I've just had a really shit day and on the way home just listened to the wonderful sexy voice of dear George (who just hasn't yet met the right woman).
Meatloaf, Bat out of Hell, may be brilliant, depending on the mood.
Marvin Gaye? Ok, sometimes. Ravels 'Bolero' is just for a long comfortable screw, and you need to have seen the film. But 'Faith' is just like a Martini, anytime anyplace. So what's the ONE best album in the world and why?
Linkin Park.. Hybrid Theory... Just brings back memories... some good, some bad!
If memory serves me the best album i've ever listened too is 'Dark side of te moon' it blew me away! Mind you i was fairly blown away when i put it on : :high-smile:
It would have to be Genesis - Selling England by the Pound as it was the first rock album I ever bought when it came out in 1973 and the solos in "Firth of Fifth" never fail to wow me.
I suppose the same also goes for Pink Floyd's The Wall and "Comfortably Numb".
no flower, no no no no no!
Nothing ever recorded by Duran Duran can ever in a million years be classed as any good! Honestly!!!!! Trust me on this one please.
Bloody fantastic live though! My knickers would have been thrown at the stage if I was close enough.
She's wrong. Mr Jamey this time, and it's a first for me.
George Michael may be ok and he was good live but Moody Blues and 'A question of balance' is as close to perfect as possible. Closely followed by Queen and 'night at the opera'. Or anything by Blondie, or is that me being influenced by a woman built like a godess with the voice of an angel?
And having read another thread, regarding married men, I'd just like to say that the likelyhood of the other half cooking anything that isn't using the ping method is slim to non-existant! Does she know that this house has a kitchen?
Surely everyone knows that the best album ever is Junkyard by The Birthday Party ?
Great thread!
Okay... having thought long and hard I am voting Sign O' The Times by Prince.
Double album, real mix of styles in there and some amazingly beautiful tracks both musically and lyrically.
Of course I was tempted to say the greatest hits compilation The Hits/The B Sides, which is a triple album of sheer bloomin genius, but I figured a greatest hits compilation was cheating a tad!!
Oh... and just to show that I do have other CDs in my collection (to explain jameybruce, I am a tad obsessed with Prince!!) then I was actually tempted to say Talking Book by the legend that is Stevie Wonder. Great album.
But no, am staying true to form (and avatar!) and going with Sign O' The Times. Every music collection should have one!
Ooooh, I love this thread! I love learning about other people's taste in music.

Fleetwood Mac, rumours. Hundreds of weeks in the charts and millions of people cant all be wrong.
Just takes me back to being 18 years old in 1995.
Going out with a 26 year old Woman (my first serious Girlfriend), dancing to tracks off this album at many House Parties & in Nightclubs in Liverpool.
Then going to Notting Hill Carnival & being wittness to Brooklyn Zoo being played
4 Times in a Row at the Rampage Soundsystem.
The beats are prime classic Wu-Tang, Producation especailly from The Rza is amazing & the language is both Sexually Dirty along with very funny YET always grime street.
Good rhymes from fellow Wu-Tang Clan Members guesting on certain tracks.
Real New York Hip-Hop at its best.
A must buy for your Grandmother at Christmas.

sorry Fabio you can only have one choice. So which would it be?
I'm too young (just) for the beatles and however wonderful they were (and I do have 'Let it Be' and 'Sgt Peppers' and both compilation red and blue doubles) they just can't compete with the best in the world ever!
Did have gershwin on this morning whilst working though, Rhapsody in Blue, and for chilling music it's a bit special. Goes down well with g&t in the sunshine!
Just had to put Rumours on... listening to it now as I peruse the forums...
That and a glass of wine.. my idea of bliss x
, but i like a really wide mix of music which would never be on one album all at the same time unless it was one i had made myself 
:lol: 
I don`t know !!
