This is a chance for you to post your top ten cds, much like the essential tv-show-dvd thread elsewhere.

I'd like to throw in a few "rules.' They're like the "rules of poetry" That is to say, you can break them if you want but it makes it more challenging if you don't. I'll try to justify all rules.
Rule 1: 10 Albums only. (Otherwise you get too many)
Rule 2: At least 3 albums must be pre-1990 and 3 post-1990 (To stop people concentrating on a single era and encourage diversity)
Rule 3: No more than 3 albums by a single artist, including variations where s/he has gone on to be the principal of another band. eg Paul McCartney is a principal in both the Beatles and Wings but David Groll, while the principal for the Foo Fighters, wasn't the main man for Nirvana, so I'd count them as different. (Again, for the sake of diversity)
Rule 4: No multi-artist compilations, live albums or "best ofs" unless the vast majority of the music appeared on the album for the first time. eg Joe Jackson's Big World album is entirely original work, even though it was recorded live. (To avoid comparing twelve years' output with twelve months'.)

Pre-1990
Highlights of a Dangerous Life - The Johnnys
Who's Next - The Who
Lost and Found - Jason and the Scorchers
Post 1990
Clear, Impetuous Morning - Jason and the Scorchers
Yoni - Ginger
Charmed, I'm Sure - The Charms
Others
Let the Beatings Begin - Disciples of Loud
Empire Builders - Jason Ringenberg
The Wildhearts Must be Destroyed - The Wildhearts
Where the Bee Dances - Michael Nyman.

I honestly don't have enough must haves yet to fill a list and obey the rules... I'll just lurk, read everyone elses and maybe find some more for my own list.

I'd fill my own list with Jimmy Buffett and Bob Marley... Yeah I need to broaden my musical horizons.

FINN MAC CUMHAL


1. Strangers In the Night -- Frank Sinatra (1966)
It’s hard to pick a single Sinatra Album, but if I were forced to I would have to go with this one. It has the unquestioned classics “Strangers In the Night,“ “Downtown” and “Summer Wind.”

2. Carnegie Hall Jazz Concert -- Benny Goodman and His Orchestra (1938)
In the late thirties, Goodman played several concerts that spiced up the usual Foxtrots that were popular in the day with hot-tempo jazz called “killer-dillers” - 200 beats per minutes - which created a new phenomenon in American music, giving birth to the Swing era. This is one of those concerts.
Now I know that perhaps this might violate Hughff’s rules about compilations. Orchestra’s rarely played the same song the same way twice, and in particular in the early years of Swing, bands like Goodman’s Orchestra would really spice up tunes searching for new ways to invigorate the crowd. So even though these pieces may not have appeared on this album for the first time, it’s still representative of a certain degree of originality and certainly of a very specific era.

3. Come Away with Me -- Norah Jones (2003)
Norah Jones is a prodigy of smooth jazz. Her debut album accomplished in a single motion what most artists never achieve. Complex music like Jazz has fallen to the side of flashier hits since the 70s, but somehow Jones took the single “Don’t Know Why” to #30 in the Billboard 100 and #21 on the Top 40. Mostly I think it was her voice. In a time, when almost all music is lyrical, Jones found a way to bring the smooth jazz instrumental rhythms into a lyrical form that captivated the nation long enough to win her eight Grammies in 2003.

4. Garbage -- Garbage (1995)
Although most might say that Nirvana epitomized the Alternative Rock movement of the 90s - I still prefer Garbage and Pearl Jam.

5. Get A Grip -- Aerosmith (1993)

6. Toys In the Attic -- Aerosmith (1975)

7. 52nd Street -- Billy Joel (1978)

8. Hotel California -- The Eagles (1976)

9. ?

10. ?


I can’t think of a 9 and 10 and instead of repeating artists, I’ll reserve those for later, when I think of a good album to go there. I’m late for work, so I can’t put any more thought into this anyway right now.



Nihil est incertius vulgo, nihil obscurius voluntate hominum, nihil fallacius ratione tota comitiorum.

Nothing is more unpredictable than the mob, nothing more obscure than public opinion, nothing more deceptive than the whole political system.

Not sure if I could settle on ten but I have to say Mobbex and Singate, OUTSTANDING choices!

I could live with either list.

Edited to add:
Good to see a Pearl Jam album that is not Ten
Also, has anyone seen Alice in Chains recently? I was a lil unsure of the new singer until I saw them in HOB: Myrtle Beach. I was impressed.

I was beating myself up over which Pearl Jam album to choose. I don't think I would have been wrong to go with any of their first 5 albums but I find myself drawn to No Code more than the others.

As far as AIC I can't imagine anyone filling Layne Staley's shoes. That man had such a unique voice and the emotion he brought to the lyrics was overwhelming. Does this new guy have a sound of his own or does he imitate Staley's style?

Yup, Yield/Vs. coulda won.

