    Hard to fathom that 1or both of Physical Graffiti or Quadrophenia wouldn't be top 10. I'll remind myself as I often do that music is a subjective thing. And thanks for the link to that site



    You can't put Physical Graffiti ahead of ZepIV, 
    Ummnnnn no.

    Achtung Baby

    That's my choice for best album of the 90's (yes, even including PJ, sorry). It's just about perfect.

    If only for Sweet Lew and Gremmie Out of Control... I would agree, but those always get skipped.

    Three is the least I can limit it to...
    Pearl Jam - Pittsburgh, PA 09-05-00
    U2 - The Joshua Tree
    Rush - Different Stages
    Not sure what my thought process was here.  I'm guessing I was going with "what three albums would I take on a deserted island" because I could certainly listen to those all the time.  But best album of all time?  The Joshua Tree is the only one really fitting that criterium.

    The Police - Outlandos, Zenyatta, or Synchronicity
    Michael Jackson - Thriller
    Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
    AC/DC - Back in Black
    Steely Dan - Can't Buy A Thrill

    I don't know which I'd choose of those for the single best all time album.  It'd most likely be between The Joshua Tree and one of The Police albums... but I don't know.  I can't choose.
    Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24
