Favourite album (or CD for the kids in the crowd)

[ynot]

Someone recently had a post about catchy classic songs and it got me to wondering, what's every one's favourite album? I ask about albums because if you're like me, you can't narrow it down to one single favourite song. I'll probably end up adding a few of people's favourites to my CD collection.

So here goes, my favourite album is Veruca Salt's American Thighs. Love every track but one.

Wish you were here... Pink Floyd
Sorry, but Wish You Were Here has been commonly regarded as the worst of Pink Floyd. I personally LOVE The Wall, and like Dark Side of the Moon.

New Order - Republic
Since you are at New Order, why not Joy Division all the way??

[bionicbadger]

Sorry, but Wish You Were Here has been commonly regarded as the worst of Pink Floyd. I personally LOVE The Wall, and like Dark Side of the Moon.

I like "wish you were here" far more than "piper at the gates of dawn", I don't think its their worst albumn, it propbably better than "division bell" too

[alainsane]

AllMusic.com rates "Wish You Were Here" at 5 stars, and they're pretty good with their reviews and ratings. Besides...this thread was about our subjective favourites: not the objective best. ;)
