So do you all have these in your collections?LOL I can bet, most of you even never heard of these tracks.Call yourself a mucis lover? :D

No fucking way!!:mad: :mad: :mad:

Now come on guys, I think apola's got a point here.....you've got to have some utter crap in your collection to appreciate the quality cds. So, pick one from apola's lot, listen to it and then put on the second worst cd in your collection and it'll sound like Mozart.:D

Cylob 11th January 2004 20:31

:up:
But you don't have to have crap in your own collection. I leave that to the mass media.:D

marvinbarcelona 11th January 2004 20:35

Cylob, you have the advantage...anyone finds your crap you can always blame it on the kids.

Cylob 11th January 2004 20:47

There's nothing under my rug mate.....

BTW, who's played Ottowan twice in the same day? Once is an eyebrow raiser, twice is a call to the style police...:D

marvinbarcelona 11th January 2004 21:33

Ottawan? Never heard of 'em. Don't know what you're talking about.:weird:

Cylob 12th January 2004 05:43

My mistake, it was Ottowan once, and Goombay Dance Band once.:D

Can't resist a happy/gay tune eh?

But you apparently don't buy albums...? MP3s are a great way to try out artists/genres/albums, but you really should be purchasing albums if you aren't.

ViperJackson 19th January 2004 04:32

Oh yeah, and I'll say Velvet Underground and Nico since Cylob doesn't have any VU in his playlist which is pretty much criminal.

Cylob 20th January 2004 07:44

Get out of it, I do have some Lou Reed!!!

I have 600 CD's on the wall, I calculate I've pumped between £6,000 - £7,000 British pounds into the corrupt industry.

They ain't getting another penny.

Middle-men became obsolete 2 years ago... if 100% of my money went to the artists I'd buy. I've had this discussion 10,000 times now.:mad:

Not to be pedantic, but 'Beat It' was on Thriller, not Bad. And though I listen to a lot of rock, metal, and other non-Michael-Jackson-genres, I gota say his album ‘Thriller’ deserves to be in every collection. It’s simply a classic. Billie Jean and Thriller alone make it worthy.

lostonline 19th February 2004 08:53

What is essential depends on taste, so here are the essentials from my collection (or a few that I can think of at the moment):

Blur - The Best Of
Coldplay - Parachutes
Faithless - Reverence
Kruder & Dorfmeister - The K&D Sessions
Leftfield - Leftism
Massive Attack - Blue Lines
Nirvana - In Utero
Radiohead - The Bends
Underworld - Dubnobasswithmyheadman
The Verve - Urban Hymns
Zero 7 - Simple Things

and also...
Shirehorses - The Worst Album In The World...Ever...EVER!

There are probably more, but these are ones that I keep going back to :)

kris_man 24th February 2004 12:22

i could not imagine life without :

The Tea Party - "the Interzone Mantras"
Ben Harper - "Fight For Your Mind"
Pearl Jam - "ten"
Joe Satriani - "Time Machine"
Jeff Buckley - "Grace". thanx to whoever it was who mentioned jeff b4. this is an amazing album.

kris_man 24th February 2004 12:33

Cylob 24th February 2004 16:16

Probably the most sample-heavy album of its time. It's now 15 years old (and a classic).:) Consigned thus.

Are you saying it is a bad album? Musically it is poor but the lyrics and humour are great.
