FabSwingers.com forum: Favourite album

By (user no longer on site) OP

I'm listening to Urban Hymns by the Verve for the millionth time, safe to say, I think its my favourite album.

If you had to chose one album to listen to for the rest of your life, which one would it be.

FYI, this is NOT a joke thread.

I don't know if I could pick just one album. It's a bit like picking your favourite child.

Such a difficult question as the music my ears wanna hear is different dependant on my mood. I think I'd have to go for something tried and tested that will last to the end of time, so "Bat out of hell" by meatloaf of course.

However, I can but hope that one day I'll be wanting to listen to happy love songs that remind me in every verse how lucky I am.

If someone held a gun to my head and threatened to pull the trigger if I didn't choose then the deluxe 22 track version of The Liberty Of Norton Folgate (Madness) would get my vote but only because choosing is preferable to a hole in the head!!

Certainly in my top 5, but if I had to chose just one it would be The Stranger by Billy Joel. One of the very few albums ever recorder that doesn't have a weak track on it.

Newport Pagnell

I'd probably choose Bruce Springsteen's Born to Run. I also have Bryan Adams's Reckless and Billy Joel's Songs in the Attic in my top 3.

Then again (as mentioned in the thread earlier) Bon Jovi's Crossroad is pretty damn good and Iron Maiden's Number of the Beast rates pretty high too.

Love - Forever Changes

Mothers of Invention - Weasels Ripped My Flesh

Biosphere - Patashnik

Nick Drake - Bryter Layter

Prince - Prince

Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream

Not in any particular order but these are my go to ones
