1987 - THE YEAR © ℗®™ Part 8 - Which album from this list of 1987 releases do you consider to be the best?

[JohnnyBlaze]

Pink Floyd - A Momentary Lapse of Reason

^^^Yep, this^^^!

 

I’m not seeing that option. Otherwise, I would’ve voted that way

It's not in. I could edit it?

 

Well, that’s up to you. But it looks like at least it’d get 3 votes from us here. Maybe more?

Ok I'll slip it there then while there's still time to edit it.

Pink Floyd - A Momentary Lapse of Reason

 

That one comes in second for me. Appetite wins easily.

Ok it's in, Alice Cooper got jettisoned.

Cool I just changed my vote but the spindly maggot with the squelch of a voice will still win. It’s too bad because some of Guns’ riffs are decent enough. It’s mainly the vocals

Clutching At Straws

Changed my vote after this was put in - The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land...

Yep. Time pass, the river roll.

Some decent albums from Dio, Marillion and Floyd but The Joshua Tree still resonates the most for me.

[stoopid]

Appetite For Destruction. It was such a great sound after some of the other 80's stuff. It was a struggle between that and U2's Joshua Tree, though.

 

Same for me. Joshua Tree to my ears now is a 'better' listen, but I cannot deny Appetite's value and impact.

[tangy]

in 1987, the RHCP released their best record imo.

 

the uplift mofo party plan.

 

[78jazz]

This one was the easiest by far. Hysteria, Girls x 3 and 1987 are all great albums.

 

But they're not as good as Appetite, and none of the others on this list even belongs in the same sentence with it.

 

I would say that A Momentary Lapse of Reason and The Joshua Tree were excellent albums that should be considered as well.

 

Outside of these 3, I can probably skip the rest of them.

The guitar intro to this song is bad fukking ass.

Yeah, I should have included Joshua in the list of comparables.

Yeah, that guitar cuts right through you.

[laughedatbytime]

As much as I hate the bloated carcass they became, I have to go with G'n'R here.

[treeduck]

Well my favourite album of the year 1987 is Allan Holdsworth's SAND album, Dokken's Back For the Attack is second.

[RushFanForever]

Joe Satriani - Surfing With The Alien was voted 'best guitar album' of 1987 by Guitar Player Magazine.
