The Supernatural…an unforgettable piece of music.
Some classic albums listed already.
An impossible choice…
Alice Cooper - Schools Out
David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust
Carole King - Tapestry
CSNY - Déja Vu
Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells
Uriah Heep - Demons and Wizards
The Beatles - Get Back
Stephen Stills - Manasass
Neil Young - Harvest
The Beatles - Sgt Peppers
Tubular Bells has got to be on that list … all of the album is original and has stood the test of time! Frampton Comes Alive … that’s how a live album should be done. Defo Sgt Pepper. Bowie - I’m thinking Ziggy Stardust will remain as the iconic album. Dark Side Of The Moon - Pink Floyd. There’s plenty more … Beach Boys Pet Sounds was changing music as well.

Just been looking at the top 100 selling albums list. Very few of our choices appear so far. Probably goes to show how personal these things are…

There are loads more I could add, and 10 is so few, but here goes…
Stone Roses - Stone Roses
Pink Floyd - Dark side of the Moon
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Damn the Torpedos
The Cars - The Cars
T-Rex - Electric Warrior
David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust
Joni Mitchelle - Clouds
Julie London - Julie is her Name
Nat King Cole - Unforgettable
Miles Davis - A Kind of Blue
That’s because we obviously don’t like/think much of country/rap music and M. Jackson, and haven’t included “greatest hits” type albums.
Music is a very personal thing… . I think we have had a great selection posted here… and there are bound to be more just waiting to be rediscovered…
Country/Rap and M Jackson will soon appear on someone’s list… and why not ???
Can’t disagree with that…
Had it have been a top 20 Album list I would have included a Nanci Griffiths album. The one artist I have kept from my Country days of the early 90’s.
Dark Side of the Moon, surely ?
Many years ago my French partner suggested we listen to music (sorry no Classical here) from 1963 to present day (several hundred albums) and make a list of the albums that we considered the best from each group. By voting seperately and tallying the points we came up with a list of the best albums for those years (419).
In no order (and they change a lot) these are my 10 current favourites
Sixx AM - This is gonna hurt
Aerosmith - Toys in the Attic
Alice Cooper - Million Dollar Babies
Pearl Jam - Ten
Pink Floyd - Dark side of the Moon
Led Zepplin - 1V
Santana - Supernatural
The Sones - Sticky Fingers
Ten Years After - Ssssh
AC/DC - Highway to Hell
I thought Billion dollar babies was a much better album 
Ha ha Mark, I wondered who was going to spot that mistake ! You must be richer than me 
Loving everyone’s lists. Great post.
Most people who know me think I have terrible taste in music and I was always ridiculed as a teenager (in the 1980s) for being a huge fan of Barry Manilow. Anyway, here’s my favourites although with some it’s difficult to choose particular albums.
Barry Manilow - choose any album, all of them are wonderful.
The Carpenters - again, chose any album. Karen Carpenter’s voice was sublime.
Bee Gees - Saturday Night Fever - iconic music, can’t believe no-one else has chosen them.
Bee Gees - Their Greatest Hits The Record - the album that hubby and I chose to listen to together most often.
Spice Girls - Spice - can’t beat a bit of girl power.
Elvis Presley - Always on my Mind The Ultimate Love Songs Collection - again, first time he’s been mentioned. Such a beautiful voice.
Bridget Jones Diary Soundtrack - I know, I know but this is my favourite film and I adore this collection of songs.
Phil Collins - Hits - what can I say?, most of you probably howling by now!!
Kylie Minogue - Light Years - the comeback abum that included Spinning Around and those gold hotpants! Love Kylie, an inspiration for me.
Robbie Williams - once again I can’t chose just the one.
Brilliant selection Mandy, closest I’ve got with any of them are early Genesis and Kylies duo with Nick Cave
