Top 3 albums

[thedevilsadvocate]

You like China Crisis ?. Nice one. One of their songs, Christian. Is such a special song for me. Emotional attachment.

Have a listen to the album if you haven't already heard it, it's a beautiful piece of work from a very underrated band.Produced by the late, great Walter Becker of Steely Dan fame !

 

[1966_and_all_that]

Revolver- Beatles
All things must pass- George Harrison
My generation- Who

I want to think that All Things Must Pass is brilliant, but....I like the Apple Jam stuff. I think there are some great songs on it. Do we really need Isn't It a Pity twice? Spector's production drowns the album. I suspect a George Martin production would have been cleaner and meatier.

 

[1966_and_all_that]

Anthology-The Beatles
Greatest Hits- Bob Dylan
Loaded- The Velvet Underground

Anthology - that's brave. Any particular one or all of it? BTW, the second one for me stands out.

 

[Wizzerboy]

Here's three obscure ones for you.

The flat earth .......Thomas Dolby
Fanfare..................The Skids
Tonic for the troops.. Boomtown Rats

 

[CAGU]

Tapestry - Carole King
No Secrets - Carly Simon
Disraeli Gears - Cream

Try difficult shapes and passive rhythms, also working with fire and steel.
Great early china crisis

If it's Thomas Dolby, then it has to be The aliens ate my Buick.

I agree Spector did ruin the album just like let it be imo, (why so much brass). And whilst there is songs like Johnny’s birthday there is greats like Wah-Wah.

Great early china crisis

Would love to see them. Very under-rated band of the 80's. Wish they'd been a support act for Tears for Fears tnoight and I would have got tickets.

[thefutureistangerine]

Top three is difficult. It changes a lot for me but these would always be in my Top 10 list:

The Magical World of The Strands - Michael Head & the Strands

Midnight Marauders - Tribe Called Quest

Time of the Last Persecution - Bill Fay

I got to work on Records by Mick Head and Bill Fay which have been career highlights I'd say.
