Wow, that's a toughie for me.
I had to wonder and ponder if that means albums that I play frequently or rather albums I rate as highly crafted classics.
What jumps out at me right now would be the Who's Who's Next? Another would be Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon
-
Tom Petty--Wildflowers
Neil Young--After The Goldrush
The Killers--Sam's Town
In no particular order.
-
I could never answer really answer this...It would have to be by genre. I worked in a records store for a bunch of years before deciding to jump back into screen printing.
I will say the three top albums played in the shop as of late has been:
Demon Fuzz - Afreaka!
Menahan Street Band - S/T
El Micheles Affair - Enter the 36th chamber.
Mixed in with lots of Black Sabbath and Doom metal.
I try to keep it mellow when printing.
-
Tom Petty--Wildflowers
Neil Young--After The Goldrush
The Killers--Sam's Town
In no particular order.
This reminds me that "on the beach" by neil young has also been getting heavy play

I am a midwesterner at heart. Born in MN and raised in the Lutheran Church, don't chya know. I do like some southern rock as well. What's interesting about After The Goldrush is it's listed as a lot of musicians most influential album.

Can you even get away with a name like ISIS nowadays? Just think how many tweets and emails and phone calls from fans must get flagged!

Ha yeah would definitely be a pretty bad band name these days. They split up in 2010 though, long before the terrorist group was making headlines. They do still sell merch, although the current stuff is more focused on imagery and album names without the band name on there. I had to retire a couple Isis shirts and a hoodie a few years back just so I didn't get weird looks.
I remember when someone was mailing anthrax a while back and a bunch of people started getting on Anthrax the band's case about it as if they had named themselves that to generate hype from the situation. Meanwhile they'd been around since 1981.

I'm surprised how many of you guys are into TOOL! been waiting over 10 years for a new album. Only band that could pull that off and still have fan retention. funny, you listen to any one of their albums a few hundred times and you can still pick up things you never heard before. and then try learning to play some tunes and learn even more.
I'm going to listen to each and every one of these albums. see if I can broaden my horizons a bit. does it djent? I'm in!
Dave, no worries, Bob Denver's greatest hits isn't for everyone.
-
Don't forget Slim Whitman
-
Thanks to everyone - lots of great albums mentioned that I had forgotten -new playlist set for a whiles....
-
Steely Dan - pick any three
-
What about work out music? Music to run on?

Just shows you what a diverse bunch we are.
This boy,having grown up with many of the folks who made the soundtrack of "The Summer of Love", doesn't recognize one band on that list! But, you wanna talk the Dead, or Airplane, or Quicksilver, or Big Brother, Carlos or Country Joe, or even the Tower of Power, let's go!

Never saw this one before; just about impossible, but Electric Ladyland, Andres Segovia Plays Bach, (I played them on a turntable until they didn't work anymore, bought them on cassette, and then cd's). After that there's just too many...

Just recently, when he came to pick up his shirts, a client also brought a gift of a vinyl copy of Moondance after noticing some boxes of real records stacked in my reception area.

UGK-Riding Dirty
Dr. Dre-The Chronic
Snoop-Doggystyle
I listen to literally everything but new pop country and new pop music. I pretty much listen to Joe Rogan and Joey Diaz podcast anymore.
To quote a great friend of Mine "In 1986 Appetite for Destruction came out and changed my life....in 1992 The Chronic came out and changed my life..."

Tool is still touring. They will be at the Gorge in Washington this June!
They are still "working" on an album.... when the mood strikes them.
I dont have favorite albums - I have favorite bands. Which means I love 90% of the stuff they put out.
Tool (All things Maynard really)
Depeche Mode
Linkin Park
Listening to a lot of electronica lately.

I didn't know I had so many Heshers as colleagues.
