I should start over. How about top tens that are never on anybody's top ten?
Forever Changes
Paul's Boutique
Music Has the Right to Children
If I Could Only Remember My Name
Oar
Unity
Nation of Millions
I'm Still in Love with You
Sticky Fingers
Tie- The first four Black Sabbath albums
These are my favorites. I think.
ok. i'll take a whack.
coltrane- village vanguard
neutral milk hotel- in the aeroplane over the sea
the band- music from big pink
curtis- s/t
ray barretto- acid
wu tang- enter the wu tang
bob marley- natty dread
van- astral weeks
pavement- wowee zowee
guided by voices- bee thousand
yeah, i hate my list already.
Talking Heads- '77
Funkadelic- S/T (duh -------)
Can- Future Days
The Congos- Heart of the Congos
The Stooges- Funhouse
gbv is the more sentimental pick; southwestern ohio boy.
both records are great, but i think you could use another soul record on that list.
aretha- never loved a man
Aw shit. How did I forget the first Funkadelic lp? See ya Sticky Fingers.
Sticky Fingers----Let it Bleed-----Exile---Beggars are all equal to me anyway.
I seriously considered Heart of the Congos and Funhouse would be number 12 or 13.
perfect. i was trying to fit that one on my list.
Astral Weeks
Only Built for Cuban Linx
Rubber Soul (but really it could have been any Beatles album)
Marquee Moon
London Calling
Low End Theory
Sweet Exorcist
Axis Bold As Love
Paranoid
Velvets Live
Edited that shit already...
Max's? or the one on Mercury? Or is there another?
Agreed. Ocean on there is a facemelter. Even outside of recording quality, the Max's date sucks. Sans Moe Tucker! Fuck all that.
13th Floor Elevators - Easter Everywhere
Velvet Underground - S/T
John Coltrane Quartet - Love Supreme
Miles Davis Quintet - Kind of Blue
Bobby Hutcherson - Patterns
Tadd Dameron - Fontainbleu
John Lee Hooker - Legendary Modern Recordings
Django Reinhardt - Complete Recordings with the Quintet of the Hot Club of France
Various - Get Low Down: The Soul of New Orleans 65-67
Now!
I Want You
Bill Withers first one
In a Silent Way
Bulahoe Mindstate (sp) (running through the trenches)
Bryter Layter
Hell Yes
Sargent Peppers (My personal Beatles pick)
Ornette Coleman - The shape of jazz to come (could be a trade of with change of the century though)
Temptations - Cloud Nine
Jimi - Electric Lady Land
Alkaholics - Coast II Coast (hate away but this is one of my favorite hip hop lps)
Wu Tang - Enter the Wu Tang
Monk - Straight no Chaser (could easily be Underground)
Coltrane - Blue Train
Both in heavy rotation past few weeks.
I would probably scratch one of these for the meters S/T. I also need room for Dylan record (Blond on Blond?) fuck this shit is hard.

I thought about unplugged. I am not really sure which of the two I like better though.

Thelonious Monk - Brilliant Corners
De La Soul - De La Soul Is Dead
Duke Ellington - Money Jungle
Funkadelic - Maggot Brain
Nas - Illmatic
Miles Davis - Sketches of Spain
John Coltrane - Lush Life
the production on in utero is retarded. i should have put it on my list.
can we change to top 20?
Ice Cube "Death Certificate/America's Most Wanted"
Jay Z "Blueprint"
Ohio Players "Pleasure/Pain/"
Jodeci "Diary of a Mad Band"
Stevie Wonder "Innervisions"
Tribe "Midnight Mauraders"
Slum Village "Fantastic Vol 1"
Curtis Mayfield "Curtis"
NWA "Evil4Zaggin"
Marvin Gaye "I Want You"
Still Standing - Soul Food is a better album, but this definately has the more "personal connection" for me.
Fresh
Tago Mago
The Stylistics
Astral Weeks
Ghetto Music
Highway 61 Revisited
Freedom Now Suite
Up For the Down Stroke - This may be a head scratcher but I think it's the collective's most overlooked album. There are songs on here that sound like nothing else, "Presence of a Brain," "All Your Goodies Are Gone," "The Goose." I play this record more than anything else I own.
