Kashmir is, for me, the best track on a mediocre album (3/5). I know some people love it, and that's the great thing about music - there's something for everyone.

I don't like this. Like Steely Dan, I find it too clinical and soulless. (2/5)

I love the first cd, but I have only played the second disc once. I'm not a big fan of post 2112 Rush, except for some individual tracks. The first cd of Chronicles has all the classics and the other tracks that I like. Side 1 (5/5). Side 2 (2/5)

I really don't get Steely Dan at all. Brilliantly performed and produced, but I find their stuff soulless, clinical, and anodyne. I have heard most of their albums and have owned most of them more than once as I felt I must be missing something. Each time, I remain unconvinced of their greatness.

It's too hard, but if pressed, I'll opt for 'Woman From Tokyo', but there are classics on every album. Even Slaves and Master has one great song (Fire In the Basement)

Wings just about top the list for me...

Wings (5/5) Absolute classic
Fleetwood Mac (5/5) Absolute classic
Meatloaf (4.5/5)
Queen (2/5)

I was ready to quit, but then we went to Croydon.....! Mott the Hoople- Saturday Gigs

The Stranglers

1. Deep Purple (5/5) - All time classic album
2. Black Sabbath (5/5)
3. Led Zeppelin (4/5)
4. Aerosmith (2/5)

A great album. It's right up there with Dark Side of the Moon, The Final Cut and the Wall (all 5/5)

I love Deep Purple (favourite band after the Beatles) and I love Black Sabbath, so on paper this should be a real winner, however, I'm really not keen. Gillan's voice is great, Sabbath's musicianship is great, but the two together just don't work for me, and I find the songs weak (2.5/5)

1. Rory Gallagher (5/5) - An all time classic album
2. Lou Reed (5/5)
3. Robin Trower (4/5)
4. Boz Scaggs (2.5/5)

It's my favourite Rainbow album (5/5). Except for Stranger In Us All (3/5), I find that the quality of the Rainbow albums decline chronologically. Rising (5/5), Long Live.. (4/5). Down to Earth & Difficult to Cure (3/5), Straight Between the Eyes (2/5) & Bent Out of Shape (1/5)

I'm not a big fan of the Beach Boys but I do like:

1. You Still Believe in Me
2. Don't Talk (Put Your Head on My Shoulder)
3. God Only Knows
4. Sloop John B

Quadrophenia. While Who's Next has some killer tracks, I can live without 'My Wife', 'Getting In Tune'and 'Going Mobile'

Those first three Rush albums are excellent. They, along with 2112, are peak Rush for me.

Judas Priest - British Steel

I have two....

1. Learn the guitar or piano, not the flute.
2. There is no embarrassing music. Listen to what you like and enjoy it.

The Blackpool game was my first ever Bolton match. I ripped my cagoule and knocked a policeman's hat off whilst being passed over some railings to get near the front....!

The Beastie Boys
Paul Simon
Talk Talk

I was playing this earlier today. I love that twin guitar sound. A sadly overlooked band.
