Best three, consecutive albums

I'd go The Bends, OK Computer, Kid A. My favorite Radiohead albums are Hail to the Thief and Kid A, but I think Bends and OKC are vastly superior to Amnesiac. I know it's not a leftovers album, but I still don't think it flows as an entire record the way the others do.jimmymelrose said:

For me personally:
Explosions in the Sky:
1) Those who tell the truth shall die, those who tell the truth shall live forever
2) The earth is not a cold dead place
3) The rescue
They did the Friday Night Lights soundtrack in between Earth and Rescue, but I don't count that an album of theirs. You could also have it start at How Strange, Innocence.
But those three are the three best records from my favorite band.1 -
Off the Wall, Thriller and Bad have to be in with a shout surely?6

Brilliant. I love that song. But the Blinking Lights album is the best.JiMMy 85 said:
I love how those second two are two sides of the same coin. One is all about death, loss, depression. The other is possibly the most optimistic, care free collection of songs I’ve ever heard.Karim_myBagheri said:Eels
Beautiful Freak
Electro Shock Blues
Daisies of the Galaxy
From:
"So I know you're going pretty soon
Radiation sore throat got your tongue
Magic markers tattoo you
And show it where to aim
And strangers break their promises
You won't feel any
You won't feel any pain"
to
"I don't care for walkin' downtown
Crazy auto-car gonna mow me down
Look at all the people like cows in a herd
Well, I like
Birds"
It's wasted on Large Addick though.1 -
As for the longest run of albums I'd give 9/10 (or more) to, nobody's beating Birkenhead's finest:
Some Call It Godcore
Voyage To The Bottom Of The Road
Four Lads Who Shook The Wirral
Trouble Over Bridgwater
Cammell Laird Social Club
Achtung Bono
CSI: Ambleside
90 Bisodol (Crimond)1 -
Soft Machine 2, 3 & 41

I have to go with Karim on this. For me Beautiful Freak weakens the other trio too much. Oh god, how amazing is the last track on Blinking Lights. So good that it became a book. E is the musical genius son of a scientific genius.Karim_myBagheri said:

Is 4 really worth it then? Third is one of my all-time favourites and 2 is great as well, but I've never given 4 much of a chance...Oliver Street said:Soft Machine 2, 3 & 40 -

Get it right please. I saw him at the Royal Festival Hall when he got a lookalike of the Queen to sit in the royal box. Agree that book and film are excellent.jimmymelrose said:

Tahnoon just rang me to ask why I hadn't included
Velvet Underground and Nico
White Light/White Heat
Velvet Underground
He wanted to include
Transformer
Berlin
Sally Can't Dance
But I wasn't having that "Yes" I said "I appreciate you paying the wages and outing that crook Southall and all that but Sally Can't Dance isn't Coney Island Baby, mate" which fair play to him he accepted.
He said that when he learnt Lou, his big hero, had played the Valley that was the clincher in him buying the club.
Southall is a big Queen and Phil Collins fan which says it all.0 -

I think its the opposite, the obscure are hider to find, the logarithms always sign post back towards more popular bands. My taste in music can often be quite obscure, but its through listening to a lot of radio stations, playlists, going to festivals and trying out recommendations from friends or people on here, offering band names I haven't heard of.DaveMehmet said:
I think you mean ‘that they can google’Sillybilly said:This is a good thread. These sometimes descend into people listing the most obscure record in their collections but that hasn’t happened so far and there is some really good and familiar stuff coming up.0 -

One Hot Minute and Stadium Arcadium are so different they could have been made by different bands. I think Stadium Arcadium is a masterpiece though, Wet Sand is one of my all time favourite songs.cafcpolo said:

Plans
Narrow Stairs
Codes and Keys
Pure poetry:Love of mine, someday you will die
But I'll be close behind and I'll follow you into the dark
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight, waiting for the hint of a sparkIf heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied
And illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
OR:How I wish you could see the potential
The potential of you and me
It's like a book elegantly bound
But in a language that you can't read just yetYou gotta spend some time, love
You gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you'll find love
I will possess your heart2 -
