Thanks Aardvark
Wide awake in ameriac is the only album I miss from u2, and best of 1980-1990.
Magical mystery tour!! I love the song !! Maybe I buy that album
 
As requested:wink:

Suede - Dog Man Star
The Beatles - Revolver
Richard Ashcroft - Alone With Everybody

:up:
 
Bob Dylan - The Essential (I would recommend a specific album, but since you don't have any Dylan, it's a good place to start)
INXS - Kick
Jeff Buckley - Grace
REM - Out Of Time
 
Definitely Magical Mystery Tour!!! Though it's not exactly cohesive as an album, it's got killer tracks throughout. Revolver is a must, can't believe you don't have it already! :tsk: White Album is a must too! Everything from Hard Day's Night thru Let It Be is a must have! :wink:
 
I more like the blue album, songs like across the universe, a day in the life, get back. So maybe I must start with their latest, let it be.

[martijn plug]You want some Urban Dance Squad![/martijn plug]

Thank you Yertle. :wink:
And I saw that Tröckener Kecks was also missing in the collection. Their final live album Meer Niet! is a great place to start.
Elvis Costello is also missing. :tsk: So buy My Aim Is True, This Year's Model, Armed Forces, Get Happy!!, Trust, Imperial Bedroom, King Of America, Blood & Chocolate and The Delivery Man. Now! (Or start with the 2CD The Very Best Of...)

:)
 
Trockener kecks? Do they still exist?
Further I don't know any of them martijn! Except costello.
But it's worth a listen...
 
No, the Kecks sadly disbanded on 31-12-2001. But the live album from their farewell tour is kickass!

And you don't know Urban Dance Squad... :tsk:
 
Temporarily Expendable
From their album Planet Ultra. Good song, good album too. I'd suggest that their first album Mental Floss For The Globe is a good place to start. IMO, all their albums are great, but Mental Floss... is maybe a bit more accessible and coherent than Life 'n Perspectives Of A Genuine Crossover, Persona Non Grata (their raw guitar album), Planet Ultra or Artantica. And their live album Beograd Live is of course also a good place to start as it contains songs from their first four albums. You might even find that album cheap at the Free Record Shop or so...

You need:

Any 80s INXS
Any 80s REM
Any 80s Cure

Lemme take a wild stab in the dark here. You love the 80s! :wink:

But you're right.

Life's Rich Pageant, Document :drool:
Listen Like Thieves, Kick :drool:


I don't know much Cure. :reject:
 
Yeah I like Brittish rock (60s, 70s, 80s). Also 90s are some great albums. I listen to old music for my age (21) and I think that before my birth they made better music than after my birth, except for a few bands like u2.

very true. same here. and I'm 26. But I do think the period 1987 - 1994 was one of the best in history.. on the lines of 1967 - 1973!
 
i hate when people say stuff like "i'm 21, i listen to music too old for my age." people don't chose not to listen to mozart and beethoven because they're only 60, and those guys were dead centuries ago. the definition of a classic is that it transcends time.

as far as your original question goes, you can keep yourself musically busy for many, many years catching up on just the classics. find some way to broaden your musical tastes to encompass a larger variety.

and if your clash 'best of' doesn't have "death or glory" on it, you should get london calling before you do anything else. and by anything else, i mean anything else. go! now!!
 
You need, IMO

Franz Ferdinand - You Could Have it So Much Better
Michael Jackson - Thriller
Prince - Purple Rain
Paul McCartney/Wings - Wingspan: Hits and History (good place to start if u wanna start listening to them)
The Who - Who's Next :drool:
Born to Run - Bruuuuuuuuce :drool:
Low - David Bowie :drool: x 1000000000000000000000
