  • Sparks & Franz Ferdinand = FFS 

    https://youtu.be/rCxLpte5loY
  • I reckon that FFS album is probably the best collaboration ever (as well as the most cleverly titled). I like that you can clearly hear who both the bands are and yet it hangs together as a whole. It's funny and clever and great musically. Who said, collaborations don't work?

  • Little Feat…..Feats Don’t Fail Me Now.
  • She wants revenge - Album: She wants revenge 

    Not the greatest album in the world, but if you like unique atmospheric songs...dance, metal

    Then you will like it 
  • The Band- The Band
  • Donuts - J Dilla

    Madvilliany - MF Doom/Madlib

    Which probably explains why I have two Dilla tattoos and a Madlib tattoo.

    Reminds me that Stage Fright is an incredibly solid album with no weak tracks.

    "Rattlesnakes" which, in addition to the title track, had the likes of "Perfect Skin", "Forest Fire" and "Are You Ready To Be Heartbroken?" Excellent album but then I am a big fan of Lloyd Cole including post the Commotions

  • I think the OP was talking about those very rare albums where you just go ‘wow’ to every track. This is become a bit of a list of ‘albums I really like’, which isn’t quite the same. 
  • Carole King’s Tapestry has already been mentioned, but it’s definitely up there. 
    It was her second studio album, and went 14x platinum selling over 30 million copies worldwide. 
    It sounds like a greatest hits album, but it actually wasn’t. 
    At the time it came out I found a bit MOR, but appreciated it later in life.

    Great album. Mentioned at the time seeing her on Jools Holland - she's soon to be 81 but was 67 at the time and the voice was as good as ever. As for "greatest hits", there wouldn't be an album big enough to hold all the hits she's written, many jointly with Gerry Goffin, including ones that don't even sound like Carole King compositions such as "The Loco Motion" (Little Eva et al), "I'm Into Something Good" (Herman's Hermits), "Don't Bring Me Down" (the song made famous by The Animals as opposed to the ELO song written by Jeff Lynne) and "The Porpoise Song" (The Monkees). Her legacy will live on forever.
