Good music from the past (not included in my other lists)

These boys created punk-rock long before The Sex Pistols
New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84)New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84) by Simple Minds
Buy new: £3.98 / Used from: £7.83
This one is great, they were so inspirated, they played an original music with original sounds. Forget erything they produced after. Also the previous CDs were good, but not like this one
BenefitBenefit by Jethro Tull

Great songs, a lot of musical fantasy, great players
American PieAmerican Pie by Don McLean
Buy new: £7.79 / Used from: £0.97

He knew how to create musical images
Live And DangerousLive And Dangerous by Thin Lizzy

Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £0.35
I've got only a few hip-hop CDs: this is the one I prefer
WarWar by U2
Buy used from: £0.81
Their perfect album. They were young, not famous yet, and their music was so fresh, rough and full of energy
MudhoneyMudhoney by Mudhoney
Buy used from: £6.50
They were so wild and rough
DeclarationDeclaration by Alarm
Buy used from: £31.63
Combat folk-rock, playd with a lot of passion; I think this is the only good album they've made, in the others they've lost themself. But this one is really good
Impact LiveImpact Live by UFO
Buy new: £10.98
In the third CD there's an old performance with a not-so-good sound but incredibly rough and "real". The audience is small (as I prefer). MS makes some errors, but he is so direct and powerful...
Tokyo TapesTokyo Tapes by Scorpions
Buy new: £7.79 / Used from: £5.79
If you know only the rubbish they've produced from 1985 on, you'll be surely surprised of how great they were in the Uli Jon Roth era
Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and ThymeParsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel
Buy new: £16.09 / Used from: £6.52
Music coming from the brain, passing through the heart and directed to the soul. All their CDs are wonderful, you can only choose. Maybe a collection could let you discover all their many gems
Lovers RockLovers Rock by Sade
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £0.90
High class music
LoveLove by The Cult
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £3.99

An incredible album, I wonder how they could have created it
WretchWretch by Kyuss
Buy new: £6.58 / Used from: £3.75
The perfect stoner-rock band. Also their other CD are great (even if the music is a little too much the same)
Veedon FleeceVeedon Fleece by Van Morrison
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £4.44
This is the one I prefer in his huge discography. Very dreamy, it would make you feel to be in an Irish grass (like Van in the cover)
The IdiotThe Idiot by Iggy Pop
Buy new: £3.98 / Used from: £2.78
Produced by Bowie, in this CD he created violent atmospheres rather than the usual energy, and the result is gorgeus
Breakfast in AmericaBreakfast in America by Supertramp
Buy used from: £5.51
A perfect album: perfect music, perfect lyrics, perfect songs
AmericaAmerica by America
Buy new: £6.68 / Used from: £4.00

The pure hippy spirit and sound. A masterpiece
Ultramega OkUltramega Ok by Soundgarden
Buy new: £12.18 / Used from: £5.93
Music like stone on your head. Also Louder tha Love was great, maybe there was too much Black Sabbath in it. And Cornell's voice... incredible.
