So tough, Grace is a great choice when in a certain mood, live and dangerous when in another. Hmmm to many to choose Metallica Black is hard to avoid as well U2 so many to choose lol impossible to answer

I think I will always enjoy listening to the Velvet Underground Live 1969. I first heard a little bit of it when I was about 5 and I never forgot the little jingle then I heard it again years later and recognised it and found out who it was and years later I met Moe Tucker and it's just good.

Oh blimey so many to choose from...but if it had to be just one album...would have to be the extended version of The Liberty Of Norton Folgate by Madness - as a long standing fan that grew up alongside their music it truly is their magnum opus that finally made the world realise they were more than that funny band who made the funny videos.

Over the years "the one album" has changed quite often. Often enough that it's now down to one of 4 lol, depending on mood.

Dark side of the moon: Pink Floyd

Fade into light: Boz Scaggs

Lets get it on: Marvin Gaye

Into colour: Rumer

There and to the left a bit

"The Specials.

Great shout and if it were not for Madness' Folgate (see above) would be between The Specials and All Mod Cons by The Jam for mine.

It was the first album I bought back in 1982 or 1983 and I still listen to it regularly. One step beyond was my second album. I was a few years late to the party."

Yup listen to both of those regularly too still and you can add The Beat's "I Just Can't Stop It" to that to complete the hat-trick

Yep. Fantastic album. Wasn't Richard Hawley in the band? The lead singer had / has a great voice. Whatever happened to him?

Thomas Dolby, Hyperactive is one of my all time favourite songs. Yet I've never bought anything else by him.

What have I been thinking? Will correct that right now

"Smashing Pumpkins - Adore.

My go-to album for when I'm being a moody bastard. "

I'd choose "Siamese Dream", bit thats possibly because I'm slightly older and its a slightly earlier album.

I do love the sweeping desolation of "Adore" though. I think I was possibly 19 when it came out and for some reason it reminds me of that summer, and feeling out of place back home after I'd been moved out a year.
