Surely this should be in the Entertainment area of WP?

Anyway...

I shall name specific albums as the artists I like tend to have made a variety of good and bad long players, so it's important to state which ones I like so no-one gets the wrong impression.

1. Ride - Going Blank Again.
2. Catherine Wheel - Happy Days.
3. Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream.
4. Compulsion - Comforter (the double CD version is superb)
5. The Beta Band - Heroes to Zeroes
6. The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion - ACME
7. Reverse - The Jersey Switch.
8. Straw - Shoplifting.
9. Fu Manchu - Daredevil
10. Spirit Caravan - Jug Fulla Sun.

These are all of equal importance to me. I could easily stretch this to a top 20....

11. Portishead - Dummy.
12. Soundgarden - Superunknown
13. Green Day - American Idiot.
14. Nirvana - Nevermind.
15. Stone Temple Pilots - Core.
16. Extreme - Pornograffitti
17. The Wildhearts - Earth vs. The Wildhearts
18. David Ford - I Sincerely Apologise For All The Trouble I've Caused.
19. Rage Against the Machine - Rage Against the Machine
20. Redd Kross - Phaseshifter

Plenty more where those came from.
