02. Dangerous - Michael Jackson
03. Affirmation - Savage Garden
04. The Velvet Rope - Janet Jackson

06. Ladies and Gentlemen: The Best Of - George Michael
07. OK Computer - Radiohead
08. Greatest Hits - Bjork
09. One - Soulvation (bought it yesterday and love it)
10. Jagged Little Pill - Alanis Morissette

Okay, this is never the same list:

1. Prince -- Sign O' The Times
2. Stevie Wonder -- Talking Book
3. Digable Planets -- Blowout Comb
4. Horace Silver Trio -- Blue Note
5. Prince & The Revolution -- Parade

9. Vince Guaraldi Trio -- A Charlie Brown Christmas
10. The Police -- Regatta D'Blanc/Ghost In The Machine (tie)

Ten fave albums in no particular order:

Oh One artist per album. In that case, I'm gonna take out "Sign O' the Times" (even though I'll regret it later; it's a fuckin' classic, for pete's sake) and put in "Hatful of Hollow" by The Smiths.

I'm seeing a lot of garbage up here. There are also some pleasant surprises though. Like Digable Planets - Blowout Comb. Stone Roses, Radiohead - The Bends (instead of OK Computer) the clash

I'm just curious, garnis. Tell me which albums we selected you think are garbage.

If you say Gang of Four..., I know where you live

Terence Trent D'arby

Alanis Morissette

Janet Jackson

Instead of labelling this stuff as garbage, wouldn't it just be more fair to say that you don't care for a lot R&B? I mean, judging from your list, I sense you're all about indie alt-rock stuff that I could care less about.

I don't mean to argue with you, that's just how I see it.

that is a classic! I can't believe I forgot it!
