favourite track of each of your top 20 albums

Ah come on! I want to add all tracks to a big playlist

This section, like the rest of this place, is now completely dead. Not even my long-awaited, much-anticipated (by maybe 2 people) DEBUT ALBUM could get things started again.

I'll have a go at this later. Love throwing a playlist together.

Time to hand over the keys.

You had an okay run but these are the words of a defeated man.

Rolli next.

What a strange top-20 ever, you have The Shins twice.

Pure facts.

Because 2 Shins albums are in my favourite 20 albums. These aren't my favourite 20 tracks ever.

Why is this strange? Do you not have a band that you love more than 1 album of?

I stated this then my browser crashed, SORRY. It's too much to think about & I'm not ready to commit to revealing my top 20 records all made by men mostly in the 1970s so fuck you & your thread Titch!

That's good enough

quirky picks.

prefer about 8 or 9 beatles albums to mystery tour.

same for satanic majesties.

Blue Jay Way is one of my favourite 'obscure' Beatles tunes. It still sounds very modern.
Both Magical Mystery Tour and Their Satanic Majesties are amongst my favourite albums by the Beatles and Stones
Good job Bill
Especially for Flamenco Sketches. That tune melts my heart

Thanks!
