[Corcaigh_the_Cat]

I'll go Frank Zappa who I always say is my favourite musician (and Black Sabbath my favourite band)

Hot Rats
One Size Fits All
Joes Garage I, II & III

Might as well throw Sabbath in:

Volume 4
Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Sabotage

Zappa and Sabbath are two of mine too, but I'd have to include Sabbath's first album for the opening track alone.

 

[Borotommo]

Across all the years and variations upon a theme, the band I still love more than all others has to be Metallica

Ride The Lightening
Master of Puppets (one of my top 5 all time albums)
And Justice for All

Could probably make a top three for Ryan out of albums he's never officially released. STILL waiting on the long mooted bootleg/box set thing.

Apparently there's a version of him covering the Strokes' "Is this it?" somewhere which I'd be interested in listening to. He was Albert Hammond Jnrs dealer for a while around that point I believe.

 

[changingman]

You've come to the party with a band I've never heard of. Just having a quick listen on Spotify, they sound good.

Absolutely brilliant band - probably one of the best around at the moment imo.

Saw them headline the second stage at End of the Road a couple of years ago - blew the place apart.

 

[Malaguena]

"Armed Forces"?

Well that's the thing - it's impossible to pick just 3

I notice down the thread that AsRed (I think) went for 3 entirely different albums a little later in time than my 3, but equally valid

 

[London_Boro]

It's a really difficult thing, but if I had to single out one band it would have to be...

Queens Of The Stone Age
1) Songs For The Deaf
2) Like Clockwork
3) Rated R

Josh Homme, in my opinion is an absolute genius.

Definitely a special mention for Guns 'n' Roses though. They would be a very, very close 2nd. Well today anyway, this could flip again tomorrow.

 

[Brian Marwood]

INXS
Full Moon Dirty Hearts
Kick
X

NEW ORDER
Music Complete
Power Corruption Lies
Technique

THE SMITHS
The Queen is Dead
