"Long you live and high you fly, and smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry, and all you touch and all you see is all your life will ever be."
Deserves its spot as top rated album on this site; it was my #1 for a long time, but I listened to it so much it lost some of its value. There's not a lot to say about it that hasn't already been said.
Favourite Tracks: Time, Us And Them, Breathe, Eclipse, Brain Damage, Any Colour You Like [First added to this chart: 01/21/2017]

"The note he left was signed Old Father Thames, it seems he's drowned... selling England by the pound."
The most British album I've ever heard (And it's about Britain losing it's Britishness).
Favourite tracks: Dancing With The Moonlit Knight, Firth Of Fifth, The Cinema Show, The Battle Of Epping Forest [First added to this chart: 01/21/2017]
