Nah und fern

You guys are funny, this is right up there for me as well, but it's actually four albums.

No discounting the Gas influence on ambient techno though. (btw, how awesome is the Pole 123 set too!)

Autechre - Amber

Can - Ege Bamyasi

Magma - Trilogie (3 CD box)

Ozric Tentacles - Jurassic Shift

Miles Davis - Bitches Brew

All-time, alphabetically, and several could easily be swapped for other albums that I like just as much, so therefore it's not an absolute:

David Bowie - Hunky Dory

Built to Spill - There's Nothing Wrong With Love

Download - The Eyes of Stanley Pain

Misfits - Walk Among Us

Ween - The Mollusk

true dat, still, ditch Anvil Vapre and Garbage and its still a winner.

it was hard to pick 5 and order them correctly, i think i could do ten pretty easily though

boc-campfire headphase

boc-geogaddi

boc-music has the right to children

boc-twoism

boc-hooper bay

Not top 5 but something like that...

-BoC : MHTRTC

-Silver Apples

-Animal Collective : Spirit they've gone, Spirit they've vanished

-Skyphone : Fabula

-Telefon Tel Aviv : Fahrenheit Fair Enough

Very difficult, and this list really shows I was a teenager in the 90's..

But, to distill:

Stevie Wonder - Innervisions

Beck - Odelay

Portishead - Portishead

Pearl Jam - Vs

The Beatles - Abbey Road

Here's some gems that all bump up against the top 5 bubble:

Michael Jackson - Off The Wall

Richard D James Album

Squarepusher - Feed Me Weird Things

Blur - Blur

Stevie Wonder (pick any album from the 70's - definitely my favourite musician)

Tortoise - Millions now living...

Led Zeppelin II

Elliott Smith - XO

etc, etc, etc

Vespertine - Bjork

Deloused in the Comatorium - The Mars Volta

Frances the Mute - The Mars Volta

Seventh Tree - Goldfrapp

Downward Spiral - Nine Inch Nails

Way too much boc on these lists.

no such thing as too much boc
