I Have Never Listened To:

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

This is going to sound horribly pseudy, but I have actually heard every one of those 100 albums.

I haven't even heard of half of them.

Love?

Nick Drake?

Love?

Great Californian band of the late 60's.

Nick Drake?

English singer-songwriter of the early 70's who died at 24. One of the greatest acoustic guitar players ever.

[Provost Harrison]

The Streets? Some chav talking over music? Oh please

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

Some chav with a wickedly acute writer's eye for fine detail. Anyone who isn't cheering him on by the end of "Empty cans" hasn't got a soul.

[Immortal Wombat]

It looks like a pretty good cross-section of the British public's tastes to me. None of them would be in a top 20 of my favourite artsits, but I would be happy to listen to the majority of them.

[Verres]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. 100 years from now, Nick Drake will enjoy the same levels of fame as Van Gogh does today. Good to see him moving up the list, seeing as he sold fewer than 5,000 albums in his lifetime.

I only discovered Nick Drake relatively recently, but his music truly is genius

[Alex]

yes, nick drake is really good.

It's amazing how people can like crappy things like this. And I cannot understand how three of these albums can actually be better than Joy Division's Closer.

Most people have a very poor musical taste indeed.

Never heard of Closer, but "Like a Prayer" is a great album and "Rio" is pretty damned good as well. Good 80s stuff .

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

Glaring omissions-

Van Morrison- "Astral Weeks"
Miles Davis- "Kind of blue"
The Rolling Stones- "Let it bleed"
Bruce Springsteen- "Nebraska"
My Bloody Valentine- "Loveless"
The Stooges- "Fun house"
Can- "Monster Movie"
This Mortal Coil- "It'll end in tears"

[The Emperor Fabulous]

Air:

[Az]

Everyone, I mean, EVERYONE, must listen to Moon Safari, at least once.

[MosesPresley]

Laz, they mentioned "Let it Bleed"

For some pretty good and very funny music reviews, check out this link. He even explains the Eagles, that's accomplishment in and of itself.
