What Are Your Favorite CD's/Albums?

High five on the Neil Young Omelet. I didn't notice it there before. Haven't listened to that in quite awhile either.

This is an all time favorite:

The difference between now and the 70s was the creativity of the artists. Neil Young, Carol King, Eagles, etc could literally fill up an entire album of music. Each song strong in it's own way. Today they are lucky to get out 1-2 decent songs per album. Even the so called good songs now are still crap

You talk about music today being limited and your defense from the 70s includes Carole King and Eagles? lol.

Just examples of 35 groups that put out full albums of great material. Today bands crank out one average song that you nitwits think passes for good music. A skull full of shit is shit.

Ommy, you have to realize that today's good music is not played on the radio. What you hear on the radio is mostly corporate rock and generally fills your criticism.

But there is lots and lots of music that is every bit as good as what came out during your era.

Here is a list of bands off the top of my head that are the real deal and have received almost universal critical acclaim:

Radiohead
Wilco
Beck
Avett Brothers
Nirvana
Rage Against the Machine
Jane's Addiction
Arcade Fire
White Stripes
The Strokes
U2
Kings of Leon
Flaming Lips
Pavement

No offense but I dont really pay attention to music recorded after 1985

That's the stupidest fucking thing I've seen somebody post on this forum. And that's really saying something. And why 1985? Because it was the last year for a decent Dire Straits album?

 

[Dogstar]

(Pretty much every album from Rush)

(Pretty Much every album from Pink Floyd & David Gilmour)

Barenaked Ladies - Stunt, Maroon
Tears for Fears - Songs from the Big Chair, Elemental
Coldplay: Parachutes, A Rush of Blood to the Head
311: From Chaos
System of a Down: Toxicity, Hypnotize
Scorpions: Blackout
Harry Chapin: Legends of the Lost and Found, Greatest Stories Live
Sick Puppies: Dressed Up as Life

I could go on with this all day really....

1985 was the last year Eric Clapton was relevant.

Behind the Sun was an excellent album. Still, saying "Music after *insert year* sucks," is just silly. I might as well not listen to anything after 1970 since the Beatles and the real Velvet Underground both ceased to exist that year.

Hey shit for brains. It's a valid statement because it is a preference, not a fact. Of course, good music was written after 1985 but less each year. I then had less interest in wading through all the crap on the radio as CDs were then prevalent and I was able to easily get at the music I wanted. So, I didnt need to listen to the Seattle grunge types and the droaners that were everywhere at the time. As the 90's and 2000s hit it because a wasteland of bad music. Not really interested in the moanings and wailings of a Bono

 

[FirstTimer]

Mumford and Sons last two albums have been awesome

 

[nvanprooyen]

The 90's were awesome.
