Another list to compliment the first

A Listmania! list by Musical Prevert "Will" (London)
 
Unknown Pleasures
1.  Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
The list author says:
  "As with previous list, I shall stick to one artist, one album. Phenomenal production (p'haps a tad OTT at times) but beautiful, haunting melodies arranged around a vast chasm of digital emptiness."
£5.57   Used & New from: £3.39
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (37 customer reviews) | 2 customer discussions

Electric Ladyland
2.  Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
The list author says:
  "Another example of ground breaking production and manipulation of sounds (a guitar caressed until it ejaculates a flute like tone). 1983 and Burning of... personal faves."
Used & New from: £2.92
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (44 customer reviews) | 2 customer discussions

The Velvet Underground and Nico
3.  The Velvet Underground and Nico by Velvet Underground
The list author says:
  "An excellent cross section of influences and a bizarre pallatte of genres and aural textures. European Son is pure punk, ten years premature."
£4.99   Used & New from: £1.87
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (44 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Selected Ambient Works 85-92
4.  Selected Ambient Works 85-92 by Aphex Twin
The list author says:
  "An album I obssesively sought and fantasised about for a good couple of years whilst it was cruelly out of press. Stunning dubby, ambient tracks, far more accessible than most of Twin's stuff."
Used & New from: £6.94
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (14 customer reviews)

Blonde on Blonde [HYBRID SACD]
5.  Blonde on Blonde [HYBRID SACD] by Bob Dylan
The list author says:
  "As a blues and Dylan fanatic I almost took possession of a heart attack upon discovering this rich tapestry of solid blues, boasting of course Dylan's apparently cryptic lyrics."
Used & New from: £14.00
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (67 customer reviews)

Giant Steps
6.  Giant Steps by John Coltrane
The list author says:
  "Initially a be-bop purist I've fallen big time for prog. jazz, and this is the cusp of it. Blue Train shall have to inhabit another list. Also adore the art work."
£7.99   Used & New from: £2.79
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (15 customer reviews)

Charlie Parker With Strings: The Master Takes
7.  Charlie Parker With Strings: The Master Takes by Charlie Parker
The list author says:
  "Stunning prodution quality, thanks to Granz, and beautiful, seedy orchestral sections compliment Parker's ridiculously incomperable sax. playing."
£17.06   Used & New from: £6.52
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (4 customer reviews)

Bummed
8.  Bummed by Happy Mondays
The list author says:
  "I love this band and their music for many and various reasons, but as space is limited I shall list Hannett's ingenious manipulation of pretty shoddy raw materials and that the music makes me happy."
Used & New from: £7.17
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

Pre Millennium Tension
9.  Pre Millennium Tension by Tricky
The list author says:
  "I adore all of Tricky's work, but this album gets my vote if only for Bad Dream, where Martine raps robustly masculine lyrics over a dirty driving bassline. Another show of tricky's twisted femininity"
£2.99   Used & New from: £0.48
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (6 customer reviews)

The Chronic
10.  The Chronic by Dr. Dre
The list author says:
  "Another stunning start to finito album with many temporal happy memories attached. Stranded on death row is also perhaps the finest hip-hop tune extant."
Used & New from: £4.23
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (33 customer reviews)

The Shape Of Jazz To Come
11.  The Shape Of Jazz To Come by Ornette Coleman
The list author says:
  "Persevere and you shall be rewarded richly. Bejewelled music that cuts right through all the accumilated s**t and p**s of existence and allows one a brief glimpse of purity"
£5.47   Used & New from: £3.79
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (18 customer reviews)

Monk's Dream
12.  Monk's Dream by Thelonious Monk
The list author says:
  "I was fortunate enogh to acquire a number of 80's Riverside repressing, incl. all Monk. This is the best of the bunch - fresh but it still swings, man."
£9.30   Used & New from: £6.86
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

