In Through The Out Door from Led Zeppelin
Presence from Led Zeppelin
The Doors from The Doors
Who Are You from The Who
Let It Bleed from The Rolling Stones

For sure Physical Graffiti is my fav zep album but I just picked up the "remasters" cd...looking forward to checking it out.

Peter Gabriel Security- awesome

David Bowie "Ziggy Stardust"

Pink Floyd DS of the moon/The Wall

Black Sabbath (l loved the "Live Evil" cd with Dio)

Ozzy's Diary of a Madman just a little more than Blizzard of Oz

Beatles "Sgt. Pepper's"

Jeez there are so many.

I really liked some of the older live Judas Priest- I think it was "Unleashed in the East" that had some great songs also.

New stuff:

Well, I thought Creed was something special for a new band.

I like the guitar player "Buckethead" also. I think he is an extremely interesting artist.

And that's it for now

all pink floyd album's

 

[Abstract Pillow]

Wow, many a wonderful album listed! I'm surprised no one mentioned Jefferson Airplane's Surrealistic Pillow, one of my alltime favourites.

Remember what the doormouse said:
Feed your head
Feed your head!

Grace Slick has a beautiful voice.

 

[KGB47]

Marillion-Fugazi & Misplaced Childhood
Genesis-The lamb lies down on Broadway & Nursery Crymes
Rush-Permanent Waves & Moving Pictures
Ramones-Rocket to Russia
Motorhead-Fistful of Aces
Jethro Tull-Heavy Horses
Grateful Dead- All my bootleg tapes (88 shows)
Jazz-Anything and everything....

There are too many to list here, I love all music with the exception of rap and new country.

[Gamera]

Mr Bungle
Tomahawk
Fantomas

You can say that again.
That song 'somebody to love'
Blows me away everytime i hear it.

Even if i hear it 20 times in a row.

Ah there are so many good ones..

But how about

Public Enemy - It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back

Not really rock, but it did and still does rock

[Guest]

Heh... this seems like a "greatest pizza" thread, everyone's taste varies just a little bit.

I don't find myself listening to many "rock" albums these days, although I have to agree Jimi's "Machine Gun" on the Band of Gypsies album is pretty amazing. I always liked the Experience's set @ the LA Forum in '69.

I'm glad to see "Out to Lunch" got mentioned as a great jazz album.

ok.
