A Listmania! list by Paul
 
Revolver
1.  Revolver by The Beatles
The list author says:
  "Let me just say this list is by no means complete (see end) apart from Revolver being my favourite album (any of The Beatles albums here could be my favourite!) Pure creative genius."
Used & New from: £0.75

Euphoria Morning
2.  Euphoria Morning by Chris Cornell
The list author says:
  "Chris Cornell - such talent, stunning songwriter and amazing vocals. I cannot stress enough how good this album is. Also check out Soundgarden and Audioslave."
£4.99   Used & New from: £0.48
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (34 customer reviews)

Abbey Road
3.  Abbey Road by The Beatles
The list author says:
  "Their last (recorded) album and a fitting finale. What's remarkable to me is the massive output of quality in just 7 years. They revolutionised music and we'll never see their like again."
Used & New from: £3.15

Highway To Hell
4.  Highway To Hell by AC/DC
The list author says:
  "The original kick ass rock and roll band! A guitarist's dream for unforgettable riffs. Unmistakeable mix of rock, blues and boogie make them unique. Dersevedly one of the greats. Best intro ever....."
£7.49   Used & New from: £4.97
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (64 customer reviews)

The La's
5.  The La's by The La's
The list author says:
  "This is a cracker! Fantastic songs - great melodies and vocals. Liked the way they stuck to short songs (leave 'em wanting more!). Gutted there were no further albums."
£5.77   Used & New from: £1.24
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (31 customer reviews)

Superunknown
6.  Superunknown by Soundgarden
The list author says:
  "Awesome album... I'm not sure what to say except if you truly love guitar based rock then it doesn't get much better than this. Great songs, exceptional vocals. Play LOUD."
£5.57   Used & New from: £2.39
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (45 customer reviews)

The Traveling Wilburys
7.  The Traveling Wilburys by George Harrison
The list author says:
  "A 'supergroup' album that works... great songs, vocals and harmonies and you can sense the fun they had making it. The final track 'end of the line' made poignant by Roy Orbison's death shortly after."
Used & New from: £1.98
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (41 customer reviews)

Word Gets Around
8.  Word Gets Around by Stereophonics
The list author says:
  "Stunning debut offering. You can hear it's refreshing originality in the quality of songs and the enthusiasm of a first album. Kelly Jones is exceptionally talented. 'You Gotta Go There' is very close"
£4.39   Used & New from: £0.19
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (84 customer reviews)

Armed Forces
9.  Armed Forces by The Attractions
The list author says:
  "In the good old days of vinyl I just missed out on securing the fold out sleeve! Brilliant songs from a talented songwriter. First 'proper' album I ever owned (never bought a single in my life!)"
Used & New from: £4.98
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (8 customer reviews)

Love Songs for the Hearing....
10.  Love Songs for the Hearing.... by Dan Baird
The list author says:
  "Witty storytelling lyrics and energetic pumping country influenced rock and roll. Some stunning guitar picking and lead work. A gem."
Used & New from: £12.72
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (4 customer reviews)

Woodface
11.  Woodface by Crowded House
The list author says:
  "Neil Finn's one of the great melody writers, the lyrics aren't bad either! Some exceptional songs here that immediately immerse your senses (does that sound cheesy?!)"
£4.08   Used & New from: £0.01
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (18 customer reviews)

Rubber Soul
12.  Rubber Soul by The Beatles
The list author says:
  "A definite change of direction from the 'innocent' melodies of a Hard Day's Night and more mature writing of 'Help' to what was the start of the revolutionary Revolver/Pepper period."
Used & New from: £2.98
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (100 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Different Light
13.  Different Light by The Bangles
The list author says:
  "Not taken seriously by many but these girls are very talented. Some great songs with stand out harmonies. The original 'girl' band, the Spice Girls are a complete joke in comparison."
Used & New from: £2.25

Don't Point Your Finger
14.  Don't Point Your Finger by Nine Below Zero
The list author says:
  "Tight rock'n'roll at a frenetic pace! Fantastic harp playing and they're pretty hot at a spot of blues too. Music to drive to!"
£9.78   Used & New from: £8.99
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

Led Zeppelin IV
15.  Led Zeppelin IV by Led Zeppelin
The list author says:
  "It's all already been said about Zep and particularly 'Stairway'! Indulgent rock at it's best, killer riffs and just a thumping tight band. Just edges 'II'."
£4.87   Used & New from: £1.58
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (82 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

BBC Sessions
16.  BBC Sessions by Jimi Hendrix
The list author says:
  "The greatest guitarist ever. Period. If only there was more good concert footage!! 'Red House' from 'Hendrix In The West' shows this guy also felt the blues instinctively. Genius."
Used & New from: £4.74
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (10 customer reviews)

John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band
17.  John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band by John Lennon
The list author says:
  "Lennon's 'angst' project to exorcise some demons. Along the way he produces a phenomenally 'honest' album benefitting from the raw sound."
Used & New from: £4.43
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (41 customer reviews)

Hard Again
18.  Hard Again by Muddy Waters
The list author says:
  "Muddy's 'come back' album of 1977. It's pure joy and pleasure to hear one of the last legends of the blues recorded well and the enjoyment shines through this recording!"
£3.99   Used & New from: £2.56
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (9 customer reviews)

Couldn't Stand The Weather
19.  Couldn't Stand The Weather by Stevie Ray Vaughan
The list author says:
  "One of the greatest guitarists and a particular hero of mine. The first album of Stevie's I bought and what a turn on! A tragic loss especially considering he'd only been recording for about 7 years."
£4.99   Used & New from: £1.59
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (7 customer reviews)

Dark Side of the Moon
20.  Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd

Eliminator
21.  Eliminator by ZZ Top
The list author says:
  "I'll never forget hearing this for the first time at an impressionable age and it just blew me away! These guys can boogie! This is how a 3 piece band should be."
£3.99   Used & New from: £1.75
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (18 customer reviews)

Who's Better Who's Best: Very Best of the Who
22.  Who's Better Who's Best: Very Best of the Who by The Who
The list author says:
  "It's a compilation this time and no self respecting student of rock history should be without The Who. Townsend's another legend. One of the finest live bands ever. Part of Rock history."
Used & New from: £0.98
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

Van Halen
23.  Van Halen by Van Halen
The list author says:
  "A little cheesy sounding in places now but undeniably some classic tracks here and it was Eddie's emergence as a power guitarist. Roth's vocals are spot on."
£3.99   Used & New from: £2.96
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (41 customer reviews)

Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
24.  Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles
The list author says:

25 Greatest Hits
25.  25 Greatest Hits by The Pirates
The list author says:
  "Early British rock from another who died too soon. Amazingly 'Jealous Girl' is missing from this comp. Here's to all I couldn't fit in - Kinks/Small Faces/Berry/Cochran/Vincent/Holly/Bowie etc........"
£4.57   Used & New from: £2.39
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (6 customer reviews)
