Holy bleep! I read through the pages on this thread, and thought "I'll throw in Dvorak New World Symphony as performed by the Cleveland Orchestra. Then someone else posts exactly that! Holy bleep again!

Here is my list, in no particular order:

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
Joni Mitchell - Blue
Tool - Lateralus
Moody Blues - This is the Moody Blues
Tame Impala - Innerspeaker
Credence Clearwater Revival - Cosmos Factory
Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness
The Amazing - Gentle Stream
The Beatles - Revolver
Cleveland Orchestra - From the New World (Dvorak)

Honorable Mention: Tumbleweed Connection (Elton); Everything else by the Beatles & Pink Floyd; Physical Graffiti (Zep); Ten (PJ); Yes (Yes); Pearl (Janis); Rust Never Sleeps/Harvest (Neil Young); Kid A (Radiohead)

Excuse me while I resurrect this thread for everyone who missed it the last time. I can get it down to 20 if I limit it to the rock genre, broadly defined.

Ok Computer -- Radiohead
Abbey Road -- The Beatles
Little Earthquakes -- Tori Amos
The Wall -- Pink Floyd
Takk -- Sigur Ros
Aqualung -- Jethro Tull
Wincing the Night Away -- The Shins
Goodbye Yellow Brick Road -- Elton John
Animals -- Pink Floyd
Lateralus -- Tool
The Beatles -- The Beatles
Physical Graffiti -- Led Zeppelin
Boys for Pele -- Tori Amos
Aenima -- Tool
Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness -- Smashing Pumpkins
Ten -- Pearl Jam
The Bends -- Radiohead
Wish You Were Here -- Pink Floyd
Funeral -- Arcade Fire
Begin to Hope -- Regina Spektor

You an I have very similar tastes. My wife is a Tori Amos fan. I haven't listened to much of Arcade Fire, but I will have to take a closer look now.

When I was dating my now wife, she couldn't understand how I enjoyed Sigur Ros so much as their lyrics are either Icelandic or made up. She then accompanied me to a show during Hvarf/Heim and she completely flipped her script. Hoppípolla was played at our wedding.

Your list is pretty close. I might swap The Bends for In Rainbows, White Album for Revolver, and add Death Cab's Transatlanticism somewhere but that's about it. If you'd have told me I'd spend my 1,000th post 10 years ago talking about Sigur Ros I'd laugh at you, but here we are.

Happy Collecting

One I forgot to mention and I'm sure will leave a lot of head scratching. If I had two Wagners I'd give one to someone if they honestly knew who this band was.


Truckfighters - Gravity X

I was listening to Queen's "A Night At The Opera" last night on vinyl (yes vinyl), and that one is creeping ever so closely to my top 10.

Good stuff. They didn't make my list, but my son's middle name is Mercury. I figure that counts for something.

That counts :) My son's name is Jude if that tells you something about me and The Beatles :)

"Jude" himself:

I wanted to name my daughter Anastasia, but that was vetoed by my wife (decidedly not a Tori Amos fan). I'm guessing that might not have been a problem for you.

Not a problem at all. As soon as I suggested it, my wife said "that's it". She's a fan too :)

Our son's name is also Jude. Our new born daughter is Lyla taken from Oasis.

Great minds think alike I suppose.

Can't forget this one.
