My favourite albums

1. Ten - Pearl Jam
• Features my favourite lineup of songs : Even flow, Alive, Black, Jeremy, Oceans, Release.
2. Led Zeppelin IV - Led Zeppelin
• The album that defined the 70's. Forget stairway- every track here is worth listening to on repeat.
3. Deja Vu - Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young
• Brings me back to the 60's. Aw hell, how would I know, huh? Features great harmonies, and masterful guitarwork.
4. Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
• The title track is the sole reason I got into Pink Floyd. Combine that with Shine On You Crazy Diamond, and you have a masterpiece.
5. Are You Experienced - The Jimi Hendrix Experience
• Hendrix was a genius, but lets not underestimate Mitch Mitchell, who really shines in Fire and Manic Depression. This is the greatest debut album of all time.
6. Electric Ladyland - The Jimi Hendrix Experience
• Apart from instant classics (Voodoo Child and All Along the Watchtower), I love the extended jam session in 1983.. A merman I should be. All the tracks which feature the word "rain" are excellent.
7. Bridge Over Troubled Water - Simon and Garfunkel
8. Legend - Bob Marley
9. Astral Weeks - Van Morrison
10. Axis: Bold As Love - The Jimi Hendrix Experience
11. The Doors - The Doors

• My childhood favourites deserve a mention. "Clocks", "The Scientist", "God Put a Smile Upon Your Face" are brilliant songs.
