FabSwingers.com forum: Favourite Album

Scunthorpe

Hi everyone, Inspired by the Rock Music thread that's running at the moment, I thought I would pose the question What's Your Favourite Album... and why?

I've got a few albums that I really like, and two in particular that are favourites.

---Bonjovi's Slipery When Wet---

This album was a huge factor in my journey into becoming a musician. It's filled with hit songs and great album tracks. There's no track that you could describe as "A Filler", and I firmly believe that any track would have achieved chart success if it had been released as a single.

--- Alice Cooper's TRASH ---

I bought this album because I really loved the track Poison, but the entire album soon became a firm favourite. Although it's filled with hits, the Album in it's entirety is a work of art. There are loads of great songs, but it's the way it flows through the track list that really got me hooked... this is the one album that I will always try to listen through in track order.

Pink Floyd - The Wall I remember watching the film and desperately wanting the album. I had to wait for my birthday then played it endlessly.

Chris Rea - Dancing With Strangers I loved one album track and in those days there were no streaming sites. I bought the album and loved it ever since.

Lastly

Propaganda- A secret Wish as a heavy metal fan I only listened to rock music but one day at a girlfriend house she played the album (she was heavily into German art house music and scene) and I loved every single track immediately.

Looking forward to this thread as I love new recommendations.

I'm more a various artist greatest hits fellow.

Though younger I remember being able to listen to a few albums start to finish without interruption.

Fugees - the score

WuTang - 36 chambers

Beasty boys - hello nasty

One day I'll probably listen to 'Darkside of the moon' by pink Floyd whilst simultaneously watching 'the wizard of Oz', just to see if the rumours are true

Manic Street Preachers - Holy Bible. The best lyrics you will ever ever hear set to music, on an album which returns more nuance on each listening. It didn’t get the appreciation it deserved on release but now recognised by music critics as a masterpiece and probably among the best albums ever.

Transsexual Transylvania

Dead Can Dance - "The Serpents Egg"

A difficult call, given that "Within the Realm of a Dying Sun" and "Aion" are similarly transcendetal. But this album contains "The Host of Seraphim" and "Severance", which are my two favourite DCD songs. There is no finer album more worthy of the terms "cathedral of sound" and "timeless". This is the creativity of a peerlessly creative band at its peak.

Y&T - Mean Streak.

Shark Island - Law of the order.

Metallica - Master of Puppets.

Fields of the Nephilim - The Nephilim

Marillion - Script for a Jesters Tear

The Cure - Disintegration.

Far too many for me to pick an outright fave. What is the criteria?! I couldn't pick a top five! ...all depends on mood, memories, time, activity (just call me 'Rob Gordon')

But, I have said before so will say again; Holst's 'the Planets', if I had to listen to only one album for the rest of my life, would be the one.

Can't nail down to one, but music for me invokes memories and emotions that I feel I can still link to today when listening to them.

Marillion - Brave (an emotional rollercoaster)

NiN - The Fragile (obsessed with this album when it was released)

Rush - Exit Stage Left (1st LP I bought with my own pocket money)

Pink Floyd - DSOTM (they had me at Hello)

And on the other side is Nina Simones pastel blues.

I think it was Brian Eno (I didn’t cheat, honest)!

My big loves are other genres (soul, jazz, classical etc), but my favourite album is:

Hejira - Joni Mitchell

Amazing, atmospheric songs about travel and escape. Her wonderful lyrics and the imagery they create are a true joy.
