Recommended Posts

I can't limit my choice to 10, when it comes to albums/CD's.

 

However, if you could only have 20 albums, and I will include Greatest Hits albums, what would they be ?

 

1. Revolver

2. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

3. The Magical Mystery Tour

4. The Beatles Blue Album

5. The Very Best Of Badfinger

6. Boston

7. Van Halen I

8-9. Queen's Greatest Hits I & II

10. The Doors

11. E5C4PE

12. Slippery When Wet

13. The Very Best: Only The Beginning (Chicago)

14. Jimi Hendrix Experience: Smash Hits

15. The Best Of The Animals

16. .38 Special Flashback

17. Diana Ross & The Supremes #1's

18. The Guess Who Greatest Hits

19. The Anthology of Bread

20. Neil Diamond: In My Lifetime

 

I don't think I could live without any of them. It's just my take.

I understand Chepatrick, but I would have to list 400 albums or more. But, I'll re-list, since you think it's cheating.

Cheaptrick, not a problem.

 

I read things figuratively and literally. I see your point, and in essence it is cheating. There are some albums that I skip songs on. There are many albumns that I love, but wonder what the artist is trying to convey with some songs, and I skip them.
