Album of 1991 (Part III)

[NorfolkWhite]

I was backstopping the Pixies, best album of the eighties full stop let alone 88 imo, and the launch pad for so many bands including Nirvana in the nineties.

I'll take NWA 'Straight Outta Compton' - another seminal and massively important album

Can't disagree on Pixies or NWA, both influenced so much of what followed and brilliant in their own way.

Going to 'fess up here - I've seen him live Some 80's Reload festival - The Beat and Boomtown Rats were on the bill as well - which is why I went........honest.

I did a festival and watched Chesney Hawkes because he was in the bar, actually he was decent, took the mick out of himself too, seemed a decent fella.

Rick Astley was ok too actually, pretty self-deprecating, a few women still throwing knickers - he just joked that they are bigger than they used to be

U2 'Rattle and Hum'

[Irish Ian]

1988 Probably my last good year...

Queensryche Operation Mindcrime
REM Green
U2 Rattle and Hum
Magnum Wings of Heaven
Marillion The Thieving Magpie

Are my faves but it has to be Queensryche as my choice.

Good album Ian.

Superb live band, as to be one of the best live voices I've heard.

I was introduced to them when I saw them perform Operation Mindcrime. I was blown away.

And I agree Geoff Tate has a great voice.


In fact he is scheduled to be playing a local venue in a few weeks, though I am unsure how that can go ahead at the minute
