The Seeker Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Sticky Fingers is nice but the later Stones (69/70 onwards) aren't really my cup of tea... and I liked all the Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain songs I've heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Very cool list! Essential albums for all music lovers. I voted for 6 of the 10, and the top 4 are the same as mine. I think that might mean I'm very predictable. But very classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lea Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Nice ten. I sure wish PF could have made it but... I can't believe I had to leave the Floyd album off my list. It's my favorite group. Animals was never one of my favorite albums by them tho. If DSOTM, Wish You Were Here , Division Bell, or Saucer Full Of Secrets etc. had been nominated it would have taken my #1 spot. I didnt think unless your a die hard fan of PF, that Animals would have gotten as many votes as one of the others might have. Animals is an excellent album but not as mainstream popular as some of the others. All the albums that were nominated were fantastic albums and if the list had been a top 40 they would have all made it I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel2Velvet Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 This is a great list! Personally prefer LZ III to LZ nada and would have loved to see Carole King's truly groundbreaking Tapestry in the ten, but hey, the competition was very stiff and the winning albums all top of the line ... without doubt!

edna Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Oh, what a classic yet amazing list!! It was very predictable... well, I knew what the three first albums would be... I´m glad "GYBR" made it, I had to leave Elton John from my Top and it´s one of my favorite records ever... LZI, Blonde on Blonde and "A Night at The Opera" deserved to be there as well...
