Good point...I could list ten different Top 10s lickety-split, depending on my mood. By the way, ebk, I am shocked that "West Side Story" wasn't on your list.

Lately, though, I can't get enough of Ain't Misbehavin'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John M Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 This was very difficult. I started with a list of about 50, and that was leaving out jazz and classical. In roughly chronological order Beatles Revolver Fairport Convention Lief and Liege Creedence Clearwater Revival Cosmo's Factory Yes Fragile Pink Floyd Meddle Santana III Deep Purple Machine Head Allman Brothers Band Brothers and Sisters Jethro Tull Minstrel in the Gallery Aerosmith Rocks If I could add one more, and it almost made the final top 10, it would be Renaissance Live at Carnegie Hall.

Great thread 👍 I like the SAHB also very much, some of the finest rock guitar music, IMHO 10 of my favorite albums: Rolling Stones: Sticky Fingers Beatles: 1967-1970 (Blue Album) Supertramp: Crime of the Century Supertramp: Breakfast in America Amy Winehouse: The Day she came to Dingle (It's not an album, but I love this concert so very much) Marianne Faithfull: 20th Century Blues Al Stewart: Year of the cat Manu Chao: Clandestino B-52s: B-52s Genesis: A Trick of the Tail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a wide variety of song styles and no pandering to popularity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1975NQ Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 In no particular order, these are probably the 10 I visit the most year in and year out: Heart of Saturday Night - Tom Waits Lick My Decals Off, Baby - Captain Beefheart Survival - Bob Marley Your Future, Our Clutter - The Fall Teenager of the Year - Frank Black Swing Easy - Frank Sinatra McCartney - first album Red Rose Speedway (2018 double disc version) - Paul McCartney Mirror Man Sessions - Captain Beefheart (only because I can't imagine my life without these versions of "Kandy Korn" and "Moody Liz") Village Green Preservation Society - The Kinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electrophile Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 The Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd In the Wee Small Hours - Frank Sinatra Kind of Blue - Miles Davis Blonde on Blonde - Bob Dylan The Joshua Tree - U2 A Love Supreme - John Coltrane Paul's Boutique - Beastie Boys Sea Change - Beck Stripped - Christina Aguilera (Yes, you read this correctly. It's a damn good album.) A Hard Day's Night - The Beatles I almost put "1" by The Beatles at #10, as it's all their US and UK #1 singles, but I thought a compilation might be cheating.
