wow! i thought you'd never do a "top list". none the less, it's a very pleasant surprise ;)

I'll sort one out today.

 

I know I don't have 100 albums, and I can guarantee that every Chili Peppers albums will be somewhere, cause they all are some of my favourite albums. But I won't just list em off the bat, it'll be genuine.

 

Oh, and do live albums count?

No you can't include live albums or best of's. Glad to see you're doing a list. ;)

Yeah.

 

I'm getting annoyed at it though. Because I wouldn't say I have so many favourite albums. I get to about 20 and then start listing albums I enjoy but I wouldn't consider favourites.

 

I'm over it though. And cracking on :P

Mine is in the works :cool:

my fault, sorry. it's still in the old thread ;)

 

http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1768735&postcount=28

 

I'll sort one out today.

 

I know I don't have 100 albums, and I can guarantee that every Chili Peppers albums will be somewhere, cause they all are some of my favourite albums. But I won't just list em off the bat, it'll be genuine.

cool! :cool:

 

expecting your list then, Jack!

 

i probably shouldn't have "banned" the live albums, but oh well... next time ;)

Here's a sketch... basically all the albums that have had a chance to seep into my conciousness. There are so many others that I really love that belong on the list, but I don't own them and haven't heard them in awhile or sometimes in their entirety, so I wouldn't know where to rank them at all. I really don't know if I can rank just these ones though... it's complicated and changes all the time.

I'm not very sure its very hard but I think that's it

wow! i thought you'd never do a "top list". none the less, it's a very pleasant surprise ;)

 

It was hard narrowing down to make a top 10, I could never do a top 100 album list that I would be happy with.

^ Wow, I'm surprised to see Be Here Now so high.

 

It's mainly due to it's flow between tracks, I have the album on cassette tape which I used to listen to when coming back from gigs (before I got myself an iPod) and at other times in the car, and on day early morning when I was doing a taxi-run for my brother and his mates, it clicked me how the songs flowed into each other, you knew it was a new song but it sounded like a continuous loop. Be Here Now gets from beating from people for not being What's the story morning glory part 2, but still is a great album.

btw the best tool for compiling such lists is EXCEL
