Tell us three albums that you've never got tired of. I've been listening to these three for 35 years or more and they sound as great as ever:
Bob Dylan "Desire" At peace after the breakdown of his marriage, it's a much more comfortable listen than the brilliant "Blood on the Tracks". Hispanic flavours and wild fiddles. Incredible songs that get right under your skin.
Kate Bush "The Kick Inside" I've wanted to be her for most of my life. An incredible band, beautiful songs and Kate hitting notes that float like silver bubbles. It's an album that makes me happy I'm a woman.
Pink Floyd "Dark Side of the Moon" Don't really need to say anything, do I. Except its the single most important album of all time to me. I'm sure I'm not alone.
Yeah I'm an old hippy  what of it
Looking forward to hearing all yours  |

DJ Shadow - Endtroducing
that would be a classic album for me too, it never gets old does it! "
Astonishing album. I listened to it properly for the first time in a long while the other day. Definitely stands up to this day.
I think “genius” is really overused when it comes to music, but he definitely was/is a bit one. |

You're welcome, cariad Joni's Blue album is one I could easily have included. I used to be a DJ so "you turn me on, I'm a radio" is a very special song for me |

"Pink Floyd - The Wall. Listen through it every time I'm on a long dull flight.
Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin II
The Beatles - Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"
I've always liked II best and Sgt Pepper is one of the most important albums ever made. I love the echoes I hear of it in Noel Gallagher's music. |

Pink Floyd - Delicate Sound of Thunder. There is something about this group of blokes that will never be replicated or come close, and live they sound even better.
The Eagles - Hotel California, A studio album that is full of timeless classics
The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses. Not all agree but one of the greatest albums written and it just gets better the more you listen to it,my go music in the car and probably still influencing bands today |

"Sgt pepper
Rumours
Goodbye yellow brick road "
I've been listening to Elton's early albums lately, the songwriting and his voice and playing are so compulsive. I found a concert he gave in Central Park in 1980, it's absolutely fucking brilliant. Just amazing. He plays Imagine and within three months John was gone  |

Bob Marley- Babylon by bus.
Supertramp- Breakfast in America."
Every time I hear "breathe.... breathe in the air.." I melt like I did the first time. I sleep under a big canvas of the four of them. Takes a brave man to get it on with Roger scowling down at him |

It`s weird having pics of people looking at you. I know they can`t really see, But it still puts me off. Breath has to be the most relaxing song of all time & you forget that the heartbeat is always there throughout the album. |
