    No More is one of my all time favourite tunes by anyone. Unreal.

    Eldorado brings back some memories too.

    RITFW is a classic as well.

    The album came out when I was going to university for my undergrad. I'd typically go for a 10K run after Sportspage at night (11:30). This album was perfect for a long, pokey pace.

    Reading Bono's excellent memoir lately has taken me back to my favorite music decade (the 80s, an era that also had some of my least favorite records and production tricks, but the good stuff from that era is phenomenal), and so I find myself spinning through their catalog starting with this, one of my all time favorite 80s records, Boy.

    Almost an impossible decision.

    British Steel or Screaming for Vengence?
    Blizzard of Oz, Diary of a Madman, or Tribute?
    Too Fast For Love or Dr Feelgood?
    Master of Puppets or ....And Justice for All?
    The Number of The Beast ot Powerslave?
    Appetite for Distruction?
    Paul's Boutique?
    *edit * Pretty Hate Machine?  Suck on This?

    Gonna say (today) it would be Tribute

    If live does not count, go Master of Puppets.

    How could you not choose Puppets over Justice? Too Fast over Feelgood? Defenders of the Faith for me. Piece of Mind. Lies. Pauls Boutique always.  Pretty Hate Machine is unlistenable for me today. 
    Pyromania
    Stop Making Sense
    Sign in Please
    Purple Rain
    Thriller
    Into the Gap
    Into the Jungle Groove

    Out of all these I would want Piece of Mind.
