    Default Best Album of all time

    Well with all these musical threads I figured Id start 1 more.

    For me its again the Beatles. To me Abbey Road is the best Album ever produced. Next id go with Tommy by the Who. and Aqualung by Jethro Tull. I really am a 60s British invasion maniac I think the late 60s and early 70s were the pinnacle of roack.

    Tommy is definitely right up there. I think I'd include DSOTM for it's sheer ubiquity and listenability, Led Zeppelin II, The Wall for its conceptness, and my favourite Beatles album, Revolver.

    The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust is also a great Album

    'Fear of the dark' by Iron Maiden and 'A night at the opera' by Blind Guardian. Two amazing albums in which every song is a winner.

    INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
    GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
    INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

    Um... this is hard.
    One more from the Road by skynyrd gets my vote though.
    I love live albums
