Rod Stewart - Every Picture Tells A Story

The album that made me re-think Rod Stewart all together considering I didn't think much of him in my early 20's while he was beginning to release his Songbook collections...

Check out his singing with the Faces and the Jeff Beck Group....great stuff.

Oh yeah--have all the Faces albums. But I hadn't gone into The Faces yet when I picked up "Every Picture."

Always a difficult choice.....

1. Kind of Blue - Miles Davis
2. Otis Blue - Otis Redding
3. Blood on the Tracks - Bob Dylan
4. Exile - not sure who that's by.......
5. A Love Supreme - John Coltrane
6. All Mod Cons - The Jam
7. Sgt Pepper - Beatles
8. (What's the Story) Morning Glory - Oasis
9. Ziggy Stardust - David Bowie
10. Bitches Brew - Miles Davis


As always with these lists they are always subjective. My choices change every week and so several of them are interchangable, some are constant.

Oh, these lists worry me. I tried and, as usual, couldn't so I decided on a few rules: 1) no Stones album (because obviously they'd be there) 2) no album already mentioned (so no Libertines, Roxy Music, Kraftwerk, Beatles, Stone Roses, Pulp...) 3) studio albums only

and came up with, in alphabetical order:

Air - Moon Safari
Keren Ann - La Disparition
Syd Barrett - The Madcap Laughs
David Bowie - Low
Kate Bush - Hounds of Love
Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin - Jane Birkin/Serge Gainsbourg
Sly and the Family Stone - Stand!
The Smiths - Queen is Dead
Tyrannosaurus Rex - Unicorn
The Waterboys - Fisherman's Blues


In a couple of hours I'm going to be horrified that I missed X, Y and Z. Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.

Exile - Stones
Sticky Fingers - Stones
Bruce - Darkness Edge Of Town
Grateful Dead - American Beauty
Bowie - Ziggy Stardust
Dylan - Highway 61 revisited
Dylan - Love & Theft
Dylan - Blonde On Blonde
Dylan - Blood On Tracks
Neil Young - After The Goldrush

MEZ

I always have trouble with these because I always go to the Stones too much. here goes:

1 Exile on Main Street
2. Abbey Road The Beatles
3. Who's Next The Who
4. Are you Experienced Jimi Hendix Experience
5. Cosmo's Factory CCR
6. Born To Run Bruce Springsteen
7. Let It Bleed
8. Moondance Van Morrison
9. Blood on the Tracks Bob Dylan
10. Rubber Soul The Beatles

Teatro - Willie Nelson

Surprised by that choice, Koen. I'm a HUGE Willie fan myself. Don't remember picking that one up but I do know the track "My Own Particular Way" and was bothered a bit by the production. I shall have to pick it up.

I only have two of his albums, Teatro, and Redheaded Stranger. I only play Teatro - and love the songs and production by Daniel Lanois.

No order apart from Exile at no 1

Exile-Stones
Kind of Blue-Miles Davis
Crosby Stills and Nash self titled
Queen 2-Queen
Blue-Joni Mitchell
Notorious Byrds Brothers-The Byrds
Aja-Steely Dan
Anodyne-Uncle Tupelo
The Dreaming-Kate Bush
Appetite For Destruction-Guns and Roses

Honourable exceptions- After the goldrush,Southern Harmony and Musical Companion,Houses of the Holy etc,etc

some fantastic choices - love queen 2 Its hard to pick a best Kate Bush. The Dreaming is her "tonights the night" (Neil Young) - if such a thing were possible. But it is unique and creepy. Mysterious and fatalistic. By contrast Kates first album is drippy and dreamy - but it haunts me still!

Yep,it's hard to pick a Kate album,i even love Aerial which gets quite a rough ride.Even the weakest one,Lionheart has Wow on in which is such a beautiful song.I actually think she is a genius and there aren't many of those in rock/pop.

Got to say,when i watch people flock to see We Will Rock you i often wonder how many of them have heard or even heard of Queens 1 or2 and what they'd think of them if they did.I mean Ogre Battle for instance is as far away from Crazy Little Thing Called Love as you can get. A bit elitist of me i know but what the hell and i suppose it's their versatility and capacity to change that kept them ahead of the game.

Favourite non-Stones albums, no particular order:

Bruce Springsteen - The Wild, the Innocent & the E-Street Shuffle
Crowded House - Crowded House
Midnight Oil - Blue Sky Mining
Keith Richards - Main Offender
The Who - Who Are You
Cold Chisel - The Last Wave of Summer
Ian Moss - Matchbook
ZZ Top - Eliminator
Bruce Springsteen - Darkness on the Edge of Town
Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

That's it right now, anyway...

That album sums up my first year of college for me. An album which is what they call a "game-changer."

Justin, Is This It? changed my life: it is the record that defines my late-teens. It is the record that made me asses who I am and how I want to look. Things were never the same again after hearing that record and viewing the Last Nite video.

No. 2, New Boots & Panties - Ian Dury
No. 3, Rockin' the Fillmore - Humble Pie
No. 4, The White Room - The KLF
No. 5, Amused to Death - Roger Waters
No. 6, Cyberpunk - Billy Idol
No. 7, Bush Doctor - Peter Tosh
No. 8, Super Ape - Scratch & The Upsetters
