it's very hard to pick but i love these albums so much because they absolutely
feel like albums. not like a bunch of songs, not like a few singles fluffed up
with some filler tracks but like real works of art, start to finish.

i also deliberately chose to stick to fairly recent albums and not let myself
pick any old jazz records (those alone could fill a top 10) or bowie, beatles,
stones, etc etc.

i was born with the wrong sign, in the wrong house, with the wrong ascendancy

1 Bob Dylan - Blonde on Blonde
2 The Fall - Hex Enduction Hour
3 The Fall - Perverted by Language
4 Robert Wyatt - Rock Bottom
5 Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited
6 Can - Future Days
7 Gene Clark - No Other
8 Scud Mountain Boys - Massachusetts

Something like that...John Cale's Paris 1919 used to be my top album, but I've really tired of it in the past few years.

Most economic fallacies derive from the tendency to assume that there is a fixed pie, that one party can gain only at the expense of another.

I love Wire! I'm actually a bigger fan of Pink Flag & 154, but why quibble? All three are stellar.

154 is my 'all is lost' album, and it's great for that. The 15th kind of comes at just the right point in the song sequence.

Pink Flag is fantastic and certainly something the current edition of Wire should harken back to every now and then.
