Your favourite music albums....

[rugby bloke]

A lot of them have already been covered, but I'm going to have to put a mention in for:

 

[GrumpyGregry]

I have to pick only one? Not possible. My fave all time album depends on what mood I'm in at any given moment.

 

[palinurus]

Pharaoh Sanders' 'Izipho Zam'

Blew my mind on the first listen, and reliably does so on repeat listens too.

No, the thread title is a plural....

Ooh spooky.... one of my favourites as well.

I'm getting worried. That's twice in the same week that we've almost agreed on something!

This is an album I've gone back to, time and again, ever since it was first released. Pure classic.

That is definitely a contender for my favourite album ever.... I got to see Arthur Lee do the whole thing about 10 years ago now, which was amazing. A unique man and much missed.

The album I've been playing the most over the last couple of years is a compilation by Πυξ Λαξ, a folk rock group from Athens. I spend a lot of time in Cyprus and sing quite a few of the tracks from the album at karaoke there.

Surprised you didn't make that connection when we met in Cambridge. Mind you. I was in disguise: I had crew cut.

Well that's Jerry Reed who played on a couple tracks on a '67 session.

At the time I thought Fools Gold was rather good and being aware of all the orgasmic reaction in the music press (actually, thinking about it now, that should have set the alarm bells ringing) to the debut album I went out and bought it. I foolishly didn't check the track listing at time of purchase so didn't get Fools Gold. Nonetheless I gave the album a spin, thought that's shite, gave it another spin or two over the next couple of days just to check, and I was right first time. I gave it away to a bloke I worked with.

I was just sharing the info to a wider audience ....

Sea Change by Beck, strangely enough. I don't like any of his other stuff very much, but I first heard the album in a small empty café in Amsterdam fifteen years ago. The beautiful, sad girl behind the counter played it again and again. I just find it a quite good offering about lost love and regrets.
It isn't exactly disco material.

Try Morning Phase, a laid back, reflective affair.

Time for a bit of my favourite hippy band.
