BLUENUT Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) Oasis won the Brit award for What's the Story Morning Glory, who would you have selected. Stones Roses by the Stone Roses for me Edited February 17, 2010 by BLUENUT
Maksimov Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) Does it have to be a British album or can I pick any album that's been released during the last 30 years? Edited February 17, 2010 by Maksimov
BLUENUT Posted February 17, 2010 Author Posted February 17, 2010 Does it have to be a British album or can I pick any album that's been released during the last 30 years? [/quote Not necessarily for this thread, although I think they may have been the criterea for the award.
Maksimov Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 Hmmm...it's a difficult one. I think I'll pick Doolittle by the Pixies.
Nibs Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 Sound Affects - The Jam (Just get's in as 1980!)
yorkleyblue Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) As you all know, it is my considered view that there has been NO excellent music in the last 30 years, but, my gut reaction to the question put was either Lovesexy or Sign O The Times by Prince, or Silver Side Up by Nickelback Nothing rivals the Very Best of Middle Of The Road though Kev Edited February 17, 2010 by yorkleyblue
The Brit Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 music for the jilted generation - the prodigy
Maksimov Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 Silver Side Up by Nickelback Hey, the last 30 years in music hasn't been THAT bad! ;)
BlueBeard Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 Can't believe that Oasis got voted best album of last 30 years!!! Here's a few that were better, in my humble opinion: - Dexy's Midnight Runners - Searching For The Young Soul Rebels (1980) AC/DC - Back In Black (1980) Motorhead - Ace Of Spades (1980) Stiff Little Fingers - Nobody's Heroes (1980) Iron Maiden - Iron Maiden (1980) The Human League - Dare! (1981) AC/DC - For Those About To Rock (1981) Kevin Rowland & Dexy's Midnight Runners - Too-Rye-Ay (1982) Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast (1982) Dire Straits - Love Over Gold (1982) Pink Floyd - The Final Cut (1983) UB40 - Labour Of Love (1983) Robert Plant - The Principle Of Moments (1983) Def Leppard - Pyromania (1983) David Bowie - Let's Dance (1983) The Smiths - The Smiths (1984) The Smiths - Meat Is Murder (1984) David Gilmour - About Face (1984) Dire Straits - Brothers In Arms (1984) Roger Waters - The Pros And Cons Of Hitch-Hiking (1984) The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead (1986) Roger Waters - Radio KAOS (1987) Morrissey - Viva Hate (1988) Gary Moore - Still Got The Blues (1990) Roger Waters - Amused To Death (1992) Gary Moore - After Hours (1992) Paul Rodgers - Muddy Waters Blues (1993) Pink Floyd - The Division Bell (1994) Gary Moore - Blues For Greeny (1995) Pink Floyd - p-u-l-s-e (1995) KT Tunstall - Eye To The Telescope (2004) The Kaiser Chiefs - Employment (2005)
Scott Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 London Calling - released Jan 1980 in the US. (Dec'79 in the UK)
loz Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 One day it is The Queen is Dead, the next it is The Smiths - either way it is a Smiths album.
mad_mac Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 If it was going to be an Oasis album I'd have gone for Definitely Maybe way ahead of What's the Story
Barry Bridges Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 DOGGY STYLE BY SNOOP DOGGY DOGG! First CD I ever bought :)
bjd Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 (edited) It's British albums only right, if it's a Brit award? Either way the list is an m.o.r joke. Morning glory isnt even Oasis' best album. That accolade goes to the debut , which to be fair is brilliant. At least Oasis did win I mean at least they have a bit of an edge or attitude. I'm just surprised it wasn't Phil Collins. No Smiths? Roses? New Order? Wheres Violator? Leftism? Hell, I'd even have 'Rio' in there above that lot. London Calling misses out by a matter of days by my reckoning... Edited February 18, 2010 by bjd
Tim W Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 Best album of the last 30 years, in my eyes would probably be In Absentia by Porcupine Tree Best album ever recorded: Fire & Water by Free always has been always will be
Eggy McMuffin Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 Would Fleetwood Mac count? They're not entirely English, or British even, but Mick Fleetwood is, which could get them to count? If they count, Tango In The Night... if they don't. Massive Attack - Mezzanine.
The Brit Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 If it was going to be an Oasis album I'd have gone for Definitely Maybe way ahead of What's the Story I agree with that
Ruh Buh Juh Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 Love, Ire & Song - Frank Turner. The best album I've ever heard from the last 30 years.
