Hi guys and gals:)

what do you think is the best musical album time?



don't rip me off for this but i rekon its the red hot chilli peppers's: californiacation album:D



the story behind this is a argument i got into at school a couple of days ago.:) and i just wanted to know what you guys (and gals) thought.

The best album of all time is Led Zeppelin's fourth album, known as Led Zeppelin IV, or "the Runes Album" after the four mysterious symbols that comprise it's actual title. This has actually been proven true by science, as well as being a point of common agreement among cross-cultural social philosophers, theologians and taxi-drivers.

Or any of their other studio albums.

What a lovely idea for a thread.:)

Regards,
Rusty.

RHCP is good, Led Zep will be in the top 10 for sure, but Metallica / Pearl Jam / U2 / Hendrix / ... arrgh the list just goes on :cool:

Abbey Road (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbey_Road_%28album%29), The Beatles (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Beatles), released September 26, 1969.

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f2/AbbeyRoad.jpg/200px-AbbeyRoad.jpg

That's a personal opinion anyway. Worldwide opinion I suspect goes with the Eagles: Their Greatest Hits album from 1976 (?). For the audiophiles, probably Roy Orbison and co in Black and White Night, 1987, which is just awesome listening in SACD.

Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique 1989

When hip hop was young enough to not be commercialised and you could cut and paste just about anything together to make a song, funk, jazz, rock, reggae and even a touch of Bob Dylan

I'm not sure if this really qualifies as an "album", but Martha Argerich playing J.S. Bach's English Suite (on Deutsche Grammophon), or perhaps Martha again, with the Rach 3, under Karajan, or...

Hmm, so much depends on context, mood, etc

Maybe the Led Zeppelin album with "The Hangman's Tale"?, or Enya's first solo Album?

No answer, because none is possible :)

Off on as hijack...

Local radio station is running a TOP 1000 Countdown :cool:

Get listeners to vote for their favourite 10 songs, then add up the 100,000 votes and make up a top 1000 songs.

At least we have 2 weeks of no repeats, but the 2nd week will be a lot better than the first one :cool:

Think they got to number 940 today....

A couple of caveats first:-

- I don't have a single favourite album

- Assuming that compilations, greatest hits collections and "Best Ofs" are excluded;

Here are some to think about:-

Money For Nothing - Dire Straits
Pet Sounds - The Beach Boys
Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles
Back To The Roots - John Mayall (And Some Memorable Men)
Madman Across The Water - Elton John (best thing he ever did)

Have to agree with driver.
When I was a kid I thought Meatloaf's bat out of hell was a real balltearer, not a bad song on it. I listened to it last time I did a long car trip alone. Don't have the same opinion anymore.:confused: :confused: :confused:
nowadays anything by Dire Straits is ok by me.

Kottke invited him backstage after the show and was so impressed with little brother's playing (in the Kottke style) that they had a jam session. He's also a big fan and adept of Robert Fripp (King Crimson).:):cool:

I always think of them as the desert island albums, and the list swaps around...which ones could you take if that's all you could listen to.:D

1/something by Van Morrison, not a Best of, maybe 'Common One', classical almost.
2/Johnny Winter 'Nothin' but the Blues"
3/ Dire Straits self titled, their first one and the best debut of all time!
4/ Pink Floyd 'Wish you were here'
5/ Red Hot Chilli Peppers 'Californication'

but where's Paul Kelly, KD Lang, Corey Harris, Harry Manx....?:eek:

Good question ss!

I'm with Major Panic - Pink Floyd and Dark Side of the Moon - great album that, very inspirational for a bit of poetry and a bit of artwork to go with the poetry. Must dig out that album tonight for a listen.

My second choice is Queen - all their 80's and 90's releases and not as many of their 70's releases.

Zed
21st February 2006, 10:57 AM
WHAT A SUBJECTIVE QUESTION!!! impossible to define universally but mine are currently listed as :

dark side of the moon - P Floyd
machine head - Deep purple
Hot rats, Make a jazz Noise here, Zoot Allures, Apostrophe, YCDTOSA V 1-6, Grand Wazoo - Zappa
Best of Cold Chisel (technically not an album... but...)
honeymoon is over - cruel sea


In fact anyone who is serious about thier music and hasnt heard it - I suggest you listen to Hot Rats - it is a truely awesome album.

