theres actually a 15 year period in between those two records and 3 albums (Human Touch and Lucky Town being the others)

And The Seeger Sessions wasnt the album that followed The Rising. 'Devils and Dust' was released in April 2005.

Live albums is a bit of a cheat, mate!

For me :

Dylan - bringing it all back home/Highway 61/Blonde on Blonde/ basement Tapes/john wesley harding

Beatles - Rubber Soul/Revolver/Pepper/Magical Mystery Tour (US only)/White Album/Abbey Road

Bruce - wild the innocent/born to run/darkness/The River/Nebraska

Bowie had an album out almost every year throughout the 70's and up to 1980, with only maybe one or two that were not great.

huh? The London Years is a compilation of 60's singles! whats new about that? LOL 'Steel wheels' was before Flashpoint. Bit of a stretch to include 2 live albums and a compilation as part of a classic quintet!

Skynyrd - Pronounced and Second Helping

"No Anchovies, Please"

OMG Gaz! Totally forgot the incredibly forgettable Devils & Dust! I don't think I've listened to that since the day I bought. Sooooooooooo bad!!

Well Ya-Ya's is a great live album, which I hated for years, but really dig it these days.

The London Years did have some new mixes (Child of the Moon) and songs that were unavailable on CD up to that point...LOL

I looked this up because I knew someone would point it out! LOL London Years came out 14 days after Steel Wheels, so I'm safe to not count that one. LMAO

As for the live album inclusion, I didn't realize it was strictly studio releases. LOL In that case, I guess my personal Golden Age of when I came of age with the Boys is out (

It is what you want it to be!

Devils and Dust is a great album, I play it quite often.

Sorry guys - I love Bruce, but D&D was one baaaaaaaaaaad album. Tom Joad I love, Nebraska I love, but that one just never took off for me.

>> Live albums is a bit of a cheat, mate! <<

why?! Beggars-to-Exile isn't four of a kind, it's a royal straight flush
and i don't know anyone else who's done it

A royal straight flush with the bonus af a Goats Head Soup

I tried to come with a couple, which haven't been mentioned.

Gram Parsons: GP + Grievous Angel
Lou Reed: Transformer + Berlin
Iggy Pop: Lust for Life + The Idiot
Jimi Hendrix: Are You Experienced + Axis: Bold as Love + Electric Ladyland
Grateful Dead: Workingman's Dead + American Beauty

I'm afraid I've once again Left Gazza completely mystified with my Devils & Dust comments.

Couple have already been mentioned already (not including any Stones):

Highway To Hell/ Back In Black
Killer/ School's Out
Van Halen/ Van Halen 2
At Budokan/ Dream Police
Any combo of the first four Zeppelin albums
Scarecrow/ Lonesome Jubilee
Pyromania/ Hysteria
Definitely Maybe/ What's The Story...

Metallica
Ride The Lightning - Master Of Puppets

Rolling Stones - Beggars banquet
Rolling Stones - Let It Bleed
Beatles - Abbey Road
Beatles - Let It Be 1970
David Bowie - The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars
David Bowie - Hunky Dory
Roxy Music - FOR YOUR PLEASURE
Roxy Music - COUNTRY LIFE

__________________________

I don´t think these are mentioned:
The Police- Regatta de blanc - Zenyatta Mondatta
Zappa - Over night sensation - Apostrophe
Genesis - Trick of the tail - Wind and wuthering
Rush - Permanent Waves - Moving picture
Rory Gallagher - Photo finish - Top Priority

I forgot Al Green and Otis - for good reason, though: it's impossible to pick any 2 consecutive records for either of them. You can take any 2 of AG's first 5 or 6 albums and any 2 consecutive Otis albums (after the first one) and they'll stack up with any of the afore-mentioned duos.

>Roxy Music - FOR YOUR PLEASURE
>Roxy Music - COUNTRY LIFE

STRANDED came between those two.

Thanks 'Glam Descendant' now I can't make up my mind so I take them all


Roxy Music - FOR YOUR PLEASURE
Roxy Music - STRANDED
Roxy Music - COUNTRY LIFE

Nico, I think Siren is better than the 3 albums listed above.

GP & Grievous Angel - Gram Parsons
Dreamland & Mighty Rearranger - Robert Plant
Astral Weeks & Moondance - Van Morrison
Any 2 Stones
Any 2 Dylan
Any 2 Beatles
Any 2 Doors

Joke right?


I don't agree on the Doors (Strange days)

Velvet Underground - White light White heat.
Dylan: the 60s and Blood on the tracks- Desire (kinda)

Iggy pop: the Idiot - Lust for life

Bowie: Heroes - Low

What's that supposed to mean, LA?
Dont like SD?

Good choice. SIREN is fine but not in the same league as those 3 in my opinion.

You right 'Glam Descendant' let's "Do The strand"

Id have to say the Who and the Kinks in the same time period are just as good:

the Who-Who Sell Out-Tommy-Live at Leeds (if we're counting live albums)-Who's Next-Quadrophenia (67-73)

The Kinks-Somethin' Else-VILLAGE GREEN-Arthur-Lola Vs. The Powerman-Muswell Hillbillies (67-71).

Scott Walker- Tilt 1995/The Drift 2006.

How about that for being prolific?
