either purple rain or ziggy stardust would be my absolute favorite of all time, though i'm a little burnt out on both of those albums.

Zeppelin's (naturally razz ) Physical Graffiti headbang

It was the first album I ever bought with my own money when I was around 11, and it still holds up perfectly these days. cloud9 Plus, it's a double album, so more amazing music all around. I can still play it over and over again and never get sick of it. I'm constantly finding more little nuances that I never noticed before, and there are just so many layers to it, literally, thanks to Jimmy's studio magic. Yet they were also able to reproduce many of those songs live in concert with just as much power, despite the lack of overdubs of course.

Anyway, this has to be my very favorite and I have it framed on my dining room wall in fact. lol

But there are so many more, yet if I had to choose one album, it would be this one.

ok... ONE of my favourite ever is Kiss "Carnival of souls" - that's not even considered a favourite amongst Kiss fans but I looooove the sound they went with on that album

and I'll list 5 other of my top albums

Purple Rain - some guy named Prince
Rattle and Hum - U2
New Jersey - Bon Jovi
Temptation - The Tea Party
Metallica - Metallica (otherwise known as the black album)

So hard to say...

Could be 'Here My Dear' by Marvin Gaye, or any number of Stevie Wonder albums. 'Songs In The Key Of Life' perhaps?

Mine would have to be The Beatles 'White Album', Prince's 'Sign 'O The Times',The Verve's 'Urban Hymns', Beach Boys 'Pet Sounds' and Jimi Hendrix's 'Are You Experienced'. I've picked five, it's hard to pick one!!!

Hey, hey, mama, said the way you move
Gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove.
Oh, oh, child, way you shake that thing
Gonna make you burn, gonna make you sting.
Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way
Watch your honey drip, can't keap away.

Ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.
Ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.

I gotta roll, can't stand still,
Got a flame in my heart, can't get my fill,
Eyes that shine burning red,
Dreams of you all thru my head.

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.

Hey, baby, oh, baby, pretty baby,
Tell me what you do me now.
(Repeat)

Didn't take too long 'fore I found out
What people mean my down and out.
Spent my money, took my car,
Started tellin' her friends she wants to be a star.
I don't know but I been told
A big legged woman ain't got no soul.

Ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.
Ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.

All I ask for when I pray,
Steady rollin' woman gonna come my way.
Need a woman gonna hold my hand
And tell me no lies, make me a happy man.

'kvetching'?

Dude, I'm English, and me, and I still have to go to my Firefox dictionary search with the quickness to look that one up. Save the highbrow stuff for the Prince: Music and More. neutral

i don't like it, fauxie. i don't.

it's a compulsion, like what predatory foot fetishists or flashers must feel.

it's a means to a very sad, sick, brutal end. sad