I bet no-one lists Rogue Traders (are you paying attention Harry72?? :D :D )

Felder
21st February 2006, 11:19 AM
Has anyone heard the latest "Rogue Traders" album? Instant classic! What a great band! Sorry Zed.:p:p;)

Californication is a good album but I prefer Blood Sugar Sex Magik from RHCP.
And the Honeymoon Is Over was good but I preferred Three Legged Dog from The Cruel Sea.

My personal favourite though is 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 from Midnight Oil.:D:D

So many more to list..........so I won't.

But Pink Floyd would be up there, as well as Led Zep, but sorry Ruffly - Queen doesn't come close in my book:o

Let it Bleed, closely followed by Dark Side of the Moon.

Bit of Trivia. Remember about 10 years ago, all these 70 and 80 bands suddenly leapt out of retirement and hit the road again? Apparently a lot of them used a Seppo investment adviser who got a bit up himself, and blew the lot on some 'highly speculative' investments and then shot thru.

Oops, there goes the super!

Hence dust off the glad rags, have a shave (or not) and hit the road - due to overwhelming demand, of course.

RufflyRustic
21st February 2006, 11:33 AM
From memory, Queen did a song about their manager who did something like that to them - Death on Two Legs.

Felder, no problems. I can't stand Red Hot Chilli Peppers and especially Californication.

So many albulms...... so little space to wite them down.

From reading the thread I feel it is very subjective, but mostly I think it depends on the age of the individual and generally the music that sticks with them is from between mid teens to mid 20's. On the whole whether we like it or not we end up having an "era" of music where we sit. Some embrace that, others (like me) try to not be boxed, but I still end up with the same 10 or so albulms in my classics lists and they all reside around the grunge era of the 90's.

You see i'm like Felder, I like RHCP, but to me blood sugar sex migik is heaps better than californication. I was in year 11 in 1990 when it came out in Aus.

My father intro'd me to Tom Waits too, but I like some of his newer stuff better, not real new but sordfishtrombone, raindogs, and bone machine are standouts for me.

OK albulms - as at time of writing, music means a lot to me so I change this list quite regularly. No particular order.

Foo fighters - The colour and the shape
Metallica - Load (purists will lynch me, but the new direction was cool)
U2 - Actung baby - again totally new direction and groundbreaking
Nirvana - smells like teen spirit
Bruce springsteen - born in the usa

I could go on and on and on..... these are standouts for me because they were in a lifechanging period, I would also say that at the moment they would not be considered "classics" like some of the previos names, but also most of those are 70's albums and therefore have had an extra 20 or so years to earn the title. We'll check back in a decade to see how I'm fairing :D :D

Also have got an awesome DVD "Live at the Grand Olympic Auditorium" which has a lot of footage of when they played at the 2000 Democratic National Convention............heaps of people got caned by Riot police...shooting rubber bullets straight at people instead of bouncing them off the ground like they're supposed to.

I'm almost with you there Felder, its a toss up between the RHCP albums, but I think the earlier Cruel Sea albums were better!!:D
Hard to stop at 5 albums isn't it! Michelle Shocked 'Short sharp shock' is close in my top 10; for the real old stuff I guess a Rolling Stones album should be included...'Get your Ya Yas out' was a good live album, but love listening to 'Goats Head Soup'; Led Zep, 'Physical graffitti'; AC DC, 'If you want blood' another cracker of a live album.
Of course its all really subjective, and most people default back to music that equates with their good old days...but I have suspicions about people that sort of stop listening. Does that mean their own good times ceased? I mentioned the Desert Island albums to my boss today, a real music groupie, and he said something about depending on your mood, then he changed tack and said "Depends on which island!" :D LOL

Watched rockwiz Sat night, he did a great job you're right. How about Sarah Mcleaod though, she fully held her own with angry, she has a great rock voice, taking over the next generation of Suzie Demarchi (baby aminals).

Master Splinter, and others of the genre - did you catch SBS last Tuesday. On Hot docs they had a 1 1/2 doco on punk and its roots - The velvet underground, Bad brains, dead kennedys, clash, pistols, black flag etc etc. I taped it and watched last night. Quite good.
