrison

Tomorrow night 2 & 3 will likely change!

Skinny Boys – Weightless

Beastie Boys – Paul’s Boutique

Schoolly D – Saturday Night

3 is too few though – it takes a nation would be up there. Along with Paid on Full 2ht Eric B and Rakim along with BDPs Criminal Minded.

Wedding Present, George Best
Wheatus, Hand over your loved ones
Pixies, Surfer Rosa

Grandaddy – The Sophtware Slump
Kasabian – West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum
Milky Chance – Sad Necessary

Funkadelic – Funkadelic
The Clash – The Clash
Plastic Surgery Disasters – DK

3 off the top of my head.

Talking Heads – Remain in Light
Pink Floyd – Animals
Frank Zappa – One Size Fits All

Magazine: the correct use of soap
Austra: feel it break
Titus Andronicus: the monitor

At the moment. In half an hour it’ll be different

The Temperance Movement- the Temperance Movement
The Offspring- Smash
Dan Patlansky- Introvertigo

It changes all the time but right now
Ramones It’s Alive
Hoodoo Gurus Mach Schau
The Damned Machine Gun Etiquette

Double post

I thought you said it changes Pigface 😆

Magma – Mëkanïk Dëstruktï? Kömmandöh

Boredoms – Vision Creation Newsun

Gas – Königsforst

Disclaimer – like most, I have another twenty or thirty topping my list. They would include dubnobasswithmyheadman, LZ1, KOTJ, Hot Rats, Sabotage, Dots and Loops, Peggy Suicide, Five Leaves Left, Live at Leeds, Future Days, Expensive Shit

nb: profusion of ummlauts feature purely by chänce!*

* or is it some kosmische synchronicity? 😯

ABBA – Greatest Hits Vol. 2
Bee Gees – Saturday Night Fever
Blondie – Parallel Lines

(not sure if Carpenters is a band or not… 😀 )

Fresh fruit for rotting veg – DKs
Today is a good day – NMA
Exile on Cold Harbour Lane – Alabama 3

Tomorrows list would be different

Exodus – Bob Marley – the best and most influential album ever ( IMHO)

Random access memories – daft punk Great musicianship throughout and a history of dance music in one album

Thin Lizzy – jailbreak – just for the memories it has for me – sounds somewhat dated nowadays apart from “boys are back” maybe

bizarro – the wedding present

quadrophenia – the who
[video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwRp0MwLeB8[/video]

the bends – radiohead
[video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8LPPn0yYxA[/video]

well, today anyway… 😀

Hmm this week? I couldn’t pick an all time 3, music is very much dependent on my mood. And tbh, I just refuse to do it.

But this week I’ll go for, in no particular order:

Johnny Cash, At Folsom prison (Live).

Alex Chilton, High Priest.

Swan lake by the USSR TV and Radio large symphony orchestra (I know I didn’t name them, it’s awesome though.)

Cardiacs.. Sing to God

wowzers! 🙂

Rumours- Fleetwood Mac
Greatest Hits (US version?b/w photo)- The Police
The Singles- Feeder (good album, not sure it’s in my top3, but too fuzzy to think)

Nothing shocking : Janes addiction
Marquee moon : television
Nowhere: Ride

The Clash The Clash
Joy Division unknown pleasures
Pogues Rum Sodomy and the lash

Like others no way I could have a fixed favourite three so i decided top is defined as

To=today’s
P=first letter of band

Pearl Jam Rearview mirror (or Ten if I’m not allowed the “greatest hits”)
Paradise Lost – Draconian Times
Pantera – Cowboys From Hell

Leonard Cohen – The Best of Leonard Cohen (1975)
U2 – Unforgettable Fire
The Smiths – Louder Than Bombs

At least, I think so…

Louder than Bombs? Really? Apart from it being a compilation, as a piece of work it’s not even one of the Smiths top 3 albums 😉

I know it’s a compilation, but if I’m only allowed 3 with no repeat bands, then I have to take as much of one as possible!

Ask me tomorrow and you’ll probably get a different answer but today it’s…

The Who – Who’s Next
REM – Murmur
Soundgarden – Badmotorfinger

Stone Roses Stone Roses
Lou Reed Transformer
AC/DC Powerage.

The The ‘Mind Bomb’
Steve Mason ‘Boys Outside’
The Breeders ‘Last Splash’

The Breeders ‘Last Splash’

If the op said 4 albums this one would have made my list!

Off the top of my head

Doves – Lost Souls
Morcheeba – Big Calm
Paul Weller – Stanley Rd

Now thats what i call christmas
Fresh hits 97
Greatest Airguitar volume III
