[linespalsy]

I just have a few of those (though I'm sure my wife has a bunch more on vinyl or cd):

Pointer Sisters - Best Of
Michael Jackson - Off The Wall
Talking Heads - Remain In Light
Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense
Talking Heads - Little Creatures

Since you seem to be somewhat into glam I can't recommend Brian Eno's first two albums enough.

Here Come the Warm Jets and Taking Tiger Mountain...

[TylerDurden99]

I'll definitely seek those two out.

[linespalsy]

Another good band from that era is Slade.

[TylerDurden99]

My aunt constantly recommends Slade to me, I've just never listened to them, except for their original version of Come On, Feel The Noise.

Also, I see you have Fleetwood Mac's Greatest Hits, but nothing else. If you're at all interested in expanding your listening horizons in that direction, may I suggest any and all Lindsey Buckingham solo albums and Buckingham Nicks. Also the pre-Rumours lineup Fleetwood Mac album Bare Trees is fantastic.

Buckingham Nicks was never officially released on CD (though there are plenty of pirated CD copies floating around), and the entire album has been posted on YouTube, here:

[TylerDurden99]

I have a few Fleetwood Mac albums on vinyl, actually, I might post my vinyl list later on.

[Miss Vicky]

I have a few Fleetwood Mac albums on vinyl, actually, I might post my vinyl list later on.

That's a little surprising, given your age.

Cool though. I can't listen to vinyl anymore. My old stereo crapped out and my turntable isn't campatible with the new stereo. Not that it matters much since 99.9% of my music listening is done on my iPod. I don't even buy CDs anymore.

[wintertriangles]

That's a little surprising, given your age.Why? I have gregorian chant on vinyl, still not surprising simply because I'm young. Fleetwood Mac are pretty well known anyway.

Do you have Tusk, Tyler?

[Miss Vicky]

Why?

Not a whole lot of people of any age listen to vinyl anymore, especially not teenagers.

[TylerDurden99]

I inherited most of my vinyl records, but there's a few I've bought.

I'm not sure if I own Tusk, I know I have Rumours and Greatest Hits, and one other one that I'm not sure about.

[Miss Vicky]

If Tusk isn't in your collection, I recommend it. It's nothing at all like Rumours, but a lot of fans consider it their best.

[TylerDurden99]

I just checked and it's the 1975 self-titled album.

[Miss Vicky]

That one's good, too. Well, except for "I'm So Afraid." I hate the studio version of that song. When played live it's an absolute monster and one of my favorite songs ever, but the album version sounds like Buckingham's been neutered or something.

Look's like the full album of Tusk is on YouTube as well:

You would be surprised, records have been doing pretty well over the past few years and still rising, here in Britain anyway. We even have a massive record shop here in my town that's not having problems and still open and the nearest HMV shop to me has a whole section dedicated to 'vinyl'. Obviously it's not as big as CD and digital music but it's doing well.

I listened to records in my teenage years(and younger) thanks to my parents collection, still listen to and buy records. :)

[TylerDurden99]

We have a few record stores still up and running around the Brisbane area, but I mostly find mine at old Op Shops and charity stores.

[twisted_state]

Why on earth would you buy Gotye?

[Miss Vicky]

"Somebody That I Used To Know" is a catchy tune. I haven't heard the rest of Gotye's stuff, but I see nothing wrong with buying it.

This thread makes me want to post my music collection as well.

[TylerDurden99]

I liked "Somebody That I Used To Know", of course. I found it to be one of the only good songs to come out in the last few years or so. The rest of the album was ok, too.

[wintertriangles]

I liked "Somebody That I Used To Know", of course. I found it to be one of the only good songs to come out in the last few years or so.You mean on the radio right?

[TylerDurden99]

Of course. I'm sure there's a lot of more unknown music that is most likely great, but I'd rather stick with the older genres. Where I live, the only two acceptable genres are doof-doof and "screamo". I can't really stand either.

Is that your collection, Honeykid, or a list of recommendations?

[honeykid]

No, they're recommendations based on yours and posts made. :D

[Miss Vicky]

^I think he was being serious.

They read as suggestions to me, though he probably should've been more clear about that when he listed them.

[TylerDurden99]

I only got a little confused because of the cheesy grin smilie at the end.

[honeykid]

Yes it's serious. However, any list of recommendations with both Hendrix and The Doors should be pretty self-explanatory. Another, as I've just seen her, is Kate Bush's The Kick Inside.

[SnuffStuff]

Time for you to get into pornogrind.

[honeykid]

Listening to Portishead's Sour Times, reminded me of this brilliant 90's group. I only know, and own, the first three albums, but I couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Dummy (1994)
Portishead (1997)
Roseland NYC Live (1998)

[wintertriangles]

The third one is also worth hearing

[hapax_legomena]

Third is the best Portishead album.

[honeykid]

Another personal recommendation is Placebo. Again, I only bought their first three albums, but they're great.

[Lennon]

Tyler, you may like this band called Bright Eyes... They have the folksy sound to them, and they are actually one of my personal favorites...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqGqWRgNE70

Below is an entire stream of my favorite album by them:

And another one the band did:

+ rep for Toys In The Attic. That's a great album. Check out Rocks and Draw The Line, as well.

[Nausicaä]

The Cure - Disintergration

^ Very nice. :)

[TylerDurden99]

+ rep for Toys In The Attic. That's a great album. Check out Rocks and Draw The Line, as well.

What do you think of Pump? I was going to buy that one instead of Toys In The Attic, but the store I went to didn't have it.

[honeykid]

I like Pump and Permanent Vacation. There are some really good tracks on both, but I feel Rocks is a better album. I think Toys In The Attic is my favourite Aerosmith album.

[TylerDurden99]

I'll be on the lookout for some of those. I'm trying to get into Aerosmith again. I was really into them when I was a kid, but stopped listening to them when I started high school for some reason.

[TylerDurden99]

New Add-Ins:

Aerosmith - Pump
Aerosmith - Essential
Soundtrack - Star Trek: First Contact
Bruce Springsteen - 1973-2012
