Ace albums you own that you forgot about

[Juniper]

Bought an mp3 player the other week and I’ve been steadily adding all the albums I own onto it to keep me company on the train to and from gigs. Seeing as I can now pretty much access any album I own while out an about I’ve started listening to albums I had in boxes that I pretty much forgot (somehow!) I own.

 

Has anyone come across an album they own that they somehow forgot how much they appreciated the music

 

My albums I’m hooked on again are so far:

 

UNKLE : Psyence Fiction

Sigur Ros: ()

Rage Against The Machine: The Battle Of Los Angeles

Nirvana: MTV Unplugged

 

Anyone else?

Rust never sleeps - Neil Young.

[Fink]

David Bowie - Hunky Dory

[Guest TK-421]

I always end up going back to Jane's Addiction's Ritual de lo Habitual and Nothing's Shocking. They're both great LPs.

 

Any you can't beat Slanted and Enchanted from Pavement, unless you listen to some other Pavement stuff.

Cyprus Hill - Temple of BOOM!

[El Rojo]

Dog Man Star by Suede was released within months of Definitely Maybe and Parklife and thus fell off the radar. An astonishingly ambitious record which is always worth a return to.

Cyprus Hill - Temple of BOOM!

 

 

Actually thats a good shout - aint listened to any cypress hill fer ages.

[Juniper]

Rust never sleeps - Neil Young.

 

Good Choice

 

I should have added Neil Young's Harvest to my original post.

 

Bought it for my girlfriend a couple of years ago and only re-discovered it with the others I found.

[Red Lead]

David Holmes - Let's Get Killed.... not so much forgot about, but ace all the same.

Black Sunday is a classic that will be uploaded to my player later.

Ive also been listening to Lionrock - an Instinct for detection this week which I think I last listened to in about 2000. Must be the sun getting me all retro.

[gazelle]

Freestylers as well, cant think of the name right this second..

The one with 'you gotta get down with the stylers, original gangsters, we dont take no prison n n n ers'...

I listened to Black Sunday on my way into work the other day. It almost immediately washed away any memories of that dreadful metal crossover album that they did. That was appalling.

 

Good shout on Battle For Los Angeles. Guerilla Radio is a classic. Prefer Evil Empire as an album though.

 

Most recent shot from the vaults has been "I Can't Imagine A World Without ME" by Echobelly. Great stuff. Reminds me of being 15 again.

[dirty_sanchez]

Wait, that's "...without me" not "...without ME". I can imagine a world without ME. Generally the world would be more productive.

Yeah that metal/rap album (Skull & Bones) is in the pile of cd's which probably wont get added. The album after that (Stoned Raiders) was even more pants, thats the last time I bought one of their albums

 

As for 'Evil Empire' I've never stopped listening to that album, my favorite Rage cd.

Neil Young rules the house down!

 

On the talk of rap albums i've got Dr Dre's 2001 ablum in mine somewhere. I might dig that out tonight and smoke some blunt's wit me bitch.

Is faultless in my opionion, that wouldn't be on this list for me as i listen to it all the time...

Looks like you haven't 'forgot about Dre' then

 

 

Sorry....I'll get my coat

Imho the album "IV" is fairly good, with some of the tracks harking back to Black Sunday - "Looking through the Eye of a Pig" is a great track to start it off with.

 

Supergrass, "I Should Coco" has been well played since it has been ipodded, but so have such "classics" as Earthling (the David Bowie jungle album),and a fair few Catatonia tracks, too. 'Tis a strange mix, to say the least.

And Born Without a Face.

[dirty_sanchez]

Ok, in fact, I take it back, the whole album is godlike.

[Juniper]

And Born Without a Face.

 

Good Tune

 

One of theirs that on the verses nearly crosses into that early 90's 'G-funk' sound
