That's such an Alan Partridge line
I did once drive a Lexus IS200
However I have loved U2 since I was 12, so that's almost 28 years of music so I am excusing myself and my cardigan
Bruce Springsteen - Born To Run, I bought this when it was released in 1975, and thirty seven years later I still play it, only eight tracks and a shade under 40 mins long. Simply stunning from the opening of Thunder Road to the climax of Jungleland and not a single weak song in sight. Pure heaven!!!

That's one of my top 10.
Portishead - Dummy
Usa
Plan B - Paint It Blacker (Bootleg)
So many samples it would never get released.........shame coz it's my favourite of his 4 Albums and deserves to be heard by more.
Favourite track that I've linked here is the Leonard Cohen sampled "Suzanne". Based on the "Camdem Ripper" it is quite harrowing.
I've listened to this album at least once a week since its release.
It was a real toss up between this and Bowies - Hunky Dory and Floyds - DSOTM. But next week it could be Dexys Midnight Runners - Searching For The Young Soul Rebels.

There is a Radiohead greatest hits album, released against the bands wishes
Love some of the above.
Dead Kennedy's and The Pistols - oh yeah! Add The Undertones, Stranglers, The Ruts, Pattie Smith, Siouxsie, Buzzcocks and Skids and you have a full house.
From the 80's some good ones but what about The Human League, OMD, Duran Duran, Heaven 17, Ultravox, Echo and The Bunnymen, The Specials, Yazoo etc.
Nobody for Oasis, The Stones, Marillion, Coldplay or Queen?
Kraftwerk - Autobahn
Green Day - American Idiot
Kaiser Chiefs - Employment
Phil COllins - Face Value
New Order - Power, Corruption and Lies
Wow this is tough........
No, Got it - Fleetwood Mac - Rumours.
Owned this for ever and it is just an amazing album. Gets me thought Dark days and High days. Bet you all know it. If not go get a copy.....

Was only just talking about this yesterday. 1995. New summer of love. All my flatmates also returned to our shared house with a copy after uni holidays. Cue late nights playing this, Massive Attacks Protection, Pulp Fiction soundtrack and Tricky's Maxinquaye.RubyBlueZ4MC said:
