Loveless by My Bloody Valentine.

Nothing has come close since. Actually the Crystal Castles album was very exciting, but too patchy.

Not original but for me it's got to be Stone Roses but then again unfinished monkey business by Ian Brown is also up there so what does that make me!!

Recent favourites are Elbow and also playing loads of Johnny Cash lately whilst riding

Some very good calls on here. A bit perplexed about any references to Mansun and the very odd one for AC/DCs Powerage (surely there are many better DC albums than that one?)

But may I suggest some early Sabbath (really anything with Ozzy on vocals). The new GnR album is cracking (no, really - I LOVE it. Suitably impressed here).

A bit of earlier Blur wouldn't go amiss either.

Black Sunday, Cypress Hill

Dr Dre, 2001

Early Genesis (with Gabriel on vocals)

Interpol, Antics

Iron Maiden, Iron Maiden and Killers

Any Zepellin

I could go on... ๐Ÿ™‚

I can't say I have a favourite album ever (my favourites change over time).

However two albums I [i]keep[/i] coming back to are:

Whats Going On - Marvin Gaye
Greetings from LA - Tim Buckley

Current favourite album though is Doc Watson's Trouble in Mind country blues comp (with emphasis on the country).

There's no way on earth I could choose one album. Some of the most memorable, life changing milestones over the years are:

Mike Oldfield - Incantations & Ommadawn
Slayer - reign In Blood
Metallica - Master Of Puppets
RHCP - Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magic
Hallucinogen - Twisted
Shpongle - Are You Shpongled?
Plastikman - Muzik
Eat Static - Abduction
Sven Vath - The Harlequin, The Robot & The Ballet Dancer

Oops, that's a top ten, soz!

I still love that album!(their first one was even better.)

Think they went off the boil after that though - not keen on the metal crossover and R&B sounds creeping in...
I saw them live a few times in their heyday - superb!

The thing I like about favourite music threads, is the massive diversity!
One person's all-time fave band / album ever - and you've never heard of them / it!

Variety is the spice n' all that! ๐Ÿ˜€
