Nuff Said 5,108 Posted February 19, 2017 I have to say I don''t think the original question works for me. It would make more sense to ask about specific albums - Dark Side of the Moon is one of my top three albums, but I can''t stand the fey, mannered sh*te Floyd did early in their career, and the most recent stuff is just dull and turgid. Similar with Kind of Blue by Miles Davis - a favourite but that doesn''t mean I listen to much else by him.I had a look for an old thread asking exactly that - top ten albums - that Evil Monkey started (where did he go?) which even compiled them into an overall chart, but it seems to have disappeared sadly.
