5.0 classic
Amon Duul II Yeti
Amon Tobin Adventures In Foam
What a great album. Love the jazz/jungle mix. It is the album I play most of Tobin's discography. The warmest of his releases.
Amon Tobin Bricolage
Aphex Twin Selected Ambient Works Volume II
Aphex Twin ...I Care Because You Do
Autechre Tri Repetae
One of the great electronic albums. It holds up to repeated listens. Autechre have released some very good albums but this one is the best, closely followed by Amber - their only other essential album.
Autechre Amber
Autechre Tri Repetae++
Autechre Exai
Autechre Quaristice (Versions)
Bennie Maupin The Jewel in the Lotus
This album is a real grower. The first time I heard it I was underwhelmed - now I would rate it in my top ten jazz albums. If you enjoy Bitches Brew and Headhunters, you will love this album. Give it about four or five listens before it grabs you.
Bob Dylan Time Out of Mind
Bob Dylan John Wesley Harding
Bob Dylan Highway 61 Revisited
Bob Dylan The Basement Tapes Complete: The Bootleg Series 11
Brian Eno Another Green World
Such a great record. 14 tracks, five with vocals. The album is perfectly balanced. The first of many great Eno albums. If you like David Bowie's album "Low", you will appreciate Another Green World.
Brian Eno Lux
Brian Eno Ambient 4: On Land
Brian Eno Eno Box I: Instrumental
A fantastic introduction to Eno's ambient work. It also has the Music for Films 1976 tracks as an added bonus. Might be hard to find nowadays.
Brian Eno and Jon Hassell Fourth World, Vol 1: Possible Musics
Burial Untrue
Cabaret Voltaire The Conversation
A mind blowing release! A quadruple LP release. The track "Project" is almost one hour long. A great electronic album that ranks with other 1994 electronic albums like Autechre "Amber" and Aphex Twin Ambient II. If you like those two artists, give this album a go
Cabaret Voltaire The Crackdown
Initial LP releases came with a bonus 12". This is the release to own. The 12" is an electronic masterpiece - two of the tracks are very ambient. The main LP is also very good. Much more commercial and 80s sounding compared to their previous release (12 x 45). A dark electronic album
Cabaret Voltaire 2x45
A fantastic release. More two 12' than a full album (2 x 45 is an apt title). The first disc is the final recording with Watson, whose found tape sounds were so essential to their earlier releases. He doesn't disappoint on his final outing - Yashar has most probably Cabaret Voltaire's most famous found tape "There's 70 Billion people out there. Where are they hiding?" The second 12" is just as good. Could be Cabaret Voltaire's most "rock" album.
Cabaret Voltaire Red Mecca
Often regarded as their best release. Not my very favourite, but in my top three for four Cab albums. A very well structured and cohesive album which has obviously had a lot of time and care put into the recording. Best played as a whole album.
Cabaret Voltaire The Voice of America
Even better than their debut. Found tapes dominate the opening tracks. More structured than "Mix-up" but still very experimental. The stand out track is "Obsession"
Cabaret Voltaire Mix-Up
What a debut! A collage of tape loops, keyboards, guitars, bass, vocals and percussion. Very experimental and has aged so well. Not an easy listen, but enjoyable all the same

Fripp and Eno The Equatorial Stars
An absolutely stunning release. Up there with the previous two Fripp/Eno albums, yet very different. This album is more ambient than the 70's releases. A great album to read to.
Fripp and Eno No Pussyfooting
I can't imagine what the reaction to this album would have been like in 1973. It is so different than any release of its time (or any time really). Fripp would have to be one of the greatest guitarists of all time. This album is so experimental and weird, yet oddly listenable. The recent CD release has an extra disc with a half-speed version of "Heavenly Corporation" which makes a great 40 minute ambient piece. The bonus disc also has both tracks in reverse. Find this double CD and buy it.
Fripp and Eno Evening Star
More structured than No Pussyfooting. Side one is five shorter pieces and side two is one ling piece - "An Index of Metals". Index of Metals is a very structured piece and is lovely, the best piece recorded by Fripp/Eno. A beautiful album.
Gang of Four Solid Gold
In my teenage years this was my favourite album of all time. There's not a bad track. Love the upfront funky bass and edgy guitar sound. Today it still sounds great. It is one of the great new wave albums that is far superior to their debut album.

