re: Aereogramme, I could never really get into their older albums. The last one is the one where everything finally clicked. Just brilliant, beautiful, gorgeous music.

a thing abt listmaking for me is that I can never really visualize or remember all my favorite albums at once, but I want to, since they make up a big part of who I understand myself to be, so making lists is kind of an attempt to grasp my own musical taste, and watching other peoples improvised lists in this thread reminds me of a lot of those non-cannon gems that are also in my top tier and that I really want to remember

Renaissance are such a good band. I might go with Live at Carnegie Hall as my pick.

I think that the later Melt Banana albums might be more solid but it really comes down to Cell Scape having such an exciting sequence at the start.

i much prefer "The Brute" as a collaborator rather than a leader, he has such a godlike natural style he doesn't need to burdened with anything else imo

Renaissance's first line up are also pretty decent.They were initially a Yardbirds spin off but I don't think any of that line up lasted into the better known one from the 70s.Keith Relf and his sister started looking into blending stuff together with classical and folk influences alongside Jim Mcarty the Yardbirds drummer.
I have a Sanctuary compilation 2cd that has some nice stuff on it.

this has been creeping upwards into my top 10... so great, at the edge of despondent post-JD goth but with so much clarity and life. and the massive drumming is incredible. just a spectacular job all around (production, songwriting, playing, singing).

um this one's creeping up there too! it pushes the boundaries of experimentation w/r/t synth pop while remaining perfectly accessible. not a single unnecessary note.
― brimstead, Wednesday, 19 October 2016 20:19 (seven years ago) link
absolutely - I always liked that album but somehow during one 45-minute drive the whole thing completely clicked for me and I've never heard it the same way since
definitely checking out the other albums on that list now

This is an interesting opinion, one I don't think is widely shared.
