Three favourite Albums.....

[Lawnmowerman, Tain]

Not THE three favourite albums. Three of your favourite albums.............

In no particular order and if I think about it slightly it would change again. What's three of your favourite albums? Bill

Jethro Tull - Aqualung

If not the title track then the barn-storming Locomotive Breath. Hard charging Tull at its best.

Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin III

The immigrant song - amazing. It was on the Juke Box by the pool when me and my two mates were on holiday in Majorca. We found the volume control (sorry to all our fellow guests who didn't share our musical taste). It got a few of our Pesetas over the fortnight.

I'll have a listen to them - trouble is if I like what I hear then I need to go through their back catalogues!

Don't need 3 - Love it!

I tended to buy compilations, but one which did get a good airing was Graceland, Paul Simon. I liked every track.

[BandN, Markyate]

Oh wow, what a question, loving the ones you've already said. I'll add 3 now which will undoubtedly change the more I think about it.

Arc of a diver -- Steve Winwood, early 80's.

The Promise -- Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. Released about 10 years ago, consisting of the lost sessions between Born to Run and Darkness on the Edge of Town in the 70's. Superb.

The Road to Escondido -- JJ Cale and Eric Clapton. If you ever want to hear 2 guitar heroes who are totally in awe of each other, listen to this. The song 'Ride the River' is amazing.

Now I'm looking through all my albums

[Delboy, Essex]

I used to buy compilations, have made up my own playlists on Spotify, not many artists I can listen to a complete album.

However there is one artist I enjoy listening to and it’s soul/blues singer song writer.Beth Hart.

Just love JJ Cale - only criticism? he seems to get too bored to write a song longer than 2 1/2 minutes! What a craftsman though - outstanding. Very much under-appreciated. Naturally and Troubadour are my favourites.

I tell you I am loving these replies - fantastic choices everyone.

Morning all, haven’t changed my mind yet but I do agree with almost all of the choices, great memories, let’s keep this thread going.

[ilovesunshine, east yorks]

surprised no one has mentioned Queen or Rolling Stones yet. No particular album, cant choose. The Cream of Clapton is one of my favourites.

[ilovesunshine, east yorks]

You have got me playing Layla now!

[yesrock, Liverpool]

Close to The Edge---Yes

Tales From Topographic Oceans---Yes

Relayer---Yes.

As you can see a bit of a Yes fan, I was going to see them at the Liverpool Philharmonic next month when they were going to play the whole of the Relayer album.
