Your 5 "Can't live without…" albums

[Robn Kester]

For me, I have an easier time picking whole albums since they have a more fluid experience. I remember when the entire album was good music and had a cool start to finish vibe. Anymore, its 2-3 MTV friendly songs that can be singles with 10 junk tracks and call it an album.

Noone really makes true albums anymore I think.

Question of Balance - Moody Blues
Bruised Orange - John Prine
From the Mars Hotel - Grateful Dead
Blue - Joni Mitchell
Layla & Other Assorted Lovesongs - Derek & the Dominoes

i'm definately with the "not really an album person anymore" thing - i find a whole album of someone an overload and all sounds samey after a bit.

however:

Beastie Boys - i can't decide
Pink Floyd - ditto
Tool - Aenima
Smashing Pumpkins - Adore
Aphex Twin - Richard D James Album

5 is nowhere near enough though.

Hmm… Since then, of course, Opeth have released a new album – Ghost Reveries:




So I guess I would have to replace one of the other albums in my list, probably Damnation
