your 10/10 albums

[pompeii purple]

I can only say one is a solid 10 out of 10 for me: Violator by Depeche Mode. Only album that I could listen to over and over and over and never tire of it. Not very sophisticated, I know, but I love it.

Christ, I was just trying to watch a video about the album - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyDTPUs8SZs - and I had to stop because Gahan's speaking voice reminds me too much of that bastard John Terry. Ew.

Essentially perfect albums I consider to be a 9.0 or higher on my rating scale (out of 10).
In reality I don't think I've ever heard an album that is a true perfect 10, i.e. every song on the album being a perfect 10. If anyone can recommend an album they think is a true perfect 10, then please let me know, I'll be glad to listen!

Well my fav. album of all time is Dark side so that's an easy 10 but my 2nd fav is SGt. Pepper which might not even be a 10 simply 'cause of WYWOY & WI64. I love both those songs in a way but in all honesty I can't say I'd want them on their given the ideal of two more songs in the vain of GB or FAH or GMGM i.e 2 songs I think are cool. Also my 3rd fav. album is REvolver. Now that's got Dr.Robert which really is a very ave. song. She said she said is cool but if we're really being honest it's not a tune that really hit's the spot. So basically I'm a hard-ass when it comes to giving 10's out and I tend to be unforgiving about blemishes.
I think that I can find it in my heart to give some albums 10 even though there's blemishes so long as they aren't big blemishes and only when the rest of the album makes up for it in an overwhelming way.

Most of my favourite albums do have a short moment of 9/10... so a 10/10 album... hard to tell...

[rememberaday]

My 10/10 albums are 9/10 albums which get a 10/10 instead of their usual 9/10 due to moods.

I've been on a musical boycott the last few days, btw, so I can't think of any 10/10 or 9/10 albums.

[KidCharlemagne1962]

Mine are:

Highway 61 Revisited - Dylan
Kind of Blue - Miles
Blood on the Tracks - Dylan
Wish you Were Here - Floyd
DSOTM - Floyd
Animals Floyd
Aja - Steely Dan
Two Agaisnt Nature - Steely Dan
Royal Scam - Steely Dan
Abbey Road - Beatles

[rememberaday]

Abbey Road - Beatles

I like that album too, but I honestly don't think it's a 10/10. But it's personal preference, so....

[Flying pig437]

Mine are:


Wish you Were Here - Floyd

Have a cigar is pretty lame imo. It's pretty much filler. For WYWH to be a 10/10 then all the songs have got to be prettty much as good as each other and no one's going to say HAC is as good as the Shine on's or the title track.

Can't agree with that. Although the track is short for The Floyd it is far from being a filler. Roger's lyrics, delivered superbly by Roy Harper, are a damning indictment of the music business at that time ( and also quite amusing in parts - for Roger). The production and arrangement is also pretty damn fine.
