You can do whatever you want mate

Are best of cd's aloud?

No. It's an unwritten rule that when you're talking about albums you're talking about studio or live albums.

Best of and Greatest Hits is cheating. We should be recognising discreet bodies of work rather than bits and pieces from a number of bodies of work.

Meh fine then..i don't really care, if people want to include greatest hits then good for them. I'd prefer not to add them as i agree with you about it..but if other people want to then oh well.

I am sure if I did this list again in 3 months a few of the titles would change but the artists would remain pretty much the same.

I find myself listening more and more to live recordings and I have been listening to a heap of Springsteen from his recently completed acoustic tour. Some bloody fantastic stuff out there if you can find it.

 

[Vandal]

Descendents - Milo Goes to College

argggh I can't believe I forgot that album! Classic

 

[Darky]

No. It's an unwritten rule that when you're talking about albums you're talking about studio or live albums.

Best of and Greatest Hits is cheating. We should be recognising discreet bodies of work rather than bits and pieces from a number of bodies of work.

Mostly agree, but live albums are essentially a greatest hits package too, especially the ones made up from various gigs as opposed to a single gig.

Here's my approximate 10, in no specific order.

Rainbow - Rising
Uli Jon Roth - Transcendental Sky Guitar
D.A.D. - Riskin' It All
Judas Priest - Sad Wings of Destiny
Megadeth - Rust In Peace
Iron Maiden - Killers
Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell
UFO - Force It
Scorpions - Taken By Force
Manowar - Into Glory Ride

Pretty tough to trim that down from 25-30.
