Sgt Pepper always seems to come top.  It's a tricky one.  I have a few suggestions: Revolver,  The Velvet Underground,  Rubber Soul,  OK Computer,  Ziggy Stardust,  Blue -  Joni Mitchell,  Low -  Bowie,  What's Going on -  Marvin Gaye,  Nevermind,  The White Album,  Horses -  Patti Smith,  Transformer,  Hounds of Love,  Funeral,  Elephant,  Mothership,  Dark Side of the Moon. 

Some unusual choices,  can't make up my own mind! 

 
Too many to name!

Anything by Led Zeppelin

Anything by Pink Floyd

Anything by The Doors.....the list goes on and on.

It mostly depends on my mood.

Today I listened to The Rolling Stones "Still Life"  from their North American tour.....I am not really a Stones fan but I freakin love this album. It was my best ever album....but just for today.  Tomorrow it will probably be Black Sabbath "Black Sabbath".  Everyday my best album ever is different.....

 
Some good choices. Sometimes I listen to an artist to death -  it's addictive.

Good choices. Ever since Bowie died,  I've listened to him every day. :/ 

 
Wow yeah this is a question with so many answers. I'd have to say some of my all time favs are Dirt, Alive, Nevermind, Life is Peachy, Great Southern Trendkill, Head Games...yeah too many answers :)

 
My best album ever for today was "Frizzle Fry" by Primus. I think Les Claypool may be the best/most underrated bass player of all time.  He plays the bass like a lead guitar!

@ElectroNymph  I watched the Ziggy Stardust movie/concert footage the other night on the Paladium channel and Bowie was simply amazing. He was a true rock n roll chameleon and kept changing his music as he matured.  I love his 80's stuff, yeah it was poppy, but it was also really good.   I was saddened by his death as well. 

 
Apart from "Absolute Beginners" and "Scary Monsters"  I like his more subversive 70's stuff,  also some good 90s, 2000s tracks. 

It would be boring if we all had the same taste though. 

 
I got a list! 

Leonard Cohen's:    "Death of a ladies man" / "Songs of love and hate" / "Old Ideas"     READ: "BOOK OF LONGING"

David Bowie: "Diamond Dogs" / "Low" / "Hunky Dory"  and I believe everyone should watch the video "Lazarus"  from his last album "blackstar" 

Lou Reed: "Transformer" / "Sally can't dance" / "coney island baby" 

Patti Smith:  "Easter" / "Horses"  READ:  "JUST KIDS" 

Hole: "Pretty on the Inside" (life changer for me) / "Live through this" / "nobody's daughter" 

Lana Del Rey: "Born to Die" / "Ultraviolence" - her latest is growing on me fast but "Born to die" could be my autobiography lol

I have a ton of others but I would take up this entire thread lol

I just want to say though, please listen to Klaus Nomi 

 
It has been one of those weeks...Grrrrrr  so my musical taste has changed to reflect the way I feel about things at the moment. My best album ever for today is Iron Maiden's debut album....Paul D'ainno's voice just brings out the metalhead in me.  I grew up in Europe and my formative musical years were spent enjoying all things Heavy Metal.  Iron Maiden brings back fond memories of foggy nights in Germany walking down cobblestone roads shrouded in mist and mystery.  Ahh the good ole days of a 12 year old Aint!  Its funny how music can induce such strong reflections of past things, good or bad, in your life.  I have such an eclectic taste that varies on my mood.....I love the Grateful Dead, went to approx. 40 shows, but I also love listening to Slayer, Black Sabbath, Traffic, and Widespread Panic....Sorta crazy when you think about it......I love me some good tunes:)

 
I was thinking about my favorite album of all time this morning when I was in the shower.  It finally came to me....An album that has everything you could possibly want....Love songs, mystery, intrigue, thundering drums, wailing guitars, lyrics well written and music that stirs the soul..  That album would be "Physical Graffiti" by Led Zeppelin.  From the old school blues of "In my time of Dying" to the yearning of "Ten Years Gone" this album has it all.....I love it and can listen to it over and over and not get tired of it.  I almost always hear something new when I listen to it....It also reminds me of my younger years smoking hash in the arches near the castle above the river in Heidelberg, Germany.....the good ole days!!  Its going to be a good day....I figured something out and it is only 8 am.  I hope this wasn't my only good realization of the day....I shouldn't have used it so early in the a.m.!

I was at the maiden concert in long beach arena in 84 they recorded part of Live After Death. I was 14, hell of a show. Piece Of Mind is my favorite maiden album. Dainno was great, When Dickenson took over it was kinda like Ronnie James Dio took over for Ozzy both were perfect fits

I'll go with Black Sabbath Heven and Hell, I love Ozzy but Dio was great on that album. Best metal ever made was the late 70s early 80s

You're like my evil twin, The Doors making you the evil one. ?

Just joking, good choices here. Don't forget about Van Hallen, Genesis, and oh god the list does go on. 

 
@VII Its funny you mentioned Van Halen.  I was driving around yesterday with my windows down blasting Women and Children First and Fair Warning.  Two of my all time Faves!  

