What album really blew your mind and still stands out....
I was rumaging through my cd's today and playing a bit of this and a bit of that. I picked up Pink Floyd/The Final Cut. I remember listening to this on cassette on a walkman in the tenth grade. The lights were off in the room and I closed my eyes. I just couldn't believe what I heard. Sounds and voices from all directions, the music seemed so alive. It still is my favorite musical memory, I haven't thought of music the same since.
I do have a great memory of The Cure's Why Can't I Be You and a cute little German gal, but for different reasons

My best music listening experiences are:
The first time I heard Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon on CD. I was in 10'th grade and it absolutely blew my mind.... also it was one of the first times I smoked weed. The first time I heard a Brazilian recording: Gilberto Gil & Jorge Ben "Gil & Jorge". This is a jam session where these two guys recorded what came out in that moment - it's probably one of the loosest, most spontaneous records around. It doesn't sound perfect, but that is EXACTLY the great thing about it, you can FEEL how spontaneous it is. Other moents: Portishead "Dummy"... also under the "effects" in a dark room...sounds coming from everywhere, the spooky melancholic atmoshpere it creates.... Chris |

Probably Nirvana Smells like teen spirit, because when it came out it was so different from all the music we listened to thru the 80's.

I really enjoyed Moving Pictures from Rush and Never Surrender from Triumph. I like Tracy Chapmans self titled debut album and Gordon from the BareNaked Ladies.

Pick a catagory;
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon and Steve Miller - Fly Like an Eagle Pat Metheny - Offramp and Larry Carlton - Last Night Andrea Bocelli, Diana Krall, Frank Sinatra to many to many to many I can't pick just one. But if there was only one album I would be under house arrest with - Don't Laugh - Tears for Fears - Tears Roll Down (greatest hits 82-92) not just one or two great songs, I can listen to the whole thing over and over. OK, I have many different levels, some rock, some don't, some good and some bad.

Sing with me! Shout Shout Let it all out These are things I can do without Come On I'm talking to you Come on In violent times You shouldn't have to sell your soul In black and white They really really ought to know Those one track minds That took you for a working boy Kiss them goodbye You shouldn't have to jump for joy Shout They gave you life And in return you gave them them hell As cold as ice I hope we live to tell the tale Shout And when you've taken down your guard If I could change your mind I'd really love to break your heart Shout

Quote:
Robin Trower - Bridge of Sighs. When I first heard this in it's entirety I was completely awstruck. Damn this rocked. What an amazing album I thought. Still amazing to me. And Grumpy, Victums of the Fury is killer also. I have the LP. You like In City Dreams? I got that LP also. Not bad but not great.
