Your 5 favorite albums

:-)

Henry Threadgill 5. I'm not familiar with his Air stuff so probably glaring omissions, but he's a marvel imo.

Henry Threadgill Sextett - Rag, Bush and All
Henry Threadgill Sextett - You Know The Number
Henry Threadgill & Very Very Circus - Spirit of Nuff .... Nuff
Henry Threadgill - Too Much Sugar For a Dime
Henry Threadgill & Make A Move - Where's Your Cup

OK if we're all just taking the piss now here's the last 5 albums I recently enjoyed more than most:

The Blood Brothers - Young Machetes
Efterklang - Parades
...And You Will Know us by the Trail of Dead - Tao of the Dead
A Forest of Stars - Beware the Sword You Cannot See
Ruins - Tzomborgha

I prefer Threadgill's non-Air stuff myself. All those albums are great.

He is so great, I only just got into him last year with his zooid In for a penny album, which I thought was pretty great. But much of his 90's/00's output is amazing.

black dice - beaches & canyons
hole - celebrity skin
cassie - s/t
ruff sqwad - guns & roses vol. 2
meat puppets - II

winner

Sleep - Dopesmoker
Darkthrone - A Blaze in the Northern Sky
The Congos- Heart of the Congos
Pet Shop Boys - Actually
Igor Stravinsky - The Rite of Spring

hah I see someone else just nommed Actually!

yeah, If I had to pick one album, it would probably be that one.

I went for Behaviour but it's hard to argue with Actually. Very was on a couple of lists at the beginning of the thread as well. Those are the three Pet Shop masterpieces for me.

Bonkers 2: Now We're Totally Bonkers
Bonkers 3: A Journey into Madness

69 Love Songs

No Lloyd Cole?

I think he'll have to be at #6 with his first solo LP.

It's a close-run thing for sure.

But "69 Love Songs" is a triple album. Doesn't that count as three?

Nah, there have been plenty of double albums mentioned itt
