Your perfect album.?

IMO, There's nearly always a track on album that I think "Could have done without that one", when I was thinking of an album where I really liked every track I was thinking there must be a Beatles album, being a big Beatles fan, you know what? there's always a track or two I could do without, even Revolver, don't really like Eleanor Rigby or Yellow Submarine, with Rubber Soul it's Michelle

That’s been my experience too.

 

Bowie’s Young Americans album is nearly flawless for me, but I’ve never been able to fully embrace his version of Across The Universe so can’t genuinely say it’s one that I can listen to in its entirety…

If we were allowed to choose an album that is near perfect, bar one duffer, I think we would all have dozens of suggestions! For example, I can't stand the penultimate track (Lay me low) on this album but the rest is phenomenal

Opeth - Blackwater Park

Dead Letter Circus - The Catalyst Fire 

Dredg - Catch Without Arms 

The Gathering - If_Then_Else

That would have been my choice if it wasn't for the dire Jamaica Jerk-off

....if you had a rum and coke on a sun drenched beach with this one blaring out everything would suddenly make sense.

To each, their own, but no 🙂

The answer to this post is more difficult than picking your favourite child. OK then, Killing Joke by Killing Joke.

I only flicked through the five pages quick but I didn't see The Nightfly. Why not ?

I guess the poster who put Killing Joke, Mastodon and Voivoid as their top picks just forgot that they actually prefer Donald Fagen ?

XTC Go 2. Every track is a belter. I never enjoyed them much after this, even if that was their 'prime'. I guess that for me, there was a hole in the sound after Barry Andrews left.

Haden and Metheny in perfect harmony, not a note wasted nor a note superfluous.

Let There Be Rock.

Never tire of it. Lifts my mood every time, and each track feels like the best song on the album.

the nightfly is a perfect album....  but considering anything from steely dan is pretty much damn near perfect this should not be that surprising.

Actually, this:

 

and “Psonic Psunspot” too.

[gt4ever]

The Downward Spiral NIN or

The Bends Radiohead 

 

love every song, the order and intensity of both albums.

Californication, I was 34 when it was released but it still feels like an album I first heard when I was 13. Takes me to good places.
 

I’d love them to release a less compressed mix though 🤔
