i agree

Queen-Made in Heaven
Alfie Boe-Bring Him Home
Paolo Nutini-Sunny side Up

Pink Floyd. Dark Side of the Moon.
U2. The Joshua Tree
David Gray White Ladder.

Bump...

If your favourite album is the same as someone else's choice, that's OK as the whole point is to see which are best. If everyone is different, we won't have a top 20!
So start posting.

Great Thread LR and I must say 3 albums I like very much.
This is hard.
U2, No Line on the Horizon.
The Clash, Combat Rock
David Bowie, Hunky Dory

This is hard as I love all sorts of music. The immediate ones that come to mind are

Paul Simon - Graceland I love every song on that album
George Michael - Songs from the Last Century
Willie Nelson - On the Road Again, bought it because I have travelled on the City of New Orleans which one of the songs is about.
