Well with Nick Drake it's really hard to decide, he didn't record that much, but everything he did record is magical1

These are records that I definitely get lost in, every time:
• Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea
• Guided By Voices - Alien Lanes
• Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
• Caribou - Andorra
• Brian Eno - Another Green World
• Harry Nilsson - Pandemonium Shadow Show
• The Roches - Moonswept

Yeah, it's more than 5. So what?

Sorry. Can't do it.
Those are all records that, once I put them on, I have to listen to all the way through. Or, rather, if I am interrupted while listening, it is startling to have to come back to where I am sitting at that time.

Oh, and that Roches record is from 2007. Amazing that they are making such astonishing music still nearly 30 years after their debit.

In terms of building a whole world you could travel to, no other CCR album comes close to "Bayou Country". It has a vibe all unto itself. "Cosmo's Factory" had a bunch of radio hits (and a bunch of blues and rock 'n' roll covers) but it's not even in my Top 3 Creedence albums.

This list would be more like 500 than 5 for me smile The Beatles alone
could fill it. And then you could just fill it with Jazz alone or a few other genres. But "Rock" alone can do the trick a hundred times over.

1976 - Songs In The Key Of Life - Stevie Wonder
1966 - Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles
1978 - And Then There Were Three - Genesis
1973 - Dark Side Of The Moon - Pink Floyd
1975 - Born To Run - Bruce

One of my best friends and music collaborators produced Born To Run smile

Geez, Queen, The Stones, Zeppelin,Bee Gees all have some magical albums. "Some Kinda Blue" Miles Davis man there's enough GREAT stuff in the past to last forever!



Thanks!
Peace Mike

@kurt - I understand... cosmo's quite more eclectic (but seen from far far Italy it seems as a whole as an american flag)
@mike - talking about the nice face of J. Landau? so you came close to the magic...

Yes, it is a 2-LP live one. Tough to choose a "best" Van Morrison album. By they way, I have astral weeks -- and I only consider it OK. If I didn't have it, I wouldn't buy it.

Hey Mike. Been lurking in the shadows. Haven't done much musicwise, except playing my guitar from time to time. Too many projects around the house and outdoor activities.

David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust (yeah Michael...my favourite all time album)
Chris de Burgh - Spanish Train & Other Stories (a classic by a great singer songwriter)
Harmonium - Harmonium (brilliant French Canadian band-too bad you don't know them-though you could "youtube" them)
Eagles - Hotel California
Various - 30 Years Of Stony Plain (technically, a compilation from a Canadian label, Stony Plain...but what magic on this one.

I'm not much of an album guy..there's just one for me. It's an old Country album:

"Night Life" - Ray Price (about 1962)

Every song on that album touches my life in way or another.

Like Al, I just never was one to collect and listen to albums and that was probably because I was too broke to buy one!

That's a great record...especially the spoken intro where Ray says "me and the Cherokee Cowboys are knockin' on your record player one more time..."

I think I have met more of these artists than really listened to the albums listed. Very interesting.

I was thinking of putting together a top 100 JPF Album list from our awards for people to check out. Same with songs. It's hard to compare voting from one year to the next plus the growth each year makes it problematic. I wonder if we could find volunteers to help compile such a list?
