Merle Haggard's LP Same Train... is a superb double chock with Jimmie Rodgers songs in a Hag stylee. Bear Family reissued it on CD so it's available for everyone to enjoy!!!

Genesis' The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway was my nomination, too.

there's so many to choose from, it could be Freak Out! by the Mothers of Invention, Music to Eat by HGB... but there's only one which EVERYBODY at school was talking about after the xmas break in 198thingy... and the general consensus was that this was a classic album... and it may as well have been their only album.

ladies and gentlemen, i give you....

I was about to say that!

great minds and all that.

It contains my favourite version of Do You Know The Way To San Jose?... Their version of Born to Run pi$$es all over Springstien's original... the Welcome To The Pleasure Dome side is 20 minutes of over produced bliss.

I wonder how many of us kids would have received it for xmas that year if our parents had, prior to purchase, opened the gate-fold sleeve and seen the 'pleasure dome' in all its phallic glory?!?!?!?!

Slightly off-topic....sorry. But in my opinion, the best triple album must be Grateful Dead Europe 72

I might be out of step but I like this live one bestest, in my limited GD experience.
