A Listmania! list by noname "-kawada-"
 
Murmur + 4
1.  Murmur + 4 by R.E.M.
The list author says:
  "R.E.M.'s terrific debut is as essential as music gets. All of their albums are great (bar the most recent) but Murmur is an album you should hear if you have even the slightest interest in good music."
£8.87   Used & New from: £3.27
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

New Adventures in Hi-Fi
2.  New Adventures in Hi-Fi by R.E.M.
The list author says:
  "This is their rawest, darkest, hardest, longest and most ecclectic album. Possibly their greatest as well."
£7.19   Used & New from: £0.01
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (49 customer reviews)

Bone Machine
3.  Bone Machine by Tom Waits
The list author says:
  "Bone Machine is a brutal avante-garde blues album and my favourite by Tom Waits. If you've never heard a Tom Wait's album, buy one. Bone Machine is intense so Rain Dogs may be a better introduction."
£4.29   Used & New from: £2.97
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (11 customer reviews)

Nighthawks At The Diner
4.  Nighthawks At The Diner by Tom Waits
The list author says:
  "His third album was recorded in the studio but in the style of a live concert, full of hilarious anecdotes and great jazz songs. I love it's beatnik sensibilities."
£4.77   Used & New from: £2.52
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (19 customer reviews)

Small Change
5.  Small Change by Tom Waits
The list author says:
  "The follow-up to Nighthawks is an emotional and witty masterpiece containing Wait's greatest song, Invitation To The Blues. These two albums will increase your alchohol consumption, though."
£4.87   Used & New from: £2.50
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (19 customer reviews)

Lark's Tongues in Aspic: 30th Anniversary Edition
6.  Lark's Tongues in Aspic: 30th Anniversary Edition by King Crimson

£7.19   Used & New from: £6.00
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (12 customer reviews)

Red, 30th Anniversary Edition
7.  Red, 30th Anniversary Edition by King Crimson

4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (16 customer reviews)

In The Court Of The Crimson King (Original Master Edition)
8.  In The Court Of The Crimson King (Original Master Edition) by King Crimson

£6.89   Used & New from: £5.27
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (42 customer reviews)

Get Happy: Deluxe Edition
9.  Get Happy: Deluxe Edition by Elvis Costello

Before And After Science
14.  Before And After Science by Brian Eno

Selling England By The Pound

18.  Trilogy (Working Mans Dead/ American Beauty / Live Dead) by The Grateful Dead

£14.90   Used & New from: £8.94

Faith
19.  Faith by The Cure
The list author says:
  "The Cure's best album has such a downbeat atmosphere to it but it's not a depressing album, rather it's reflective. All the songs are great but especially All Cats Are Grey and The Funeral Party."

4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (14 customer reviews)

Bossa Nova
20.  Bossa Nova by Pixies
The list author says:

The Doors
21.  The Doors by The Doors

Stranded
22.  Stranded by Roxy Music
The list author says:
  "Roxy Music are a great band and Stranded is their best album. It's all over the place, mixing funk, rock and jazz with Brian Ferry's obscure vocal performances. Worth it for Mother Of Pearl alone."

Rant In E-Minor
25.  Rant In E-Minor by Bill Hicks
