best 25 ever, ben? some of those alubms are aight, but not exactly revolutionarly (bloc party, taskforce, glc, stills, killers).

i have 5 of sonic's list.


Title: 100 greatest albums \o/
Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, April 18, 2005, 01:58:13

Title: 100 greatest albums \o/
Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Monday, April 18, 2005, 02:08:54
No they are my top 25, mainly the ones I listen to most rather than any other criteria. The Bloc Party album is truly great and easily in the best 100 albums ever.


Title: 100 greatest albums \o/
Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Monday, April 18, 2005, 02:12:30
The real list had Madonna in the top 10 and also guns and roses, neither come close to anything in my list. There's not really anything particularly revolutionary about Definitely Maybe, the Joshua Tree  Appetite for Destruction or most of the top 10 anyway.

Shame  :cry:

if there's anything you had on vinyl you'd like on CD, just tell me and I'll make a copy in exchange for a bottle of water, or something  8)

My top 25 are albums I've either listened to a lot, really enjoyed over a lengthy period of time or mean a lot to me. There's stuff in there I don't really listen to anymore (Manics being the main one) but I had them in. If I remade my list to my top 25 of all time, I'd probably end up putting stuff like The Bends and Parklife in, even though they're nothing special.

How can you do that?

so you'd have YOUR top 25 albums and a separate list of what you think other peoples are?


Title: 100 greatest albums \o/
Post by: Reg Smeeton on Monday, April 18, 2005, 11:30:39
If you take out the element of ranking, then the 100 is a pretty good cross section of music from the last 50 or so years.

  When considering all the 1000's there are to pick from.  

  As an estimate I would say there were only about 15 acts here which I don't have something from, either on vinyl cassette CD or mp3.

no, i'd have my top 25 greatest albums ever and my 25 favourite albums ever; i think there's a difference because although i might really love glc's greatest hits, for example, i wouldn't ever consider putting it on a GREATEST albums list.

Title: 100 greatest albums \o/
Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Monday, April 18, 2005, 14:01:22
Unbelievable how Robbie Williams always end up in these things. That's really taking the piss, 100 worse albums ever possibly but 91st best ever album?????????????? and fucking dil-dido FUCK OFF!

My picks from that list would be:

RADIOHEAD - OK Computer
NIRVANA - Nevermind
OASIS - Definitely Maybe
OASIS - (What's the Story) Morning Glory
THE VERVE - Urban Hymns
JIMI HENDRIX - Are you Experienced
THE SMITHS - The Queen Is Dead
RADIOHEAD - The Bends
THE STONE ROSES - The Stone Roses
SEX PISTOLS - Never Mind the Bollocks Here's the Sex Pistols
JOY DIVISION - Closer
THE ROLLING STONES - Let It Bleed
BLUR - Parklife
THE WHITE STRIPES - Elephant
BLACK SABBATH - Paranoid
THE SPECIALS - Specials
THE CLASH - London Calling
THE PRODIGY - The Fat of the Land
THE VELVET UNDERGROUND - The Velvet Underground and Nico
PIXIES - Doolittle
THE LIBERTINES - The Libertines
HAPPY MONDAYS - Pills 'N' Thrills and Bellyaches
THE WHO - Tommy
AIR - Moon Safari
THE JAM - All Mod Cons
JEFF BUCKLEY - Grace
PULP - Different Class
KRAFTWERK - Trans-Europe Express
MASSIVE ATTACK - Blue Lines
PRIMAL SCREAM - Screamadelica
DE LA SOUL - 3 Feet High and Rising
THE STROKES - Is this It
PUBLIC ENEMY - It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back
JAMES BROWN - Sex Machine
THE STREETS - A Grand Don't Come for Free

So that's 35 great albums on there. To be fair that's much better than most of these polls and those are only the ones I've got, I left off quite a few that might be good but I haven't really heard.
