Best Stoner Albums of All Time?

I vote Beck's "Odelay" as the BEST STONER ALBUM OF ALL TIME!!

Just been revisited old Beck like Mutations too, which is incidentally my favourite Beck album ever and I pulled out Odelay!

The best album to do some of the below to, ever!

weed

how about you?

a bag of weed, my bloody valentine's loveless and a really good set of headphones - a magical combination.

Well if you broaden the definition of stoner album to include albums that were inspired or capture the feeling of drug use (expand it to encompass drugs other than cannabis that is), the ULTIMATE stoner album is There's A riot Goin On by Sly & the Family stone. Though it's a pet peeve of mine when people attribute any creative or weird ideas to drugs, particularly in rock, I can say unequivocally that album would not have the unique, frightening, mind-altering vibe it has if sly hadn't become a total addict.

Very true - every track, every groove on that album practically screams "junky!", and, twisted though this might be, it's a more memorable album for it,

but this is the thread to do same, non?)
posture your mandables towards the sky
and oscilate them in an apathetic manner

throw your hands in the air and wave 'em like you just don't care

I don't know what these cats are about, i've just been waiting for an opportunity to use their name.
They are listed on the www.StonerRock.com site.
(An acquaintance told me they were considered Stoner Rock.)

Any group that writes a tune called The Gibbetted Captain Kid can't be all bad.

confuse (...or can they?)

hmm... good topic.

some of my favorites:

AMNESIAC - Radiohead. Actually, I usually listen to a compilation I made of my favorite Amnesiac/Kid A-era tracks

RUSH!!! Favorites probably Moving Pictures, Signals, and my compilations.

YOSHIMI - Flaming Lips

Choirgirl and Pele - Tori Amos

The Dreaming or HOL - Kate Bush

Bowie, Bowie, and more Bowie... Low, Lodger, Station to Station... diamond dogs... just about anything that wasn't released in the 80's.

Neil Young... usually Tonight's the Night, or a compilation i've made.

I'm big on "stoner compilations", LOL. I make mix CDs for that very purpose smile
