    Default Favourite Albums

    As we've had a few music related lists the next logical step is probably favourite albums. So here's a top 10 of mine (subject to change):

    Never Mind The Bollocks - Sex Pistols
    Daydream Nation - Sonic Youth
    Any Half Man Half Biscuit album
    Stone Roses - Stone Roses
    Psychocandy - Jesus And Mary Chain
    If I Should Fall From Grace With God - The Pogues
    George Best - Wedding Present
    Heaven Up Here - Echo And The Bunnymen
    Madonna - And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead
    Dirty - Sonic Youth.

    Some will probably change over the next few weeks.

    I'll have a go at this, but I'm also going to start a new thread for your Top 10 Favourite Albums by Artists that are not in your lists of favourite Bands or Solo Artists.

    Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere - Neil Young
    Beggars Banquet - Rolling Stones
    Tommy - The Who
    Rhinos, Winos and Lunatics - Man
    If4 - If
    Pendulum - Creedence Clearwater Revival
    Abbey Road - The Beatles
    Village Green Preservation Society - Kinks
    Max - The Rumour
    Ring of Hands - Argent
    Thank Christ for the Bomb - Groundhogs
    River - Terry Reid

    Yes, I know that's 12 rather than 10, but I'm taking back control and using imperial units.


    ...and if I borrow English Settlement - XTC from Pubsignman, that'll make a nice round Baker's Dozen!

    I'm not even going to try and limit it to ten. I spent more time trimming the list from thirty to twenty, than I did compiling the thirty.

    JJ Cale - Shades.
    Kate Bush - Aerial.
    John Martyn - Solid Air.
    Joni Mitchell - Hissing of Summer Lawns.
    Bob Dylan - Desire.
    Working Week - Working Nights.
    Miles Davis - Kind of Blue.
    Zero 7 - When it Falls.
    PJ Harvey - Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea.
    Ian Dury & The Blockheads - New Boots & Panties.
    Gotan Project - La Revancha Del Tango.
    David Bowie - Aladdin Sane.
    Patti Smith - Horses.
    Nick Cave & Bad Seeds - The Boatman's Call.
    Steely Dan - Countdown to Ecstasy.
    Fun Lovin' Criminals - Come Find Yourself.
    Thievery Corporation - Richest Man in Babylon.
    Roxy Music - For Your Pleasure.
    'And where he supped the past lived still. And where he sipped the glass brimmed full' John Barleycorn, Carol Ann Duffy.
