Now you really are being ridiculous. How can you possibly discount Bringing It All Back Home, Highway 61 Revisted, Blonde On Blonde (probably his best), Blood On The Tracks, The Basement Tapes and more recently Time Out Of Mind, which is a real corker and an amazing comeback record after all the (granted) years of cak?

I'd agree with the "second album hihgpoint" bit....for me it's never been bettered BUT to discount Blonde on Blonde, Nashville Skyline, Blood on the Tracks and maybe Desire seems a tad harsh.


Still, can't help myself hating three albums of pseudo Judeo-Christian rock shite.


Edit - as Jah has also pointed out.

He should never have gone electric. (*Finishes cider, does up duffle coat, leaves*)

Then there are the bands that imploded under the weight if their egos.

ELO and Yes spring to mind. The eighties weren't kind to any of the seventies prog era bands were they (well musically, financially some did well, Phil Collins who must have done some evil pact to create such dire turgid shite and sell 150 million albums!!!!!!!!!)

i utterly disagree with massive attack- the first album was sublime- the second album good and everything since has been dull


however; one i forgot to mention on the new albums thread is massive attack....i've heard a track from it and it sounds superb

Oooh Jefferson Airplane.

Takes off is a bit dull, Surrealistic Pillow surely one of the definitive sixties creations full stop. And then it all turned sour again.

Thy should hang their collective heads and apologise to the world for Starship too while they're at it.

Well I haven't heard the new one, but I thought they were pretty consistent. I loved mezzanine, but it is darker and less touchy feeling than protection for sure


Right, Radiator for the Super Furries, and I'd nominate them for not doing much wrong if you can get past the odd self indulgent weirdness and of course the Welsh!!!

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.     
    • That’s very insulting! You are basically calling 17 million people that voted to leave the EU ‘thick’.        Brexit happened Sue.  Boring graphs!  Calling Nigel Farage a plastic patriot is also very insulting seeing as he and the Reform Party have had a landslide victory all over England.
    • These charity collectors are often classed as chuggers.  It can be scandalous that the charity/admin may keep a huge percentage of your donations and a tiny percentage is  actually given to the charity.   I can not speak for individual collectors - but it common practice.
