Rainbow :: Rainbow Rising

absolutley brilliant album....also the Live on stage double LP

 

[llllllll]

Slight leaning towards the early 70's here:

T.Rex - Electic Warrior
Wizzard - Wizzards Brew
The Kinks - Are the Village Green Presevation Society
David Bowie - Diamond Dogs
Sparks - Propaganda

Deeply uncool, but Electric Light Orcestra's self titled debut is amazing.

My personal favorite: T-Rex - Zinc Alloy and the Hidden Riders of Tomorrow..... bit of a marmite album, but if you get it it's incredible.

 

[Twenty Inch]

Rickie Lee Jones eponymous album.

Tom Waits - Swordfishtrombone, The Heart of Saturday Night.

Taj Mahal's eponymous first album.

Canned Heat - Boogie with Canned Heat

Junior Walker and the AllStars - Roadrunner

Warren Zevon - Bad Luck Streak at Dancing School

MumiyTroll - Memuari

Killers - Hot Fuss
Sarah Maclachlan - Surfacing

G'n'R - Appetite for Destruction
Pogues - Rum, Sodomy and the Lash


Alex - Propaganda, oh yes! Cracking album.