Herbie Hancock Crossings
A fantastic jazz fusion album. Three tracks - a side long piece and two tracks on side two. Love the electronic angle. This album is the middle release of one of the great trilogies in jazz - Mwandishi (1971), Crossings (1972), Sextant (1973).
Herbie Hancock Sextant
My favourite of the great Herbie jazz fusion trilogy. The use of mellotron is the clincher.
Husker Du Zen Arcade
A hardcore band releases a double concept album in 1984. A risky move, but they pulled it off. So many great songs, especially "Pink Turns to Blue" and "Never Talking to You". A must listen album.
John Coltrane Olé Coltrane
One of the great Coltrane albums. The track "Ole" starts off with a killer bass riff. This album is a harder sound than "My Favourite Things" but I think that is what makes me go back to "Ole" on a regular basis. If you like Coltrane, get this album.
John Coltrane A Love Supreme
John Lennon John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band
Joy Division Closer
Joy Division Unknown Pleasures
Karlheinz Stockhausen Hymnen
What an album! The first great electronic album - a massive four sides of vinyl. It is a raw and brutal electronic journey with moments of intense beauty. There is a section midway through side 3 that feels like a decent to the terrors of hell (and I'm an atheist). I have cleared out a few parties with this album. It is definitely an acquired taste.
Kraftwerk Computer World
Mark Hollis Mark Hollis
Max Roach Percussion Bitter Sweet
Miles Davis Bitches Brew
This is the album that got me into jazz. My brother borrowed this album and brought it home one day and after about two bars in, I knew that I had to own this album. The next day I jumped onto my Raleigh 20 and peddled into town to buy it - a very happy moment in my life discovering this album. And as a bonus, "Bitches Brew" is great introduction to the wonderful world of jazz fusion!
Miles Davis Get Up with It
When I first heard this album I really disliked it. I was a big fan of Bitches Brew, On The Corner and Agharta, so I was looking forward to this album. It is so different from Miles's other fusion releases. A few years after my initial revulsion, I went back to this album and fell in love with it. "He Loved Him Madly", the first of the two side long pieces, is a stunner, almost ambient jazz. Another standout track is "Rated X" with its funky rhythms buried under loud dissonant organ chords played by Miles. This album requires time but it reaps rewards.
Miles Davis Agharta

This album sounds like a follow-up to Slint's album "Spiderland" - and I mean this as a good thing. It is a more subdued album though with Brian whispering his ghostly stories and the band is as spooky as ever. If you like Slint, you should definitely try this out.

The Young Gods Heaven Deconstruction
A remix ambient version of their "Only Heaven" album. This is a classic ambient release that is up there with Autechre and Aphex Twin. A must own for any ambient lover.

Brian Eno The Shutov Assembly
This is one of the most underrated Eno albums. A classic ambient album, solid from start to finish. I would definitely put this in my Top 10 Eno albums list. A must own for any ambient fan.
Brian Eno January 07003: Bell Studies
This is a wonderful release. Eno is one of the few artists that continually releases great albums decade after decade. The album starts with a 20 minute piece. I personally think that this track should be at the end of the album, so I usually skip it an start from track 3. The album has a bell feel, some of the pieces are very dark and done like while others are lighter and more bell like. It is a somber album, but I like to play it to go to sleep to.
Brian Eno Lightness: Music for the Marble Palace
This is a fantastic release and very under rated. Two 30 minute pieces. It is the best of Eno's installation albums. For those who like Brian's longer ambient pieces, if you can find this album, get it.

Cabaret Voltaire Micro-Phonies
More commercial than Crackdown, but some great songs such as "Sensoria" and "James Brown". Overall a very solid and enjoyable release with a great cover
Cabaret Voltaire Three Mantras
A very schizophrenic release. Western Mantra is one of the best tracks the Cabs every released: a 20 minute classic - a mix of Faust and punk. Simply awesome! However, the other side, Eastern Mantra is almost unlistenable - one of their worst tracks, with a backward tape loop repeating for 20 minutes and some noodling and random percussion thrown in. Still worth owning for the stunning Western side

Don't let the dodgy cover fool you - this is a very strong album that holds up to repeated listens. Jones's drum work is strong but all the musicians play to a high level. The only weak point in the sax riff on the final track.

When I first got this record I played it every day for about six months. It drove everyone around me crazy I think. Is is such a catchy album with lovely late 80's slick production. I lent my LP to a friend and he never returned it. about 10 years later he borrowed my CD of the album and he hasn't returned that copy either!

This was the first album I ever bought, I had other albums but they were pilfered from my father's collection (Pink Floyd, Focus, and The Moody Blues - not much for a 11 year old!). Primitive Man has so many great tracks - "Great Southern Land", "Hey Little Girl", "Street Cafe" andr"Trojan Blue" especially. I loved the production and the fact that Iva Davis played all of the music. This album still holds up and is worth a listen. It is a real trip down memory lane for me. Another bonus - Iva didn't have his awful mullet at this stage.

Side one of this album is almost perfect but side two is almost unlistenable. Streets of Arklow" and "You Don't Pull No Punches, But You Don't Push the River" are two classic Van songs.

Brian Eno Nerve Net
I don't understand why people hate this album so much. I grant you, it isn't Brian's best, but I find myself playing it a lot more than some of his other more regarded albums. When this album came out in 1992, it was quite original - it is a strange Brian release, full of loopy beats and treated vocals. Fripp has a few great moments as well. Not a classic, but worth a listen. If you like "Drop", you should give "Nerve Net" a go.
Brian Eno The Drop
One of Eno's stranger releases - 16 short tracks and one 30 minute classic. Some of the 16 short tracks are pretty rough, but some are top notch, very similar to some of Music For Films, but more electronic. The long piece, "Iced World" lives up to its name, you feel like you are trapped in an icy wilderness. This track alone makes the album worthwhile.

A patchy album from a patchy year - 1976 must be one of the worst years for music. But there are some really great tracks on this album, "Kicks" and "Coney Island Baby" are two of Lou's better tracks, especially "Kicks" - a real cracker of a track.
