Top 21 Greatest Music Albums
by jgrw 
this is not in order, it isn't possible, that changes depending on mood. The funny thing is regardless of how many records I have, I only go back to a handful. I have a full 180gb ipod and only yesterday found myself listening to John Hiatt's "Bring the Family" (30 years old) for the umpteenth time. Its a bit disturbing how my favourite music is dominated by white men. I am trying to rectify this prejudice and will revist this chart as I positively discriminate with new music. To this end, to date I have really enjoted Hinds, The Big Moon, Man Ray and Courtney Barnett. Going baclwards Liz Phair certainly could become a turntable stable, and Juliana Hatfield is up there too. I am trying to take in a bit of Grown up music and have gone down the Mingus and Monk route. Any recommendations?

UK version: Flawless and sonically perfect record. Bill Price enginerred this and the sound separation is magnificent. Its not exactly Sgt Pepper, but you can hear every single thing that is going on. At this point in their history you can't quite tell that London Calling was in this band, although some of Mick Jones playing is just a far enough detached from the three chord anybody can play Punk ideal to make this what it has become, the first Clash LP . . The songs are now rock and roll standards. Ths sleeve is an Icon, and as already stated the first pressing sounds fantastic. I dont bother with the cd, sounds alright on mp3 though.

Its London Calling, what else is there to say? At least they have not disceted it to the degree The White Album has been subjected to. There is a late 90s remaster that sounds great on vinyl and the 25th anniversary CD means you can hear the whole thing without getting up.
