Aw naw, no' Annoni oan an' aw noo (Tom D.), Thursday, 10 September 2009 11:56 (fourteen years ago) link

72. New Order, Technique.

Millsner, Thursday, 10 September 2009 13:04 (fourteen years ago) link

Am I invisible or something? I already said Foxtrot at 89, so Can is 74 and New Order 73. Jeez.

anagram, Thursday, 10 September 2009 13:07 (fourteen years ago) link

Not invisible just anal.

ColinO, Thursday, 10 September 2009 13:50 (fourteen years ago) link

72. Slint -- Spiderland

Duke, Thursday, 10 September 2009 18:28 (fourteen years ago) link

disagree completely with Stooges Funhouse, by the way. I mean: Dirt, Loose, TV Eye and Down on the Street all on side one!!!

Duke, Thursday, 10 September 2009 18:30 (fourteen years ago) link

71. The Replacements - Tim

65. Stevie Wonder - Talking Book

63. Love- Da Capo

KIDDING.

Comfort Me With Apples (Jon Lewis), Friday, 23 October 2009 21:51 (fourteen years ago) link

Does double albums count? Or forget about "Welcome To The Pleasure Dome" then. :)

Tied Up In Geir (Geir Hongro), Friday, 23 October 2009 21:53 (fourteen years ago) link

I mean, do side 2 on 4 side albums count. :)

Tied Up In Geir (Geir Hongro), Friday, 23 October 2009 21:53 (fourteen years ago) link

OK, I've thought about it: Fair question...

Side 2.

Not side 4.

Mark G, Friday, 23 October 2009 21:56 (fourteen years ago) link

Then..

62. Frankie Goes To Hollywood: Welcome To The Pleasure Dome

Tied Up In Geir (Geir Hongro), Friday, 23 October 2009 21:58 (fourteen years ago) link

Preferring the second side of Fun House is not crazy! There be saxomophone there! Plus what appears normal and rockin' ("1970") descends into young-eatin' insanity ("L.A. Blues").

I mean it's not a bunch of straight up classics all lined up but it is a journey into a black hole made of vomit.

Brad Nelson (BradNelson), Friday, 23 October 2009 22:07 (fourteen years ago) link

61. Genesis - Foxtrot

brontosaur, Friday, 23 October 2009 22:53 (fourteen years ago) link

sigh, yeah I already nommed that at #89

anagram, Friday, 23 October 2009 23:00 (fourteen years ago) link

yeah its at #89. #74 AND #69. It made me laugh, so I thought October should get its very own Foxtrot. You are not invisible. I hope I haven't ruined the thread.

brontosaur, Friday, 23 October 2009 23:09 (fourteen years ago) link

May have been posted a bit too many times (I was the first sinner), but it's more OTM than anything else on the list, so... ;)

Tied Up In Geir (Geir Hongro), Saturday, 24 October 2009 00:20 (fourteen years ago) link

strokes / is this it?

i was just checking on which side "supper's ready" is on foxtrot. it's on side 2. so i can confirm that the album really belongs into this thread.
