The Ten Albums Every Man Should Own

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/men/thinking-man/10358000/Dave-Berry-the-10-albums-every-man-should-own.html

According to Dave Berry – I own six, which is not bad anyone own more?

that list is awful

WTF is Dave Berry when he isn’t listening to poor music?

Seven, or eight if my lad is included (I bought him Ed Sheeran).

As usual though, these lists are more about stimulating a debate than a consensus. For example, if you were to only own one Beatles album, I wouldn’t go for Sgt Peppers.

what a crock! no slayer!? or Fall!? or Fugazi!? what about ready to die? but but but….

6, though off to Spotify to add them in

Ed Sheeran, Kings of Leon, Arctic Monkeys & the Rocky soundtrack.. !!
Hahaha.

Capital Radio DJ

Was as far as I got in that.

Oh dear. 😐

I own two of them, and frankly that’s enough.

LA Woman – The Doors x10

Close thread

1 out of 10.

*wanders off feeling emasculated*

one is a movie soundtrack, another a best of, and one is Ed Sheran

For those reasons, I’m out

WTF is Dave Berry when he isn’t listening to poor music?

This.

I have the Portishead one, so… 1

Weird list, that. I thought it was only the laydeez that listened to Ed Sheran?

1 and looking down the list at no point did I think “Oh ****! I need to get shopping.”

You should really own three –

Oasis, The Beatles and The Who the rest seem a bit random.

Portishead are worth a listen for something different. You never know you might like it

Oasis, The Beatles and The Who the rest seem a bit random.

I had the Oasis album for a week or so, then moved it on. Never got into The Who. I’d say Revolver over Sgt Pepper, too.

A “Best Of…” is not an album.

I’ve got none of them. Do I win?

So this is the must have 10 bands if you have middle of the road tastes but want to appear edgy, hip and cool

A movie compilation album in a must have albulm list FFS

But if I’m honest I don’t know enough about the great John to recommend a specific album.

He got paid for this as well – WOW

i own one of them Sgt Peppers

None.

I’m not at all concerned. 🙂

the Rocky soundtrack.. !!

The man’s a fool. If you’re going to listen to the soundtrack from a Stallone movie, it should clearly be this one:

A “Best Of…” is not an album.

Tell that to Alan Partridge

Interesting, that “In praise of Samuel Smith pubs” link at the bottom of the page. Just scroll past the shite to get there…

so Ed Sheeran and Rocky but no OK Computer?

whatever, the man is a fool

Runs off to find a gun, who is this idiot !

Where’s No real music on there like ACDC, Slayer, or Hendrix

What about:

Smashing Pumpkins – Siamese Dream
Daft Punk – Homework
Orbital – Orbital II (aka the brown one)
Led Zepplin – Led Zep 4
Rolf Harris – The best of

0/10 thank goodness I failed.

Oh dear 9 if I include the wife’s Ed Sheeran
Wouldn’t say any would really make my essential list, even essential artists/bands have better albums than those on the list

i own none of them.
not that i care if dave berry reckons i’m not a man as a result. he’s a prick.

what a crock! no slayer!? or Fall!? or Fugazi!? what about ready to die? but but but….

No Loveless either, bizarrely.

This.

one is a movie soundtrack, another a best of…

Two of them are movie soundtracks. Onve of those two is an alright soundtrack album – and the other’s from a Rocky film?!?! He’s having a giraffe.

2 here (unfortunately one of them is the Oasis one, but I don’t get rid of albums even if I don’t listen to them anymore).
Why would anyone think they could produce a list that applies to “every man”?
Bell-end.

I got 3, maybe 4 if you include the Beatles album but that gets used as a Tea coaster.
