London Calling because I nominated it and it's brilliant and Pet Sounds which is also brilliant and has God Only Knows on it which I love.

 

Pet Sounds should win this by a huge margin.

Pet Sounds and London Calling. That Arctic Monkeys album was ace though. 

[Total Longo]

Pet Sounds and Leftism, both superb albums. London Calling (like so many double albums) would have benefitted from a bit of editing down to a brilliant single album, and I honestly think the Arctic Monkeys are the most overrated band in history.

The other two are decent enough offerings but it's obviously The Beach Boys and The Clash.

I watched their Glastonbury set a year after they hit the big time on telly and they looked like they smashed it, reviews from people there agreed. Saw them at Reading in 2009 and they were shite. Well, probably not shite but they went on after the Prodigy and anyone would be after them.

It was. Still is.

Beach Boys plus one other. I went for Arctic monkeys as the second as the clash will get second.

London Calling and Pet Sounds

Pet Sounds and Leftism

[SasaS]

London Calling and then Leftism, which I have never heard before and was surprisingly enjoyable. It slightly edged Arctic Monkeys, when applying my what-would-I-play-again-sooner rule. Pet Sounds was a bit too obvious a choice at this stage.

Really? I always thought London Calling was held in such high regard because there were hardly any fillers. What would you leave out?

[Code]

Leftfield with Leftism obviously.

Can I change my vote? 

[SasaS]

Is that the last group?

[Bjornebye]

No. Two more. One 4, one 5.

How about no.

That Arctic Monkeys album was so fucking great when it landed. Brilliant album, amongst the poserish dreck the indie scene was at the time it was such a breath of fresh air. Before they in turn disappeared up their own arses. 

 

Anyways, the answer is still, obviously, Pet Sounds and London Calling.

Toni Halliday, though.

Hard work her

[Red Shift]

 

[AngryOfTuebrook]

The Clash plus one, for me.

 

I could take or leave the other three, but I suppose Leftism is the one I'd most likely choose to listen to.

I loved her when she was in Curve.
