1. Innervisions - Stevie Wonder

4. Before These Crowded Streets - Dave Matthews Band
5. Rift - Phish
6. The Score - The Fugees

Have to give a shout out to Bob Marley though, possibly my favorite artist but no single album that makes it straight through as strong as these.

An incredibly difficult task... this list will certainly change by the morning when the toxins wear off, but for right now... (and in no particular order)

King Crimson-Lark\'s Tongues In Aspic
Genesis-Selling England By The Pound

Psychedelic Breakfast-Bona Fide (Rufus kills!)
John Abercrombie-Timeless
Porcupine Tree-Coma Divine
Ozric Tentacles-Erpland
Blow Up Hollywood-s/t
Hellborg/Lane/Vinayakrams-Paris (DVD)
Umphreys McGee-Wrapped Around Chicago (DVD)

Ding Ding, we have a winner

You could basically load up this whole list with nothing but Ozric Tentacles and Hellborg/ Lane/ Sipe (Temporal Analogs of Paradise, Personae, etc.)

I also know Groundation, as I accidentally met one of the band members at a bar while promoting The Breakfast\'s trip to S.F. last March. He ran out to his car to give us copies of \'Hebron Gate\' after I gave him a Breakfast sampler.

yeah i sent you a mix awhile ago spacey.. it doesnt include any of \'We Free Again\' which is their latest disc, has some incredible tunes although not nearly the disc that Hebron Gate is. i highly recommend Hebron Gate to anyone who really enjoys a change of pace in classic roots reggae every once in awhile, its jazzy as hell.

Lexington -- same to you. :thumbsup:

Leith, I gotta get an explanation from you. Rush has so many great albums but exit..stage left is probably the worst. The song selection is great, but it is so over produced it hurts to listen to. There is almost no audience or banter audible at all unless you crank it and some of lexerts\' "live" solos were overdubbed in the studio. Live albums should not be polished and should not be a collection of songs from separate nights, they should be raw and ugly facts about what happened that night along the line of moe\'s "warts and all" series. My rush live albums in kick-ass order would be:

1. All the worlds a stage
2. Different stages disc3 (Hammerstien london 1978)
3. Rush in Rio
4. A show of hands
5. Rush replay (bonus Grace under pressure tour cd)
6. Different stages
7. R30
8. Exit... stage left

Rush in Rio was painful to put above a show of hands, but a show of hands has allot of over production as well, and the audience is just so damn good with Rush in Rio. Different stages can be broken up imo because it contains two different shows. R30 ranks so low because I have not fully absorbed it yet and it was so close to rush in rio which again had a MUCH better audience.

On a side, I\'ve decided I NEED to get some wilco. Everyone I know seems to like them and I\'m still yet to get any of their music.
