The best record (singular) ever (full stop)? (2 Viewers)

[P. Littbarski]

jesus, not really sure if i could pick a favourite, or even 3 or 4 favourites - it's an astounding album

'helter skelter' got to be one of the first instances of grunge
'while my guitar gently weeps', 'blackbird' - beautiful
'dear prudence', 'mother nature's son', 'cry baby cry' - not far behind
'rocky racoon', 'piggies' ' . .bungalow bill' - funny and brilliant

spawned how many great covers too?? some faves are though 'long long long' (Low) 'happiness is a warm gun' (The Breeders), 'wild honey pie' (Pixies)

love the rockier kinda stuff to like 'why don't we do it in the road' and 'revolution'

that's only scratching the surface kinda

i love songs like bungalow bill, honey pie, ob la di....my parents were well into the beatles back in the day and I guess the songs that sound like nursery rhymes have always stayed in my head since I was a little kid

on what release do low cover long, long, long ? I'd love to hear it (their cover of fearless by pink floyd is cool and was a nice suprise at the gig in christchurch a couple of years ago)

Without shadow of a doubt the best record EVER!!!!!! is SEA CHANGE, BECK... It's gotta be listened to every day... Allah in spandex demands it.. also recommended to prey with is Van Halen's Van Halen, Isaac Hayes Black Moses and Niggamortice (the Original release title) by the Gravedigggaz... It is a crazy question you pose... entirely subjective and dangerous with the high level of infadels that stain our planet... watch out... May your ass be beautiful ........ALLAHQUANDO!!!

SEIGE - the comp. that came out in last year on lp that collects up their 6 song Drop Dead demo (1984) and the 3 songs from the cleanse the bacteria comp the following year. also my long time favourite WRETCHED - Lotta Per Vivere cd which collects up the Italian bands material from 1982-88 except the first 7" this came out in 1996. (some of the later material on this plus their final gig has also been realised on cd this year).

That's some good records mentioned there. There was another Wretched cd came out last year. It has some of the stuff on the previous cd and the last gig along with some video footage.

I have that Robert Mitchum album. Good for a song or two, but the fun runs out pretty quick. ESG? I'm not having that at all.
