The greatest album ever

[anna karina]

what would you say is the greatest album ever ever
i think i have come to the conclusion that slint's spiderland can have this title as far as i am concerned. it is unbelievably perfect, and proved to be so so important to music after its release for bands of a similar ilk

so what is the greatest of all :rolleyes:

[mabrymusic]

wow, slint's spiderland is a pretty impressive choice....

for me...i'm probably torn---either Jeff Buckley's "Grace", The Smiths "The Queen is Dead", or The Beatles "Revolver"....there's just too much great stuff out there for different reasons

[JeTmAn]

for me in my time, i think linkin park - meteora, i think i can listen to just about every single song on their and i like it.... it also was the cd i listened to most in my growing years....

[Rockstar22]

Reel Big Fish - Our Live Album is Better Than Your Live Album!!

Reel Big Fish is an amazing ska band, and even with all of the energy in their songs, when they play live, they're off the charts. They always use the same skits, and almost word for word the same dialog, but still, it's an awesome CD.

[nas1]

Illmatic and Blueprint

[Hippopotamus]

Giant Panda - Fly School Reunion
Blue Scholars - Bayani
Speech - Spiritual People

Pearl Jam - Vs. is probs my fave album of all time due to the fact i used to listen to it as a child (stealing my brother's copy haha) and still love it to this day!

i woulnd't necessarily say it is the greatest album ever though, just my favourite :) it's quite weird that i find this album one of my favourites even though i'm majorly a hip hop head and 99% of my musical collection consists of hip hop.

but they are my "favorites"


guster - lost and gone forever.
pink floyd - dark side of the moon
MewithoutYou- catch for us the foxes
Brand New - Deja Entendu
Blink 182 - Blink 182
and

[mrstrange]

Here are some of my favorites off the top of my head.

The Beatles - Rubber Soul and Revolver
Gang Of Four - Entertainment
Joy Division - Unknown Pleasure, Closer
The Clash - 1st, London Calling and Sandinista

there was a lot of people who laid down foundations and blueprints a lot longer beforee any of those guys! Kool G Rap, Rakim, Percee P, Slick Rick any of the juice crew, could go on forever mind..

[Il-Problemo]

I think its impossible to decide on one definitive album to be labelled the greatest ever. I cant do it anyway.

[kip0130]

Definately Rakim. I couldnt think of any albums by him that really set the bar. but Rakims new Stuff is killing all the new rappers.

[kenz]

its his old stuff that hes best known for^^

personally i gotta second the juice crew, there the best hip hop group, tho i dont think they released much if anythin as a group. i use to listen to a lot of shan & BDK kool g mast ace of course too

[itzrasaqboy]

Ugk-ugk!

[mrnicksta]

Definately Rakim. I couldnt think of any albums by him that really set the bar. but Rakims new Stuff is killing all the new rappers.

what?! although i don't remember at the time, i know enough to know that the eric b & rakim 1987 album, "paid in full" set the bar for a lot of things - including complex rhyme patterns! bloody good album too!
