As some good songs on that album, slated cos it wasn't "baggy!"
Shudder!
Nice choices/ cannot fault any of those choices. Very good. You can keep compiling top 10 lists/ in fact I'd urge C4 to have you do research for them.Quote:

Bob Dylan - Blonde on Blonde
John Lennon - Imagine
Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells
Led Zeppelin - Led Zep II
Neil Young - Harvest
Queen - A Night at the Opera

Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
Van Morrison - Moondance
Agreed. Not in my top 10, but both are class. Aw, why can't we do a top 100?Quote:

Great idea about the Top 100 maybe it should be a poll? :pQuote:
