    A lot of Beethoven too, especially his Fifth Symphony. :D

    And Orff's Carmina Burana.

    And recordings I have of Elgar's 1st Symphony and Dvorak's Slavonic Dances.

    And so on... :bolian:

    I was standing 10ft away from Scott Weiland singing Plush just 2 weeks ago.

    They played Crackerman, Wicked Garden, Creep, Sex Type Thing and Dead and Bloated too, so that's about half of Core.

    You know, I wouldn't put either of those on my list, but I would put Making Movies on there for sure. Man, that's a great album...

    Two Bruce Springsteen albums obviously make the cut:

    Born to Run
    Born in the USA


    Being a hard-core Springsteen fan, I could add a few others (The River, for example), but those two are pretty much universally loved albums, even by people who are only marginal fans.


    One from Pearl Jam:
    Ten


    One from Bon Jovi:
    Slippery When Wet

    New Jersey
    was very good too, but not quite of the perfection levels of Slippery When Wet.

    Damn there have been so many albums mentioned in this thread that I can't believe I didn't think of when I posted my first post!

    He still is. He must be doubling up, as he's still a member of Stryper.

    If you knew this, then why did you need to ask whether or not Boston was still a band? ;)

    Yep. I meant to edit that into my list and forgot. Thanks for the reminder. :bolian:

    Also a damned good album, but not quite as...perfect as the other two.

    We can agree on U2, though. :bolian:
