Hey, Slightlymad... I LOVE Slipknots first album! I really thought it was ground breaking... After that I thought they became just a bunch of pretentious posers! :evil:
Mudvayne is a band that for me has held their muster since the beginning.


Did I just say that? "Held their muster". Does that mean what I want it to? :lol:

I was into mud untill they stayed at the hotel where I was running the maintenance department. The level of destruction made it personal.

Wicked the original Broadway Cast Recording #1

In no particular order:

Synchronicity - The Police
Shepard Moons - Enya
Back to Titanic - James Horner

Pooh, I can't come up with 5. I like a lot of different music, but rarely listen to whole albums.

succub'oz, i'm the same way, i listen to so much music. it's definately hard to find an album where i like every song. the albums i listed are definately ones where every song is just awesome. there are other artists i love to death though including: neil young, tom petty, death cab for cutie, tom waits, led zeppelin and lots of african music! i love amadou and mariam, salif keita, fela kuti, and zap mama. oh my, i just love so much music! :D

My top 5 favorite albums vary all the time according to my mood...but right now I can say they are:

Nine Inch Nails- Year Zero
Foo Fighters- Echoes, Silence, Patience, and Summer's End
Audioslave- Revelations
Eddie Vedder- Into the Wild
Godsmack- The Other Side

And in that particular order. :wink: I would google and photobucket the album covers, but at this point I'm too slightly buzzed on my Full Moon to try. :lol:

DUKE ELLINGTON: All Star Road Band Vo. 2. I work as a psych nurse. So when I get home sometimes I need to renew. This does it. You start out wth piano and horn arragements so achingly lovely in can make you weep...as the evening goes on..(this was a live gig where people danced...) you get more and more involved..until the band members are hollering at each other over the solos like soliders in a fire fight.

THE DRIFTERS All Time Greatest Hits and More. All the greatest songs by the greatest vocal group of all time. "Spanish Harlem", "Stand By Me" "There Goes my Baby"

THE COASTERS 50 Coasten' Classics. Yackety Yack. Don't talk back. What more do you need to know?

COMMANDER CODY AND THE LOST PLANET AIRMEN: Live From Deep In The Heart Of Texas.
Once in America, everywhere was NOT like everywhere else. You had regional differences...slightly different ways to MAKE rock and roll..enter the Lost Planet Airman..who mixed at least six or seven different kinds into one heady brew. You had cajun, country swing, old time R&B, doo wop, and a few more that probably escape me..Git It is a wonderful three or four part harmony that the kids would break into different parts and sing along with me in the car.

The Best of AL GREEN. Just GET it...he was the greatest soul singer of the 70's....
