CL's Favourite Albums. QF3: Revolver vs The Dark Side of the Moon
Comments

Love Stevie and Marvin! Yes, all of the finalists sit firmly within the rock/folk bracket, as those tend to be the genres that have the albums that the majority of contributors prefer. That might have something to do with the background of a lot of posters, which is fine as it's 'CL's Favourite Albums'. The closest was Miles Davis' Kind of Blue with two votes (another album I own and listen to regularly).LennyLowrent said:

@Addick in SW16 - do you have the list of quarter finalists?, and i'll listen to them on my drive.The_President said:Whilst downloading Spotify in readiness for my loooong drive this weekend, i thought i'd listen to Floyds Animals. Another timeless piece - its only Floyd who could make Dog and Pig noises along with drunk Irish security guards sound musically brilliant.
Blood on the Tracks - Bob Dylan
Blue - Joni Mitchell
Bridge Over Troubled Water - Simon & Garfunkel
Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd
Definitely Maybe - Oasis
Nevermind - Nirvana
Revolver - The Beatles
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles
No Marvin Gaye's 'What's Going On'
No Stevie Wonder's 'innervisions' or 'songs in the key of life, Prince 'Sign o' the times'
Ninna Simone (any of them)
Or even little Michael..?
Innervisions for me...1 -
Revolver - I'm not a PF fan post Syd.2

Without the Doors that list is incomplete for me. But Blood on the tracks is way the best.Addick in SW16 said:

If you want to call it that, fine. I have a lot of respect for many of your views on football and otherwise, HI - we agree on a lot - but whenever you disagree with someone, you absolutely can't resist making it a bit personal. It's like a compulsion. And it's mean; petty; and annoying.Henry Irving said:

Your comment about my age was clearly intended as a very veiled, very roundabout dig (i.e. I'm younger and therefore should know my place, or something), and because I like jazz I am therefore a pretentious wanker/musical masturbator/know-it-all, too.
You think you are always right and immediately resort to the ad hominem whenever someone disagrees with you. It's tiring.2 -

Don't judge people by your own behaviour. You're still upset that I don't like jazz so you imagined that I hadn't listened to all the albums. When I pointed out that not only had I heard them but I'd already commented on them you got upset and had another trantrum.PaddyP17 said:

Revolver my favourite Beatles Album (only just over Sgt Peppers) and Dark Side of the Moon my favourite Pink Floyd Album (just over Wish You were here).
But overall - think I've got to go with Dark Side of the Moon.0 -
