Your Favourite Album Of All Time

[Lee T]

I have so many but there can be only one for me
Pulse - Pink Floyd

It's an intense listen & a highlight, among many has to be High Hopes, the guitars on this track get me every time.
I can't imagine a better selection of "rock" tracks, played with such intensity anywhere in the universe.

 

[MotelBlues]

Big Star “Third/Sister Lovers”. It’s a great bunch of albums.

 

[Mike Hughes]

I’ve 42 albums I consider as near as damnit perfect. They cover roughly 84 years and I have no idea how I would narrow that down to 1 favourite or indeed why I would ever need to. All are favourited on my streamer and I have done so on the basis that I can select one at random or set up a mix at random and I will not come across a duff track. Neither of the first two suggestions appear. Although I’m a Big Star fan I’d say it’s a stretch to describe it as a favourite or perfect. Some classic tracks on there but only some.

It's a cliche, but for me it's Ziggy, every track is fantastic and they are in the perfect order. I can only think of about 5 or so albums I could consider perfect and this is the most perfect of them all. Never will I ever tire of it and considering I first listened to it nearly 50 years ago that's good going.

What's Goin' On - Marvin Gaye. It has been my favourite since I first heard it in my teens.

 

[BillT]

Bruce Springsteen - The Wild, The Innocent and The E Street Shuffle does it for me.

 

[darrenyeats]

It's a bit of a moving target but quite often I say Rumours.

 

[Woodface]

I don’t have one, thankfully it’s not necessary. I tend to bob about from one obsession to another. I probably have 10 or so favourite artists.

 

[Tony L]

Mine is Miles Davis Complete Columbia Albums Collection (Discogs).

That’s cheating

If pushed I'd have to pick a Radiohead album, but it would be a different one depending on when you ask me.

 

[rough edges]

Manassas - it defined the era like no other album I am aware of.

Was there and it's a great reminder of how good it was. Excellent live album.

 

[Pravda]

A cautious reply, would be, that some albums are favoured for the musical satisfaction I get, and some are for evoking a certain memory. The two are worlds apart, but favoured none the less.
Something by Little Feat for its musical content, and for memories, probably Marvin Gaye (she was my first love)

 

[Boudog]

Japan, tin drum, several copies, nice.

One of my 42.

 

[Graeme D]

For me it’s …. Pearl Jam ten. I bought it when it first came out and have never ever tired of it! I’m currently debating with myself whether to go and see them in Manchester but bony know if I can bring myself to pay the £180 for a ticket!

 

[AllyD]

VDGG - Pawn Hearts. First heard it when I was 17. A bit of a grower, but soon became my faourite album, and still is now aged 62.

 

[Rafal135135]

Nearly impossible choice ( probably around 20 close favourites) but if I had to choose one if would be Marilion - Clutching At Straws, strong and poetic lyrics resonating with particular time in my life and those guitar solos to die for. Close second Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway and Peter Gabriel - So
