Nope...I want to stay and watch you guys bash it, while I listen to the whole album enjoying all its radio-friendliness!!!!

Love Over Gold, for the sublime Telegraph Road.

 

If you were including live albums, too, my choice would obviously have been Alchemy

Brothers in Arms will always have a special place with me, because it was one of the first few albums I owned on cassette as a child.

Making Movies and Love Over Gold are my favorites, but I'll give the nod to Love Over Gold for its production value. Just perfectly recorded. Telegraph Road and It Never Rains are my favorite tracks from the album. Both start quietly and build seamlessly. Side A of Making Movies is fantastic, but the B side doesn't hold up to Love Over Gold.

 

I'll give a shout out to Brothers in Arms. It's excellent, but the first three tracks were overplayed to a point where I don't need to hear them again. The balance of the album is still fantastic to my ears.

Honestly I'm surprised to see they had so many albums. :unsure:

 

they can be the price of having a smash album..........public might tend to think it's your debut, lol

 

Mick

 

So many people think Springsteen started with BITUSA.

 

Others think Nightwish started with Once.

 

It gets annoying.

 

I might try this band again.

Making Movies is actually very close to Springsteen's vibe.....i think it's the production.
