This is way too hard.
My top five would be, roughly:
Cardiacs - Sing To God
Van Der Graaf Generator - Pawn Hearts
Ulver - Blood Inside
Mansun - Six
North Sea Radio Orchestra - s/t
The rest? I can't order them. I've also left quite a lot of things out.
Talk Talk - Spirit Of Eden
Wire - Send
The Fall - Levitate
Richard Dawson - Nothing Important
Neurosis - Through Silver In Blood
Autechre - Draft 7.30
Coil - Musick To Play In The Dark
Brian Eno - Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy)
Jute Gyte - Ressentiment
El-P - I'll Sleep When You're Dead
The Fiery Furnaces - Blueberry Boat
Lapsus Linguae - You Got Me Fraiche
The Cure - Pornography
Foetus - Hole1 -
If there was the option to, once every three or four months, dump ten LOLs on a post, this would be that postSwisdom said:I have such an eclectic taste I rarely buy albums as I get bored. Only really got a couple of albums I repeat
Taylor Swift - Red
Ed Sheeran - + or X (I think this guy is the dogs danglies)
Anything by Linkin Park
Aside from that it's compilations or my playlist "Steve's Eclectic Mix" on spotify5 -
And today's change:bobmunro said:1. Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd
2. Highway 61 Revisited - Bob Dylan
3. In the Court of the Crimson King - King Crimson
4. Ogden's Nut Gone Flake - Small Faces
5. At Filmore East - The Allman Brothers Band
It will change tomorrow!!
The Wall - Pink Floyd
Revolver - The Beatles
Music from Big Pink - The Band
Dirt Farmer - Levon Helm
Rrakala - Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu
Drive time this morning also included 'Frampton Comes Alive' - Peter Frampton and Desire - Bob Dylan.
As others have said, pretty much impossible to list just five. I could easily list the vast majority of The Rolling Stones studio albums and some live albums as well. Almost everything The Who have done and same with The Kinks and Small Faces.

That album is excellent, his versions of Nolan Porter's If I Could Only Be Sure and Rose Royce's Wishing On A Star stand out for me.hawksmoor said:Of all the Weller albums I could've chosen, I must admit Studio 150 wouldn't have been among them, although his version of Early Morning Rain is very, very good.
