Great choice. I would actually probably have ...Like Clockwork on my list. Been playing it non stop since it's release. Overtaken Rated R as my favorite QOTSA album.

Thanks man. Rated R is at the top of my list as well. I've been warming up to Clockwork been listening to it more lately. It's a great album, just is less my taste than R and SFTD. Or its just nostalgia bias lol

But you're cool with Celine Dion and Christopher Cross?

[fsvr54]

Are you Steve Albini?

I can't even begin to pick 5 albums, there's so many for many moods.

You know how I know OP is a lying **** that's trying to sound cool?

Nobody who like Zappa and Beefheart would like Aerosmith. Get the f*ck out of here.

Like to explain why? I understand their philosophies are opposed, but...

Also you realize this is a Basketball forum. Sounding cool here is not citing Beefheart (who less than 5% would have even heard of) and Zappa.

Unless I'm a wierd music hoarder I'd say I do like all three of them. Just because Zappa had a distaste for guys like Tyler who blurred the line between male and female and made music about their d*cks, doesn't mean I do.

[T_L_P]

Blonde on Blonde
Soft Bulletin
A Love Supreme
New York Dolls
Bryter Layter

OP stays losing though.

Nas - Life Is Good
GZA - Liquid Swords
OutKast - Aquemini
Kanye West - Graduation
Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory

[KobesFinger]

Jay-Z - The Blueprint

thanks! you seem to be a huge Steely Dan fan. I've really only listened to them in passing. I will check out the albums you posted. Would you recommend anyone of them first?

[Jailblazers7]

Here, My Dear - Marvin Gaye
Dirty Mind - Prince
Violin Concerto No. 1 - Philip Glass
Bon Iver, Bon Iver - Bon Iver

Had to give myself a variety of music. Really ****ing hard to only pick 5 albums.

Honestly every song they made was incredible.

I'd probably start with Katy Lied. Bad Sneakers is probably my all time #1 song.

You'd probably get into them very easily based on your list :)