@Mcsorley The very first album I purchased when I was but a wee aint was "Speak of the Devil"  by Ozzy Ozbourne....my Mom was not pleased when she saw the album cover and even less pleased when the double abum was opened exposing the interior pics.  I really liked it alot even though it did not feature Randy Rhoads. I love some Sabbath, whether it is Dio or Ozzy.  I think Mob Rules with Dio is one Sabbath's best later albums.   Dio was the perfect choice to replace Ozzy as was Bruce Dickinson.  I really dig all of Maiden's up until Seventh son of a Seventh Son.   I saw them two years ago in Raleigh, Nc and they can still jam.  That was a great show...Megadeth opened for them.  I am not a big Dave Mustaine fan but Megadeth was pretty tight.

 
@SaintAlien Interesting Bowie choices. It took me ages to watch Lazerus, as I was so choked up! 

Mine would have to be: Ziggy Stardust (a given in my book), Station to Station, Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps) and Low. 

Right, that's enough Bowie from me. ?

Now The Spice Girls!

Let me guess, your favorite Cohen song is "Everybody Knows", if so, it's mine aswell if not the best from him. His voice is so unique and fits the song so well.

It has a lot of meaning behind it aswell, I listen to it multiple times a week. 

 
One of my favourite more mainstream albums is 'Closer' by Joy Division. I like morose music, and some of the songs on this...just beyond words.

Lyrics from 'Decades' (I think): 'We knocked on the doors of hell's darkest chambers...pushed to the limit, we dragged ourselves in...'

Less mainstream, 'zrcadlení melancholie' by Trist, a Czech black metal project. If you want pure agony in musical form, listen to this...not for the faint hearted...

But of course, since I listen to so many different bands all of whom I love, it's next to impossible to pick one favourite...

Also, 'Steptacular' by Steps, legendary stuff...! (...yeah.)

  1. xenxra @ xenxra: @WTF7218 it may as well be that way with how little effort some of the people on here make to find information that's exactly where you would expect it to be.
  2. ontovzik @ ontovzik: When I had long term shingles, lasting two months. All he could give me was a 10 day supply of dilaudid. He looked at the ground while we were talking about it. I could tell he was ashamed but it was the legislature and the governor that tied his hands. He was very upset that non-medical political people, the media, and the scared public were controlling how he treated his patients. Someday those people will need meds and a hospital bed and they will be gone.
  3. ontovzik @ ontovzik: I had a great doctor, he had the true gift of a healer and he stayed on top of all the science. He straight up told me that for many people opiods work for managing short and long term pain.
  4. ontovzik @ ontovzik: He peed it in the snow in my backyard.
  5. WTF7218 @ WTF7218: @xenxra 😆😂. Yes, but only a few brave souls will ever find the number. You must first order a Dirty Shirley from the bartender. Then you must discreetly take the cocktail napkin from under your drink and unfold it. There you will find the map to the location of the phone number, and clues to decipher the code that it is written in.
  6. xenxra @ xenxra: he left his phone number scribbled in a stall at the pub three blocks down
  7. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar I would try one of those easy online ones .. reddit gives useful info about that
  8. Alkazar @ Alkazar: @NYStateofMind I dont really have a history of abusing things, my docotr is just really stingy. I am thinking of switching.
  9. C @ Cheesus: Thanks xenxra
  10. xenxra @ xenxra: @Cheesus yeah, use snote
  11. P @ psychedpsych: Trump is cracking down….
  12. P @ psychedpsych: Hackers are the scum of the earth
  13. N @ NYStateofMind: so it was easy bc of my history
  14. N @ NYStateofMind: I didnt really tell him but he knew I needed a new script since my dr went to jail
  15. N @ NYStateofMind: @xenxra I was on Adderall since 15 years ago so my dr prescribed that w no problems and then when I lost my best friend my doctor rxed the valiums but
  16. C @ Cheesus: Temp.pm down for anyone else?
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: @NYStateofMind my doctor's have always been pretty open minded if i can actually come in and explain the pharmacological action of the drugs im seeking instead of just telling them why i think i should be prescribed. the only time it didn't work out for me is when i was trying pharmaceuticals for depression ten years ago and suggested they let me try testosterone instead (turns out i was hypogonadal so they made a mistake denying my request at face value)
  18. T @ Testisthebest: Even down here in Florida when the pill mill docs all switched over to Suboxone and/or retired you can still find some pretty liberal docs but you gotta know what to look for. Mine does "pain management, detox, anxiety,etc. And no insurance. My doc writes me 60 5mg Valium, 14 2mg Xanax and asked if I had ever tried adderal to get more focus at work as I told him I run my own business.
  19. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar do they know your history? Like I dont tell my doctor anything about myself except what they need to know,...I was able to get my dr to rx the highest dose of adderall along with valiums ..... if they dont know your history or there is no history I would just come out and ask what is the reason for their mistreatment.... they have no problem billing your insurance or taking a payment for the visit
  20. T @ Turbo259: @Layne_Cobain Thank you fam
