Albums That Float My Boat

A Listmania! list by IslandHoney "IslandHoney" (England)
 
Debut
1.  Debut by Björk
The list author says:
  "Housey beats, enchanting vocals..I saved up my pocket money for four weeks when I was twelve to buy this, and all my friends thought I was weird, but ten years on and it's still one of my favourites."
£4.69   Used & New from: £0.42
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (27 customer reviews)

London Calling
2.  London Calling by The Clash
The list author says:
  "The Clash make me proud to be British. The title track gives me pangs in my heart whenever I hear it, and as rubbish as that may sound, there aren't too many songs that will do that to a girl."
£4.99   Used & New from: £1.98
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (77 customer reviews)

The Fidelity Wars
3.  The Fidelity Wars by Hefner
The list author says:
  "I love Hefner, and this album is just the sweetest quirky indie pop in the world. You can't beat Hymn For The Alcohol in my opinion..it's just great stuff."
Used & New from: £1.27
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (5 customer reviews)

Moment of Truth
5.  Moment of Truth by Gang Starr
The list author says:
  "Awesome. Once again, the combined skills of DJ Premiere and Guru come together  with mind-blowing results. I like to think She Knowz What She Wantz was written about me. Ahem..."
£7.06   Used & New from: £2.99
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (6 customer reviews)

Lewis Taylor
6.  Lewis Taylor by Lewis Taylor
The list author says:
  "It's just so unique and dark and sexy, just how I want my RnB to be..none of this commercial pap. Bought this album when I was 16, and treasured it throughout my teens. Pure class."
Used & New from: £3.38
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (18 customer reviews)

Sunshine Hit Me
7.  Sunshine Hit Me by The Bees

£5.49   Used & New from: £0.98
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (15 customer reviews)

Pure Garage - 4 to the Floor
8.  Pure Garage - 4 to the Floor by EZ
The list author says:
  "We all know DJ EZ is the man when it comes to UK garage, and his mixing is awesome, but Todd's mix on CD2 is as close to perfection as you can get. Shut The Door is simply amazing. Please buy this."

Stars & Topsoil Collection
9.  Stars & Topsoil Collection by Cocteau Twins
The list author says:
  "Spell-binding vocals from the wonderful Liz Fraser. Always makes me wish I could decipher the beautiful sounding lyrics, instead of singing completely random things."
£6.49   Used & New from: £3.24
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (13 customer reviews)

Full on Vol.2
10.  Full on Vol.2 by Todd Edwards
The list author says:
  "On an equal par with Volume 1, no question about it, this is another funky, feel-good, wonderfully spiritual offering from the Toddster. It actually HURTS to think of a life without this music!"

The Specials Singles: the Best of the Specials
11.  The Specials Singles: the Best of the Specials by The Specials
The list author says:
  "My Dad played a lot of Ska when I was growing up and The Specials were favourites, although it winds us up a bit that to most young whippersnappers, this music goes hand in hand with Lock Stock.."
£3.99   Used & New from: £1.46
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (12 customer reviews)

Voodoo
12.  Voodoo by D'Angelo
The list author says:

£4.49   Used & New from: £0.01
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (29 customer reviews)

Wookie
13.  Wookie by Wookie
The list author says:
  "Just the thought of UK garage used to make me feel slightly ill, until I was introduced to the likes of this geezer. Wookie's sound is a world away from all the Mystique/So Solid tripe that's about."
£21.25   Used & New from: £0.49
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (5 customer reviews)

Suede
14.  Suede by Suede
The list author says:
  "I always remember thinking how perfect each song was,  what an understated and slightly depressing but beautiful little debut it was. An album it's impossible to tire of."
Used & New from: £1.86

Breaking God's Heart
15.  Breaking God's Heart by Hefner
The list author says:
  "A tiny gem. Witty and clever, self-depricating and true. I laugh out loud at some of the lyrics. Get back together lads. If not for me, then for the sake of the British music industry as we know it."
Used & New from: £1.72

Masters at Work: 25th Anniversary
16.  Masters at Work: 25th Anniversary by Masters At Work
The list author says:
  "Masters At Work are legends, and make music that, quite frankly,  floats my boat. Old skool house at it's best, and always with a positive message. It just makes me happy."

Innovators Series: Todd Edwards 4
17.  Innovators Series: Todd Edwards 4 by Todd Edwards
The list author says:
  "New York gospel choirs, soulful house, funky beats...Todd Edwards is the Master. Whack this in the stereo and be transported back to sexy summer nights in the early '90's. Oooh Baby is devine."
Used & New from: £63.79

Dreaming
18.  Dreaming by Kate Bush
The list author says:
  "She's unique. It's got to be said. And not only that, she's damn good with it. Kate Bush's albums have always got under my skin. She's fascinating, kooky and so extremely talented."

So Long So Wrong
19.  So Long So Wrong by Alison Krauss and Union Station
The list author says:
  "As Jim Bowen once said, you can't beat a bit of bluegrass. Alison's voice is as clear and pure as a mountain stream, the title track sends shivers down my spine. You'll want to take up violin lessons."
£6.99   Used & New from: £3.32
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (9 customer reviews)

Copper Blue
20.  Copper Blue by Sugar

Shawshank Redemption
21.  Shawshank Redemption by Thomas Newman

The Queen Is Dead
22.  The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
