I saw a post on IGN for people to say their favorite album of all time and I think I should move it here too.
Mine is a 5 way tie, between Pet Sounds (Beach Boys ), Sgt. Pepper (The Beatles, duh), How The West Won (Led Zeppelin), A Quick One (The Who) and Exile on Main St. (Rolling Stones).

I'm a young guy and I don't have money to buy all the albums I would like! Or room on my iPod to listen to them.

Two of my top ten!
(Well, more like 1 1/2, actually: I prefer …& Nico and White Light/White Heat)

The VU & Nico is reeeally good too. The only ones I actually own, though, are Loaded and The Velvet Underground .

Offline Everyone on this forum has such good taste in music. But then, what would you expect? This is a Beatles forum, after all
EDIT: Oh yeah, I forgot to post my list. Uh, my top 5 not Beatles related albums, in no particular order:
Boston by, uh, Boston
Doolittle by The Pixies
Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin
Tommy by The Who
Absolution by Muse
I tried to mix it up a bit and not include more than one album by an artist. Honourable mentions (if best of albums can be counted):
Songs for the Deaf by Queens of the Stone Age
Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
The Sound of the Smiths by The Smiths
Greatest Hits… and More by Reel Big Fish

Gahhh Doolittle . “Hey” is my jam. Your taste = yes.
Except for Muse. Are they really that good? I've never gotten around to hearing them…

Offline They are pretty good, but whatever you do, don't listen to The Resistance. It has a few good songs, but it's mostly crap.
Absolution is a good place to start, especially Hysteria.

Offline My favorite album of all time is “Remain in Light” by Talking Heads. I've never compiled a Top 10 or even a Top 5 beyond that. I probably would stick the collected works of The Beatles in my second spot. But four more that I love are “My Aim Is True” by Elvis Costello, “Lifes Rich Pageant” by R.E.M., “London Calling” by The Clash and “Big World” by Joe Jackson.

My friend keeps nagging me about Owsley!! They're like “GAAHH listen to 'Be With You'” 
Guess I need to check it out, then.
Mithveaen, I checked out “Viento” and liked it a lot! 
…Lots of children of the 80s here, I presume?

If I seem to act unkind, it's only me, it's not my mind that is confusing things.
