i said one album because i knew, and me as well, would have not only 30, but 100's of albums to choose from.
but there is only one that you keep on playing, whether down, happy or got plenty of time. naming more than one is too easy......come on chaps/lassies its not that hard.
Nah, not having that, plenty I keep playing, one of which has even been mentioned on here *! My favourite, right now and for a few years, is 'winter' by new model army, but on a sunny day, not so much !
*'Script of the bridge'.
In louder moments, 'living in darkness' by agent orange, 'damaged' by black flag, 'mush' by leatherface, 'let the tribe increase'the mob, 'failed states' propagandhi etc etc

At School I loved this one.
Watching that and this didn't realise they'd gone proper rock.
Fair play.

On the subject of albums...the best albums always had tracks that when you first heard, you thought, no...but on a few listens, a grower!
I really didn't like this track at all, far too proggy. Years later..wow! I worry that modern ways of 'consuming' music are not conducive to bands experimenting.

just listened to the whole of that tune, and liked it...
know what you mean about buying and listening to an album for the first time and not connecting with it.....
got a good few to re listen to.....
these 4 at the moment i did'nt like, but they've grown on me....
old mans child....born of the flickering. johnny marr....fever dreams pts 1-4 band of skulls...baby darling doll face honey tool....lateralus
over the years.....just started sorting out a few albums. a mixture of different tunes.
love the rolling stones new track......have'nt heard the album yet though.
Mine is pissed and benevolent. There now, melancholy to come!!
melancholy is a bit over rated . Benevolent had its moments, pissed is good although you cant beat a bit of open the fridge, slice a bit of cheese, dip a bit of humus , crackers, bit of ham mood.

Fair play.
They adapt, they change, they experiment, they aren't playing the same songs they were 30 years ago. One of the things I really like about them. Their new album is a live recording with a symphonic orchestra. The same track...
Looking forward to hearing the complete album, this track doesn't work so well for me as it's taken the urgency out of it.

simply does not exist for me as moods & associated genres change daily. I honestly don't think I could hand on heart place 1 album above all others
also having reached 55 I'm rediscovering old stuff and reassessing opinions, whilst still discovering new music.
but a great thread that has reminded me of some bands & albums to revisit
First album I ever bought has to be a contender, Axis Bold As Love by Jimi Hendrix.
Others would include:
Two from Terry Reid - River and Seeds of Memory Harmony Row, Jack Bruce Galactic Zoo Dossier, Kingdom Come Octopus, Gentle Giant In The Land Of Grey & Pink, Caravan Future Games, Spirit Disraeli Gears, Cream
Of the first five Metallica albums, Kill 'Em All is the worst but I'd put Ride The Lightning as a close second. I was a huge Metallica fan back in the day, like fully into them, but this album was always patchy.
I had a re-listen recently to confirm my feelings.
Fight Fire With Fire - hate the bit before the solo. Solo is average. Hate the guitar harmony bit. Main riff is good, drumming is good. Ride The Lightning - is okay. Solo starts bad, gets better, then gets awful. Is average. Don't like the vocals. For Whom The Bell Tolls - really plodding dull track. The only thing I like about it is Kirk's whammy stuff in the outro. So dull. Fade to Black - bent as a can of chips. I don't mind their acoustic stuff but this feels forced. Trapped Under Ice - pretty generic. Escape - embarrassing. Their worst song until they became a terrible band in the 90s. Creeping Death - feels like a Kill Em All track. Generic thrash. Call of Ktulu - I love an instrumental and this is good. Even Kirk is good on it even if he does fake those sweeped arpeggios. Although listening now, he's such a bad player. Ending is good the bit from 6:50 ish.
