Definitely my favorite, but their new album is really climbing its way up.

I'm going to see DMB tomorrow night.....(saturday)
 
Metallica Black Album
Kenny Wayne Shepherd Ledbetter Heights
Lynyrd Skynyrd Gold and Platinum
 
Single CD? I dunno. As a kid, I lived, breathed, and slept Metallica. Probably 85% of the songs I can play on guitar are all Metallica. But if I had to name a favorite today, it would be a combination of three CDs

Slayer - South of Heaven, Seasons in the Abyss, and Reign in Blood. I listen to all three more than any other CD / other music I have. (no, I'm no devil man. They are just very good CDs)

All their other stuff after those three CDs just wasn't really up to snuff with those. They went down hill big time after Dave Lombardo left the band. He is back now and their newest CD is much better than the other stuff, but it's still nowhere near the class of those three.
 
I can't just name one - so here's my top five in no particular order.

Abbey Road - The Beatles
Lateralus - Tool
Innocence and Instinct - Red
The Black Parade - My Chemical Romance
A Beautiful Lie - 30 Seconds to Mars
 
Springsteen and the E Street Band....Darkness on the Edge of Town.

Van Halen.....For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge.......i know sacrilage....

Everytime I read these types of threads I cant narrow down my favorite bands....springsteen and VH always stick out but I like a ton more.....
 
Ok, i just couldn't settle on one or even a couple so, in no particular order....


Khaled Hafla-Khaled
Fela Kuti-Shakara/London Scene
Ali Farka Toure- The Source
Black Crowes-Shake Your Money Maker
Bob Marley-Exodus

Louis Armstrong in Concert- What a Wonderful World
Miles Davis- Birth of The Cool

Just an absolutely amazing album, that I still listen to with great regularity. If I had to pick just one record, that'd be it.

Back in the old days, Depeche Mode -- 101 would have been a strong contender as well, but that's more of a "greatest hits" which I suppose doesn't count, and I've kind of moved away from DM over the years.

If you are counting greatest hits albums, then Journey's Greatest Hits is one of the two albums (along with Disintegration) I'd take on a desert island with me.

Just get the double Slayer CD Decade of Aggression...it pretty much has all of the best songs from those three slayer CDs you talked about.

Disintegration was an awesome album. I haven't heard it in years though. During the same time 'The Queen is Dead' by The Smiths was also great.

Have you ever done the Wizars of Oz thing?

It's kind of cool.

Hippy!

Very, very good choice.



I'm not sure how people can choose just one. There is just no way I could...but I'm listening to "Mommy's Little Monster" by Social Distortion right now, so I'll just go with that.