Actually, and totally not copping out here. A lil of both. True, he or no one could ever be Layne. But Duvall does the songs justice and that is all I could ask to re-live some good times. We also lucked up. One of the opening bands did not show in HOB. So, we got three long sets. 2nd being totally acoustic.

"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." -- William Casey, Reagan's presidential campaign manager & CIA Director (from first staff meeting in 1981)


In no particular order of importance or preference, here are 10 albums nobody should be without...

Pre-1990
1. Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon
2. Eric Clapton - Just One Night
3. Talking Heads - More Songs About Buildings & Food
4. The Clash - London Calling
5. The Beatles - Revolver
6. Miles Davis - Birth of the Cool
7.Elvis Costello & The Attractions - My Aim Is True

Post-1990
8. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Murder Ballads
9. Pearl Jam - Ten
10. Leonard Cohen - The Future


But there are just SOOOOOO many more that are so crucial... How can anyone choose just 10? There's no room left for my Hendrix, Nick Drake, John Lennon, Bauhaus, Squeeze, ELO, One Dove, William Orbit, Bach, Beethoven, Schubert... There's just far, far, FAR too much great music out there to have to narrow it down.

Sarah McClachlan was one that I was trying to remember. I shall switch Wang Chung for her Fumbling Towards Ecstasy.
As for jumping on the Butch Vig bandwagon, I was going to put The Cheaters on, but couldn't fit them in my ten. Predating both his Nirvana and Garbage work.

Hey a fello JMJ fan, Hurrah! I considered putting down Oxygene aswell but Zoolook was the first Album I bought way back in the 80s as a lil' nipper and it blew me away. I'd heard nothing like it, and being a kid I was so into all the animal noises he used to make a tune.

But good call with Oxygene.

A cool new music thread? Like I couldn't resist posting. Here we go in no particular order:

1. Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, by The Smashing Pumpkins

This was a biggie for me. I'd been interested in music a a child, but this was the first time it really had greater meaning for me. Been a complete junkie ever since.

2. Nothing Like The Sun, by Sting

This album has always been a source of comfort for me. When I was little, I'd listen to this on my mom's stereo and just space out.

3. Cosmic Thing, by The B-52's

This is just an amazingly fun album to listen to. The music is vastly different than anything else that was going on at that time, at least to me. It may seem like nothing more than a pop album at first, but honestly it's so much more than that.

4. Kind Of Blue, by Miles Davis

A few years ago, I did a report on this for a jazz history class. And while I'm not the biggest Miles Davis fan, I certainly can't deny what an great talent he was, and what an amazing album this is.

5. This Fire, by Paula Cole

When this album first came out, I was going through a really rough spot in my life. Listening to this was therapeutic for me (and ironically, my mom and I used to play this on the way to my therapy appointments )

6. Whatever And Ever Amen, by Ben Folds Five

I miss this band. So many of these songs, from this album and others were just pure gold. This is definitely the type of music that never gets old.

7. Little Earthquakes, by Tori Amos

A lot of the stuff on this album can be painful to listen to. And it's even more so if you've ever experienced being isolated, rejected, depressed, or frustrated. Maybe not the happiest songs in the world, but certainly some of the most truthful.

8. Version 2.0, by Garbage

One of the most glorious mixes of techno and rock ever recorded. The tracks on here are hypnotizing, angry, painful, intense, and everything in between.

9. Issues, by Korn

I don't listen to these guys like I used to (kinda lost interest after Untouchables), but back in the old days, few things could top this album. I know some might lean towards Follow The Leader, but to me, this was their masterpiece.

10. Weezer (The Blue Album), by Weezer

Emo bands of today have nothing on these guys. And though they're not truly emo in the strictest sense, they certainly helped pave the way. Don't believe me? Listen to Say It Ain't So or In The Garage. Amazing stuff that a lot of bands still can't top.

And there it is. Sorry for the long-windedness; music tends to make me yammery.

If we could list compilations, there are some others I would have listed instead of those above:

Greatest Hits, by Eurythmics
Best Shots, by Pat Benatar
Galore, by The Cure

All great albums, and a great starting point for the artists listed.

In no particular order (except 1st 3 are post 1990)

Bruce Springsteen - The Ghost of Tom Joad
R.E.M. - New Adventures in Hi-Fi
Dixie Chicks - Taking the Long Way
The Rolling Stones - Sticky Fingers
Bruce Springsteen - Born to Run
Bruce Springsteen - The River
The Clash - London Calling
Johnny Cash - Live at Folsom Prison (broke a rule )
Patti Smith - Horses
Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros - Streetcore

Plently more that could have gone in, especially if we were allowed compilations. I think some artists really suit 'Best ofs' - the ultimate example is Creadance Clearwater Revival, but I also think The Beatles, The Kinks, Leonard Cohen and The Smiths all suit them too.

That is another reason why I am glad that I kept my vinyl. I have the album of "Fiddler on the Roof". Only movie musical I can stand.

But I also have the album to Miami Vice, the old tv series. Yes, I am dating myself with that one in particular.