Mingus Ah Um
13.  Mingus Ah Um by Charles Mingus
The list author says:
  "I was put off Mingus because I saw a violently pretentious individual purchasing one of his albums last fall, but how idiotic I was. Mingus is the s**t.."
£3.49   Used & New from: £2.22
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (12 customer reviews)

Martin Scorsese Presents The Blues
14.  Martin Scorsese Presents The Blues by Various Artists
The list author says:
  "Very consistent compliation. 125 odd tracks, well chosen, although an inexcusable absence of Leadbelly. Sort it aht, Mart."
Used & New from: £44.95
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (4 customer reviews)

Refried Food Vol.1: Ninja Tune - Refried Not Rehashed
15.  Refried Food Vol.1: Ninja Tune - Refried Not Rehashed by DJ Food
The list author says:

Used & New from: £0.49
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (2 customer reviews)

Logical Progression
16.  Logical Progression by L.T.J. Bukem
The list author says:
  "The album that turned me into a drooling drum and bass fanatic. My spine arched wantonly upon first hearing JMJ & Flytronix  b'line and I abandoned homework and constructed a large jazz tab."
Used & New from: £13.27
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (11 customer reviews)

Ill Communication
17.  Ill Communication by Beastie Boys
The list author says:
  "Loads of wicked tracks. They're never boring, never pretentious (as so much indie-rap unknowingly is (too f'ing dense to know they're s**t))."
£6.99   Used & New from: £3.17
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (8 customer reviews)

Straight Outta Compton
18.  Straight Outta Compton by N.W.A.
The list author says:
  "Incl.s more good tracks than I can mention, and what a terrible loss the inimitable Ice Cube was to the group!"
Used & New from: £1.14
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (10 customer reviews)

Lethal Injection: Remastered
19.  Lethal Injection: Remastered by Ice Cube
The list author says:
  "How the hey the average customer dare rate this 4* is quite beyond me. Sid Viscious was asked if he made music for the man in the street and said 'I've met the t-m-i-t-s and he's a c**t'. I agree."
£7.99   Used & New from: £1.23

Paid In Full - Deluxe Edition
20.  Paid In Full - Deluxe Edition by Eric B. & Rakim
The list author says:
  "So good. Funky, rich, extremely well produced hip-hop but still robustly old-school."
Used & New from: £11.99

Beethoven: Piano Concertos Nos 1-4
21.  Beethoven: Piano Concertos Nos 1-4 by Ludwig van Beethoven
The list author says:
  "Ideally you want the Gilels/Shzell version, but this is still great. 2nd movement, 1st concerto makes me question my atheism (as did the Blackstreet 'No Diggity' video, all those years ago)"
Used & New from: £9.99

Hard Normal Daddy
22.  Hard Normal Daddy by Squarepusher
The list author says:
  "Superb, innovative music. Love it for the fractured jazz of digitally created aspectsbut mainly for the chaotic but elegantly structured mind-f**k techno of Chin Hippy"
£10.19   Used & New from: £2.76
3.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (7 customer reviews)

The Clash (UK Version)
23.  The Clash (UK Version) by The Clash
The list author says:
  "Another consistently good punk album from that essentially weird entity - a punk band who can play. A punk bands inabilityto do so is, apparently, the ultimate anti-statement. Yeah."
£4.49   Used & New from: £2.52
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (36 customer reviews)

Black Sunday
24.  Black Sunday by Cypress Hill
The list author says:
  "Love the Hill for so many reasons, but the integrity of their sampling is probably my foremost. That jarring little dub sample on track 13 is simply inspirational."
£2.99   Used & New from: £0.16
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (9 customer reviews)

Catch A Fire
25.  Catch A Fire by Bob Marley
The list author says:
  "'t would've been to p**s in the eye of music lovers and indeed love of music generally to not include some Robert Nester. Of the Blackwell cycle this is the best - Midnight Ravers is phenomenal."
£5.77   Used & New from: £4.52
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (5 customer reviews)
