 | Live At Leeds by The Who
Buy new: £8.98 / Used from: £8.23 The best live album I've ever heard! Masterful. The recording was cleaned up and sounds incredible. My life would be perfect if there was footage of this concert on DVD.
|
 | Live At The Isle Of Wight Festival 1970 by The Who
Buy used from: £13.00 Absolutely fantastic - the Who nearly at their best live in my opinion - absolutely scorching! Keith Moon was my personal hero when it came to drummers. Utterly incredible to watch and listen to.
|
 | Who's Next by The Who
Buy new: £6.38 / Used from: £2.37 Another favourite Who album - truly they are one band who I couldn't have lived without - until the death of Keith Moon, that is.
|

Buy new: £6.48 / Used from: £0.39 I love this band. Fantastic live and lots of cracking tunes - also, a very nice bunch of fellas!
|
 | The Essential by Janis Joplin

|
 | Over-Nite Sensation by Frank Zappa & the Mothers
Buy new: £12.69 / Used from: £25.65 Frank Zappa - creative genius. Nothing more to say.
|

Buy new: £3.98 / Used from: £1.94 Joni...she has probably had the most influence on my own vocal style.
|
 | Underneath The Stars by Kate Rusby

 | Rachmaninov: Piano Concerto No.2

|
 | The Essential Billie Holiday by Billie Holiday
Buy new: £3.98 / Used from: £3.00 I'm surprising myself by how many female vocalists are on this list. Although I'm a singer, I've always liked noisy rock bands!
|
 | The Seldom Seen Kid by Elbow
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £3.06 I love this album. Not sure how they're going to follow it though...
|
 | Live at Montreux 1982 & 1985 by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble

 | Mustt Mustt by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £2.47 Sorely missed Qawwali singer. Incredible voice.
|
 | Solid Air by John Martyn
Buy used from: £5.70 John Martyn, what a songwriter. Mad as a mongoose, but some of his songs reached such a level of majesty and grace. Almost anything by him could go here.
|
 | I.C.H.I.L.E by Cantaloop
Buy new: £4.96 / Used from: £8.86 One of the best live bands I know. Fantastic guys, great songs, INCREDIBLE live...go see them!
|
 | P.S. by Andy Sheppard & John Parricelli
Buy new: £7.98 / Used from: £5.00 LOVE this guy. He inspired me to take up the tenor sax and I'm so glad I did.
|
 | Relentless by Bill Hicks
Buy new: £7.48 / Used from: £5.00 Not music, but it IS an audio CD so I'm using that as license to include the marvellous Bill Hicks who made me laugh and cry in equal measure. The world is a poorer place without him.
|
 | You (Radio Gnome Invisible, Pt. 3) by Gong
Buy new: £5.78 / Used from: £4.00 Haha! Gong. I could have picked a great many of their albums, but this is still great and I still love it after all these years.

|
 | Once More With Feeling: Singles 1996-2004 by Placebo
