I’m off on holiday tomorrow and will have basically no internet for over a week. So naturally I’m downloading all the media I can think of, just in case of downtime.

Thought it might be fun to solicit some musical suggestions from you lot to help expand my mind. So here we are. What’s your ultimate all-time #1 album?

My tastes are pretty eclectic* so feel free to suggest basically anything, and maybe I’ll update after holiday and judge what I thought of them all. Or maybe not, you know, that sounds like potentially quite a lot of effort.

Cheers in advance!

* mostly on the alternative / rock side of things but also love various kinds of dance sub-genre on occasion and of course the genre-that-isn’t-a-genre-at-all, Eurovision

    Obviously impossible but probably Music has the Right to Children by Boards of Canada or Journey in satchidananda by Alice Coltrane

      "Music has the right " is my current go to album while working. Not a big Boards fan, but that album is perfect for background concentration.

      “Beaucoup Fish” from Underworld is my go to if I need a pickup while working.

      To answe OPs question, one album I could listen to forever, would be hard but a coin flip between Radioheasd In Rainbow, and Burials Untrue

      I love BoC but I think if that was the only thing I had to listen to I would genuinely go mad. Mad in the ‘I keep hearing children talking to me backwards’ sense.

      Their Beautiful House In The Country EP is up there in my favourites of all time
