This is difficult, there are quite a few songs off many of the albums I really like but the rest of the album is just ok.
There is a strange logic going in in my mind as to what I pick.
As the thread suggests, I’m going with my best three album run even though lots of the ones I’ve left out I prefer as a two album run.

King Crimson
The Stranglers
U2
The Cure
The Smiths
Echo & The Bunnymen
Led Zeppelin

Sorry Sara, silly me that was my fault, I forgot to change the log-in bit. Those votes are mine.

I wouldn't know any albums released this year , barring those from old punk bands still existing. Anything modern , or new .... haven't the foggiest so I would be pissing in the dark .

Really like the Manic’s, Ron……..but both yourself and Rook included a run with The Holy Bible in, which whilst many Manic’s fans will put at the top of the pile, I’d put it down near the bottom…..have never liked it. Much prefer their post Richie output.

I’d have gone - Know Your Enemy, Lifeblood (my personal favourite) and Send Away The Tigers

Could have just as easily had KYE instead of THB, but I love the other 2 EMG & TIMTTMY the most.

I didn't think I was dreaming it, probably why Cat of myself didnt nominate their run of three in the 60s.

A Stones nomination would have been high on my voting list,
