Was racking my brain to try and pick my one album.....but the thread appears to have transmogrified into another 'favourite albums' list so I'll have to have another think now

Good point
I am sticking with my original because each of us has one and it will rise to the top for whatever reason

Lads you have to pick one

Just listened to Drukqs again and have to say that it is truly wonderful
If there's one album that is nearly perfect it's this
You get taken on a true journey of pain and beauty
Every sound designed to torment then cure you

Respect to you Tim, loving that list mate:emoticon-0148-yes:
 
This is why it's always going to be a tough call choosing a fave album. Reading everyone's posts and choices highlights just how much amazing music we have to choose from!

Good point. There's quite a lot of posters covering all bases and offering lists. I'm with you and sticking with my rather single naff offering. ( Only because I went to see them last week and they were bloody good. ) I did so on purpose. I do get the feeling that is often the case with these kind of threads. Folk have to go and post something that is not too popular and a bit underground. I think people relate more to the popular artists than someone they've never heard of. If you like Abba's greatest hits then all is well and good. Don't post that you love 'Norman's Flying Monkey's' ... 'I crashed my yoghurt lorry into my sister's back doors' for the sake of some kinda cool individualism that know one cares about instead.

Anyway having said all that, here's my favourite picture of Abba standing at the urinal ...

That's a pretty damning level of cynicism about both posters and the subjective nature of music.

I'm sure to anyone less than 20, Texas seems like an unheard of indulgence so perhaps we should all say Thriller and be done with it.

On those terms I will opt for Abbey Road by the Beatles.

I spent ages thinking more about this, and although you said just pick one, there's a few I want to call out.

My original shout of Bob Marley's Exodus still stands, but my favorite live album is Live At The Marquee from Nine Below Zero - such energy and enjoyment from a true working band.

Formative years? One Step Beyond by Madness.

Album I'd reach for above all others? Talk Talk Talk by The Psychedelic Furs.

It's real difficult to decide on a single favorite between these four, so that's as defined as I can get...
