your 10/10 albums

[Enish]

There are very few albums that I consider to be 10/10 material, but the ones that I consider to be "perfect", at least for now, include Station to Station by David Bowie, Dark Side and The Wall by you-know-who, and OK Computer by Radiohead.

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.[/quote]


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.[/quote]

it's lenght isn't the issue. Also coming on hard on the heels of another song about those horrrid people who's business practises had just made Roger a very very wealthy man...Good luck t'yer if you like it. I just think it's a bit of a lame song. Never have liked it or WTTM which has got the feel of what life would be like under a Big brotheresque oppressive govt or corporation rather than a bit of sharp practises in the music industry. It's mood is totally over the top imo. At least the music is great though. As to the production and arrangement. Again it doesn't really subtract from the fact I think it's a lame song.

1.2.&4 although I wouldn't put them quite there for various reasons. 3 is interesting and I love it but only a few of the songs are outstanding the others...stuff like Well well well & I found out are pretty bland although John's zinging is amazing esp. that screaming on WWW.

My list, by now:

Deep Purple - Mk II is pure energy!!!
Led Zeppelin - All of them. No explanation necessary
Pink Floyd - From Piper to Animals ( we are in the biggest forum of Pink Floyd)
Yes - From Fragile to Relayer - virtuoso!!
Cream - THE power trio (short lived unfortunately...)
Jethro Tull - Aqualung and Thick As A Brick (Ian Anderson is actually the Piper at the gates of dawn)
ELP - THE (no guitar!?) power trio
King Crimson - A guy with curly hair and glasses is playing a black Les Paul in a chair, there is another playing violin and a lunatic playing God knows what... Nice sound!



I think it's a list of "your 10/10 bands" rather than "your 10/10 albums"...

Two thoughts:

1. Who is she?

2. 17 isn't 15.

EDIT: My 10/10 album right now is Cottonwoodhill. Bonus points for Dawn Muir sounding like she's having an orgasm.

[moom]

Oops, 17 indeed

She who? The one on the Kano cover? No idea.

What's that Cottonwoodhill thingy?

[rememberaday]

Check your RYM.

I could to that, I could Google, but... I feel like people are Googling a bit too much, when we could be just talking about stuff. Because that is always nicer, in my opinion. Googling is very useful, but... somewhat cold, plastic.
