ABSOLUTELY CANNOT MISS ALBUMS (of all time?)

Bonkers volumes 12, 13 and 15, if you're into the hardcore dance bit (Or want to get into it.

)

Also, Keith Jarret - The koln concert (It's made of epic win, but it's piano, not hardcore dance) and Sota Fujimori - Synthesized (Or at least the first disk. I've been listening to this a lot more for the last few days and it's some good good stuff.)

But with the exception of Keith Jarret, no one else 'round here likes that stuff.

To Contribute(i think..)

funny, I've been on a HUge Fleetwood Mac bender of late...mostly Tusk, but Rumours is pert near great too. Can't listen to a lot of the more contemporary greats w/out giving a nod to these albums - from Kid A to Midlake, from Kate Bush to Over the Rhine, from Magnolia Electric Co. to good Beck...it's the stuff.

Ok. Good. You've got Miles Davis listed. Kind of Blue is considered the best album of all time by a lot of people.

Check out Radiohead's OK Computer. A lot of people I know don't like them at all or haven't even heard of them. You might think it's a little off...but give them a try. Their new album In Rainbows is reallly good (IMP..of course)

The Mars Volta's De-Loused In The Comatorium is pretty good. TMV is like a progressive/psychadellic (did i spell that right?) band.

Hmmm.... that's all i got right now...

So, one album for one artist only list for me:

Eric Clapton: One More Car One More Rider
Dire Straits: Alchemy: Dire Straits Live
Pink Floyd: The Wall
Nirvana: MTV Unplugged in New York
Metallica: Live ****: Binge & Purge
Leonard Cohen: Live In London
Black Sabbath: Reunion
