My choice is Massive Attack's Blue Lines. But what do you think is the best album of all time? Hopefully this will throw up a few forgotten gems.

Exodus. The album that brought reggae to wider recognition and it still sounds good today.
Massive attack? Good but will it be remembered 30 yrs on? Best of all time?

Massive Attack's Blue Lines is also my favourite album of all time (well, that or Global Communication's 76:14) - but I can't speak for all humanity.

Got to be 'Raw Power' by Iggy and the Stooges....loads of demented pantomime machismo, crunchy riffs and guitar solo's that'll slice the top of your head off....that, ladies and gentlemen, is rock and roll!

It's got to be the best part of eighteen years old already... Still as fresh as a daisy.

Fleetwood Mac's Rumours. An album made with the band pouring their hearts into it with superb songs. Stevie Nicks faboulous vocals and Buckinghams brillaint guitaring and song-writing. Absolute classic.

Impossible to choose just one but these would be in my top 100 :lol::

Disralli Gears - Cream
Nevermind - Nirvana

Gang of Four - Entertainment for me. But I don't expect (or want) anyone to agree. Each person has their own favourite album.
I mean, Blue Lines: tracks 1 & 6, total classics, the rest extremely average & forgettable.Posted 2 years ago # -
Enigma Variations - Elgar

I could have said U2 "Joshua Tree" or Oasis "What's The Story" and I'm a massive Killers fan having seen them twice this year. Beard - no no. 47 years old - oh yes

"Exodus"? Can I be possibly the first to say that Bob Marley was a mysogynistic, boring, dope-addled drug addicted cult follower with a head full of mystical tosh and bollox? Haile Selassie my arse. A man who fed meat to his pet lions and watched his people starve.
Thankyou.

Massive Attack's Blue Lines
never really got Massive Attack strangely but would have to put this as a contender, Tricky's Maxinquay. Don't listen to it that much nowadays but everytime I do it blows me away.
Others include
Ed Rush & Optical - Wormhole
Nirvana - Nevermind
Leftfield - Leftism
The Genius - Liquid Swords...it's a difficult one really - lots of others too.
I'm sure some new stuff could go in there also but will it stand up against time, how old does an album have to be before it gets into these things?

Mozart's Greatest Hits Vol. 1

Very difficult to bring it down to just one album !
However for me I think it would have to be,
2112 by RUSH
Some simply amazing technical musicianship especially unique.

Can't get youtube at the mo' but if that's a Bob Marley video, I've told you what I think of the overrated dope-head "Lost Tribe of Yiddle-e-bong" yawn-a-thon, so what's the point?
My favourite album of all time. Difficult. Off the top of my head:
"John McLaughlin Trio Live at the Royal Festival Hall 1989."
Might change tomorrow, though...
"Out of the Lion's Mouth" probably. By, er, me and some other guys.

Another vote for blue lines. Still listen to it regularly.
Saw massive attack again few weeks ago. Unfinished sympathy as last song?
Of course.
Also for me stone roses "eponymous debut"
Van Morrison Astral weeks
Beach Boys pet sounds
radiohead ok computer and the bends
Human League dare
Portishead dummy
spiritulaized lazer guided melodies
leftfield leftism
tricky maxinquaye and pre-millenium tension
primal scream screamadelica
sundays reading writing arithmetic
aha shake hearbreak kings of leoni like songs me

Ed Rush & Optical - Wormhole
