Erm.
I would not include greatest hits or live albums for the points you make. Also the songs will have been culled from earlier studio albums.
I am a little lost on art work though.
As an example Armed Forces by Elvis Costello was intially issued in a limited run with a fold over back cover...
Correct.
In fact is there a good Beatles track where Ringo takes the lead vocals.
I also doubt that where anyone has posted everything by >< there isn't a lesser track or two when compared to the best album by that group.
Yes we have to accept that everyone hears things differently but there...
What's not to like
A name check for Lauren Bacall
2000 flushes tv ad
A complete mix of diffetent musical styles
Anti war sentiment
But everyone has their own favourites
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - debut album
Steely Dan - The Royal Scam
Elvis Costello - My Aim is True/This Years Model/Armed Forces
The Clash - Combat Rock
Genesis - Selling England by the Pound
The Jam - Setting Sons
Paul Weller - Stanley Road
Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon/Wish You...
I would never count best of/greatest hits/the singles or live albums in this type of list as they are not albums in the full sense but complied from other albums
