Of The Wall. "A rock-opera rendering of the Stanley Baxter Show". Sublime.

[statzuno]

I agree with the Radiohead stuff.
Most of it, really. Never understood why so many people thought they were the best thing ever.

[lhart]

This is why I love music and your channel. There's always a something fascinating to hear and talk about.

[RJS]

You could add just about any Bruce Springsteen album to this list.

[MaxSpender]

I never got the appeal of Kid A until I ended up spending a lonely evening in by myself in a hotel bedroom & decided to listen to it as I sat by the window, watching the world go by. It just clicked for me as I observed the people on the street below & the cars going past. They all seemed to be moving in time with the music.

Dire Straits: Walk of Life…including that irritating “ woo hoo “ your comments are spot on with that track.
Great tee shirt !

[PianoVampire]

Interesting - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road is by far my favourite Elton John album, especially the first few songs on side two

[dkoukol]

I'm a Blake's 7 fan in America and laughed out loud at your little dig there! Your sense of humor is one of the delights of your channel!

[cosmickidd]

To be honest there are loads of tracks that I love from different bands, but rarely do I like the whole album.

[harrynewiss]

The wall I have always found tedious too.

[craigbalcom]

I'm from L.A. and really loved the first few Eagles albums. It wasn't their departure from country rock and the lack of those wonderful harmonies it was the completely insipid lyrics that turned me off Hotel California. Rich entitled f'd up people complaining about the other rich entitled f'd up people who moved there after them and ruined it. Laughably clueless and pretentious... and way overplayed. Being stuck on the freeway and late for a real job while hearing Life In The Fast Lane on every station was maddening.

All that this has proved is that people have different music tastes - and I say thank God for that.
Agree with some of the choices, disagree with others - and there is nothing wrong with the that.

[EclecticInstinct]

Can't fault your choices. Pretty much spot on.

[rajindersjutlla]

Sorry guys I love The Wall. I love Animals, but The Wall it's sheer breadth of musical ideas are a delight to listen to.

[Flibbybibby]

The Dark Side Of The Moon is certainly on my list.

[josephbennett]

Great T-shirt, Barry - one of the very BEST albums of all time! I agree with nearly all of your choices here, especially Billy Joel's 'An Innocent Man', and your sentiments regarding him. I grew up listening to 'Turnstiles', 'The Stranger', '52nd Street' and 'Glass Houses' on repeat, but no-one else seemed to know who I was talking about. Then 'Uptown Girl' was released and suddenly everyone was a fan (but still didn't know his older, better material). An album that I feel I should like, but don't, is Steve Hackett's 'Voyage of the Acolyte'. I try to, but just can't get into it. Maybe I should try again. Same goes for King Crimson's 'In the Court of the Crimson King'. Apart from 'Epitaph', which is sublime, it doesn't do much for me.

Ten albums I should love but I hate:
10) Eagles /ST
9) Eagles /Desperado
8) Eagles / On the Border
7) Eagles / One of These Nights
6) Eagles / Hotel California
5) Eagles / The Long Run
4) Eagles / Long Road Out of Eden
3) Don Henley / Building the Perfect Beast
2) Don Henley / End of Innocence
1) Glenn Frey / the aptly titled No Fun Allowed

[Falconryder]

I usually agree with you more, but you named several albums I really like this time. Idea; I wonder if you have material to do "ten albums I shouldn't love, but do."

[klavierhaltern]

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Legendary and very important for its time but I rather listen to Revolver or the White Album.

[scottwaldon]

Pretty spot on but cannot agree with Yellow Brick Road and Graceland.
