All Killer no Filler - your favourite 3 albums

[WinkleHoff]

William Shatner "Transformed Man" is epic from start to finish. There is not a single track on here that doesn't blow me away.

[TurboTerrific9]

Marvin Gaye - What’s Going On
The Wedding Present - George Best
Rufus Wainwright - Want One

Special mention for Suede’s Dog Man Star and All Mod Cons

[zeb]

Primal Scream - screamadelica
Eagles - Hotel California
Quireboys - A bit of what you fancy

[Swervin_Mervin]

If we're talking purely no filler, then for me it's:

Tool - Fear Innoculum excl. the "deliberate" filler (it's still 75m long across 7 tracks without!)
Deftones - Diamond Eyes
Faith No More - Angel Dust

Runners up would be:

Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
Aesop Rock - The Impossible Kid

[Magnum 475]

Just three, that's tough. But I give you:

Marilyn Manson - The Golden Age of Grotesque
Mary Chapin Carpenter - Stones in the Road
Cesaria Evora - & Friends

(OK, a fourth.... ACDC - Back in Black).

Steven Wilson - Hand Cannot Erase
Rush - Moving Pictures
Porcupine Tree - In Absentia

Another Steven Wilson fan here but even Hand Cannot Erase can't quite make it into my Top 3 although I defy anyone to watch the Youtube video of "Routine" from this album and not be moved by it.

Picking a definitive Top 3 wouldn't be easy, maybe even impossible, but here are a trio of my "no filler" favourites...








Honourable mention...

^^^^^^ Nightfly was the last album that I bought on vinyl and the first I bought on CD.
And to think that that was nearly 40 years ago and yet it stands up against all that followed.

[Teppic]

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
Orbital - In Sides
Propaganda - A Secret Wish

[Mr Tidy]

David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust.

Foo Fighters - One by One.

Nirvana - Never Mind.

But another credit for Bill Nelson and Be-Bop Deluxe for bringing us Sunburst Finish.

[slopes]

Seeing as i can't fast forward any tracks then my three would have to be

Grave Dancers Union - Soul Asylum

Argybargy - Squeeze

Sonic Temple - The Cult

Out of that lot, i wouldn't class any of them as favourite but i can listen to each of them without skipping a track

[Mr Happy]

Plan B - The Defamation of Strickland Banks
Maiden - A Matter of Life and Death
Prodigy - Music for the Jilted Generation

A notable mention for the Ill Manors OST as well, I have a thing for storytelling albums I guess!
