Kansas- Leftoverture 17. Styx- Peices Of Eight18. Yes- Tales From Topographic Oceans19. Fleetwood Mac- Mirage20. The Beatles- Rubber Soul Only artist I truly got stuck on was Bruce Springsteen. I have six albums I am equally wild (and innocent) about. I cannot of think of any artists majorly missing...ok I joke...as these next ten are fluid favourites alongside the twenty previous (I know most people have one or two bands they obsess over...sorry I am not one of them). No Doubt- Return Of SaturnJimmy Eat World- ClarityThe Juliana Theory- LoveThe Killers- Battle BornIdlewild- The Remote Part Taking Back Sunday- Louder NowMineral- End SerenadingHIM- Love MetalMastodon- LeviathanThe Gathering- Mandylion Edited March 31, 2016 by Segue Myles 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) Looking at that list of thirty albums by thirty bands... I am a die hard fan of every one of those bands and I left many more off. I need help. Edited March 31, 2016 by Segue Myles 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Dad Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Whaaaaaa?????? :spitwater: How is this different than your top 20 albums? So you want your favorite albums by favorite band in order?? So like my 3rd favorite album is not by my 3rd favorite band so I skip it and put my favorite album by my 3rd favorite band? OrAm i just an idiot?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 What made this hard was making a definitive list of just 20 bands...the album choices were easy but those ten I left off, some of them I thought would be in the top twenty but I couldn't fit them in... I am also thinking Thrice are not top twenty, and possibly Khoma...those albums I picked for each mean the world to me but I think the bands themselves have lost a little edge over time in my affections (in spite of my recent discovery). Hhhhmmmm... If I can ONLY have a maximum of 20 (which I thought at first was too BIG a number), then I have some need of revision... Insomnia keeps me up, lists keep me sane, OCD keeps me focused.

The other list was of bands that you think define classic rock with the respective album. This list is more personal. And now you mention have the bands in an actual order... I need to pause and breathe... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cat 3 Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) Digital Dad... Pick your favourite album for each of your favourite bands. For example... Pink Floyd is one of your favourite bands. So... Pink Floyd - The Final Cut Genesis is another of your favourite bands. So... Genesis - Selling England By the Pound ...and so on.

OK...this is driving me wild I was too quick...I am going to pick twenty bands...one album each (obviously my favourite)...and list them 1) In order of preferred band And then 2) In order of preferred album. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
