Your Favourite 5 Albums by any Artiste?

Post by yellowcakeuf6 »

Not really a poll and not one you could put in 'Stranglers polls' although a Stranglers album may creep into this now and again........
The Top 5 Albums, (for me, mostly on vinyl), that have meant the same to you throughout your life. The ones you can listen to on repeat and still haven't got fed up to the back feckin'teeth with? Have we done this before? Alias :?:

Mine: (subject to change.....)


(Not in any particular order)

Ooooh feck................... :shock:






The Stranglers - The Raven
The Tubes - What Do You Want From (Live)
Pink Floyd - The Wall
The Damned - The Black Album
The Cure - Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me




Ones that missed out..........

Elton John - Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy :lol:
Rush - Exit Stage Left
The Smiths - Hatful of Hollow
Fischer Z - The Worker
Muse - Showbiz
etc.......... :wink:

In no particular order

Therapy? - Troublegum
Big Country - The Crossing

The Stranglers - La Folie
Buzzcocks - Singles Going Steady (yeah cheating maybe?)
Clash - Westway To The World
Damned - Damned But Not Forgotten
Manics - Lifeblood

Maybe scrap Clash and replace with a Magazine album (but should the Manics stay in and the Clash be removed?!). Shit what about the Undertones? and XTC fuck!
