    Ash - 1977, Nu-Clear Sounds, Free All Angels. I'd say Ash were more of a singles band, but plenty of quality throughout these albums, even if the middle one is underrated
    I’ve been putting together my favourite 20 songs from my favourite 20 bands on Spotify playlists. I got to Ash and got stuck at 14 so pretty much just had to put Trailer and 1977 tracks on there to make up the numbers! They wrote some seriously forgettable album fillers.

    I know people dont really like him on here, but i do :smiley:
    Ed Sherran:
    +
    x
    Divide

    I wouldn't put his latest one as i feel the older stuff is more original and was listening too longer.

    Also + 1 to Michael Jackson as i used to love his albums, most the stuff on here i haven't even heard off, i love my music too just different era i guess

    That's proper mid-season form. All outstanding albums.
    Agaetis Byrjun, ( ), Takk looks pretty tasty also.

    Michael Jackson might have been a wrong 'un, but he was a musical genius.
    Very (too) often our heroes in the arts have feet of clay.
    Van Morrison or T.S. Eliot or Woody Allen and so on.
    Perhaps the notion there is a price some have to pay for greatness has traction.

    Chuck Berry (served time for both armed robbery and "immoral" behaviour with a 14 year old; settled class action after being caught videoing women in the bathroom of his restaurant).  

    Elvis Presley (relationships with a number of 14 year olds). 

    Frank Sinatra (settled an assault and battery charge). 

    Jerry Lee Lewis (shot his bass player; his seventh marriage (while technically still married to his second wife) was to the 14 year old ex-sister in law of his third wife). 

    Miles Davis (admitted beating his wives). 

    Brian Jones (broke his hand.  On Anita Pallenburg's face). 

    Morrisey ("You can't help but feel that the Chinese are a subspecies"). 

    Ike Turner ("I didn't hit her more than the average guy beats his wife"). 

    Gary Glitter (We all know what he was sentenced to 16 years for...). 

    It seems that a lot of people with musical talent also have violent and despicable tendencies.

    I was talking about artistic genius anyway. Certainly not Gary Glitter and the droning Morrisey for example.

    To killerandflash:

    If we are to consider the Pet Shop Boys, it is criminal to put Behaviour, let alone Very, over the first four albums.

    It might be a matter of opinion, but I would be amazed if more than 2 per cent of people who know their music agree with you.
    I think I’m one of the 2% ( hmm I’ve said that before).  Behaviour in my top 4

    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 spark
    If 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 yet
    You gotta spend some time, love
    You gotta spend some time with me
    And I know that you'll find love
    I will possess your heart
    Thanks for this tip @jimmymelrose, never listened to Death Cab for Cutie before and really enjoying Something About Airplanes at the moment.

    Bruce Springsteen 

    Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J.
    The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle
    Born to Run
    Great choice. Variation on a great Springsteen theme, my favourite three consecutively would be:

    Born To Run
    Darkness On The Edge Of Town
    The River


    All three Springsteen trios posted are valid, I think.

    In conclusion, it would appear that the Boss really is the boss.
    Or for me Darkness, The River, Nebraska 

    or you could go six in a row! 

    Tunnel of Love probably ended the run!

    I love Something About Airplanes, really underrated, 'Line of Best Fit' is incredible - but if you're enjoying that album, I'm sorry to tell you that it's quite a lot different to their later stuff.
    I'm really not sure which are my favourite consecutive Death Cab albums, but I think I'll have to go with
    The Photo Album
    Transatlanticism
    Plans
