And more!

What about you guys?

[Heccubus]

NOT POSSIBLE.

[Bond]

Sorry, but what's not possible?

[Heccubus]

Choosing five albums out of thousands that make up my favourites. There's no way I can narrow it down that far.

[Bond]

Ah. All right, then.

[TheOrator]

1. Meat Loaf--Bat Out of Hell
2. Meat Loaf--Bat Out of Hell II
3. George Thorogood--Ride 'Til I Die
4. Meat Loaf--Dead Ringer
5. George Thorogood--The Hard Stuff

For most of my other favorite artists I got Best Ofs to see if I liked them and never got around to getting anything else. I like some of the Best Ofs better, like the Queen and the George Thorogood, but only a twat lists a Best Of as one of his favorite albums.

EDIT: Added number 5, and added some to the main paragraph.

EDIT2: Made first EDIT more descriptive.

EDIT3: I got the name of album 4 wrong, because the title song has a different name.

is this a joke?
i'm not usually a prick about others taste in music but seriously, you must listen to something other than shlock.

and that's with all respect to the first Bat out of Hell, which i listened to as a kid (minus the ballads). If Paradise by the Dashboard Light comes on the radio you can be sure i'll sing along. Todd Rundgren is good people too.

If i was trapped on a desert island with these records i'd envy Papillon.

top 5 (all assuming i'm actually trapped on a desert island):

Miles Davis - Bitches Brew
Animal Collective - Sung Tongs
Boredoms - Super AE
Sunn O))) - Black 1
Glenn Branca - Symphony No. 5

also assuming i have enough LSD/psilocybin mushrooms to last me until i'm mauled by a jungle cat or cats or crocodile or whatever other hunter is indigenous to the area.

Of course I do, schlock just happens to be my favorite. Of course I could list Monty Python Sings up there, or maybe something by Tchaikovsky, but Meat Loaf and George Thorogood are just my favorite.

I listen to bands as varied as Queen and Twisted Sister, and artists as different as Don McLean and David Bowie, but none of them really appeal to me as much as the overblown, orchestral experience of Meat Loaf, or the dirty, rock and roll feel of George Thorogood.

[Bond]

I've heard of Meat Loaf, but who's George Thorogood?

[reiner]

If i have to, I'd quantify based onto what I like to have on hand at any given time...

5. Flee the Seen - Doubt Becomes the New Addiction
4. Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf
3. V Shape Mind - cul-de-sac
2. Powerman 5000 - Tonight The Stars Revolt
1. Monster Magnet - Powertrip

[Bond]

1. John Williams -- Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
2. James Horner -- The Wrath of Khan
3. Klaus Badelt -- The Time Machine
4. Nicholas Hooper -- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
5. Black Sabbath -- Paranoid

[Dan_N_GameZ]

Heccubus, I think we can bend the rules especially for you, and you could at least give us some examples of your massive favorites collection.

[Heccubus]

Off the top of my head...

Alan Braxe & Friends - "The Upper Cuts"
Black Devil - "Disco Club"
Pink Floyd - "Piper At The Gates Of Dawn"
Black Sabbath - s/t
SunnO))) - "Black 1" (good call, Matt)
My Bloody Valentine - "Loveless"
Sonic Youth - "Daydream Nation"
Nirvana - "In Utero"
Wolf Eyes - "Burned Mind", "Human Animal" and "Dread"
Death From Above 1979 - "You're A Woman, I'm A Machine"
Lightning Bolt - "Wonderful Rainbow"
Blondie - "Parallel Lines"
Talking Heads - "Sand In The Vaseline"
Devo - "Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!"
Ramones - s/t
The Clash - "London Calling"
Aphex Twin - "Come To Daddy EP" and "Select Ambient Works 85-92"
Daft Punk - "Homework"
The Chemical Brothers - "Dig Your Own Hole"

The Cramps - "Bad Music For Bad People", "Big Beat From Badsville" and "Psychedelic Jungle & Gravest Hits"
Social Distortion - "Live At The Roxy"
T. Rex - "Electric Warrior" and "The Slider"
Led Zeppelin - "IV"
Converge - Every album from "Jane Doe" and on.
The Locust - Everything from "Plague Soundscapes" and on.
Melt-Banana - "Cell-Scape"
Foo Fighters - "The Colour And The Shape"
Dead Kennedys - "Plastic Surgery Disasters"
Minor Threat - "Complete Discography"
Operation Ivy - "Energy"
Deltron 3030 - s/t
A Tribe Called Quest - "The Low End Theory"
Beastie Boys - "Ill Communication"

I'm just gonna stop now before I get carried away. I should let it be known that every album I own is technically a "favourite" because if I don't like something that much, I usually don't keep it for long. So my "favourites" list is technically almost 2100 albums long.
