Joe- You're killing me here. Too much of my mis-spent youth was at Feat concerts.Originally Posted by Joe Mioux
Cannot argue with Feats Don't Fail Me. But I cannot walk away from Dixie Chicken, either - for studio albums. I'm torn. Live - Fat Man in the Bathtub from Waiting for Columbus is at the top of my list as #1 recorded song ever.
Boss - Born To Run, of course.
Jim T is in there also with Aqualung [the other half of my mis-spent youth was Tull concerts] and Blind Faith.
And Prashun - Ziggy. Definitely. Back in the vinyl days. Wore out - literally WORE OUT - two copies.
You non-heavy-metal guys are in the zone.

seeing bob dylan on there made me think about I usually hate remakes of songs.. but I love knocking on heavens door by bob and also like the version by gnr just as much... so different but so good...

In no particular order:
Guns 'n Roses: Appetite for Destruction
Metallica: Ride the Lightning
Nightwish: Once
Disturbed: Invincible
Led Zeppelin: Led Zeppelin IV
Ask me in ten minutes, and I'll probably have a different list.
Cheers,

If you only took one trip to the hardware store, you didn't do it right.

GNR did whole album of remakes, The Spagetti Incident. I liked all the covers, especially a T-Rex number, Buick McCaine (sp?). I liked their take on Live and Let Die too (I didn't really care for the original Wings version).
I think the best remake album is Acid Eaters by the Ramones.

I've got too many favorites to pick just five, but if I had to go on a long car trip with only these five I'd be just fine.

I gotta give an honorable mention to:
Meatloaf - Bat out of Hell

I wanted to say Kansas earlier, but I couldn't think of an album name and I think my kansas albums are best ofs.
Kansas had a huge influence on progressive metal, which I left out of my list of albums, but which to me is the music that gets old the fastest.
For the non-metal heads, progressive metal is way different than progressive jazz, and much more melodic than the metal most people are used to.
