Best Full Album

[CMorg]

I figured since the " what are you listening to " thread has went over so well , I would do this one. Dedicated to best full album , every song has to be good. I know there arent that many best full cd's out there , but here are three that I can think of right off the top of my head. 1. Green Day , American Idiot 2. Green Day , 21st. Century Breakdown. 3. Kix , Blow My Fuse. I am sure there are others. I am sure some of you younger members dont even know what an album is , or who Kix is...

without a doubt cmorg...........THE WALL, PINK FLOYD. AC/DC, BACK IN BLACK. so many are running throughmy head now i can't type fast enough. but these are the top 2 in my opion.

As long as you don't be knockin da blues!

[WaffleJaw]

I thought of some more albums that I truely think are great.

Faith No More -Angel Dust
White Zombie - Astro Creep 2000
Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
Alice N Chains - Dirt
Victor Wooten - Show of Hands
311 - Music
In Flames - Reroute to Remain
Del - Deltron 3030 (The very ,very little Hip Hop I listen too)
MosDef - Black on Both sides (Thats all my Hip Hop,lol)

[nofearengineer]

A couple more of mine....

Peter Gabriel - Security
Queen - Night at the Opera (well-known, but timelessly flawless)

By the way...love OK Computer, think Mother's Milk was far superior to BSSM, Alanis is annoying yet simultaneously amazing, any TOOL is more than adequate for rocking out, and The Who (anything) goes without saying.

Mother's Milk is a great album...(Man I need to put that back in rotation)
Alanis is a great songwriter ,but a horrible Harmonica player,hahaha
I grew up listening to The Who....John Enwhistle is still one of my top 10 favorite bassist of all time...I currently only own the ''greatest hits'' album ,haha


Oh,Rage Against The Machine - self title & Evil Empire were both knock out albums...I never cared for the vocals of Zach,but the riffs and music were outstanding!!

[jasonfish320]

There's some great albums you guys have on here, but two that really have stuck with me for years has been:

1) Nirvana- Unplugged in New York

2) Sublime- Sublime

Zach De LaRocha may be the single most misguided crybaby idiot on the planet, but man, I sure love the energy he brought to Morello's riffing. I always used to look forward to ripping through "Killing in the Name of" when my band was covering it. "**** you, I won't do what you tell me!!!!"

As if that were blues. I could play the same base line under a Hank Williams song, and it wouldn't make it Country and Western.

Those guys are very good though.

I got to admit, I don't think I'd get into the blues as far as playing it if I were learning to play bass. It's a lot easier to get into playing blues with a 6 string. Plus I've always been around a blues band because my bro in law plays bass in one. (note: he married my sister 3 yrs before I was born. Yes, I was a late in life accident. )

This is them, the bass player is my bro in law, and he's always played with the singer/guitarist. So that's where I pick a lot up from. The drummers and other guys/gals always change but those two have always played together for as long as I can remember.

Ok, back to topic...
You're likely to find any of these in the cd player along with any number of things. These are staples in my opinion though.

Ozzy - Bark at the Moon
Ozzy - No Rest for the Wicked
The Rolling Stones - December's Children (or anything stones)
SRV - The Essential Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble
AC/DC - Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime
Iron Maiden - Seventh Son (or any I.M.)
Hank Williams Sr. - I got a boxed set I play all the time.
