Nice list! 2 of my favourite albums are Yes, Drama and Raindow, Rising. Interestingly if you take the keyboard play from Yes (who played on Drama in 1980, and is still in Yes today)... And the bass player from Rainbow, Rising (Dio's bass player)... You end up with Kate Bush, The Dreaming. Haha they both played on that album.
The criminally underrated "Animals" album as well as "Sabotage".... The latter I favor over "Master of Reality or "Volume 4" nowadays. The Sabs had a bunch of great albums... Only true fans are lucky enough to know of their greatness beyond a few of them
Solid list In Rock is my #1 and every other album on your list narrowly missed my cut. An all time top 5 is so hard, it's like asking me to choose a favorite child
1. Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway 2. Can - Tago Mago 3. Captain Beefheart - Trout Mask Replica 4. The Beatles - Revolver 5. King Crimson - Larks' Tongues in Aspic
"Larks In Aspen's Tongue".. my awesome introduction to King Crimson. "Revolver' used to be a favorite.. but Rubber Soul overtook it when the real version or the UK version came out in the US with "Nowhere Man". (Yet 'And Your Bird Can Sing" fulfills the mighty "Revolver" in the same way in america.. used to be on the "Yesterday And Today"album)
A great episode. I would like to play along... 1. Beatles - Abbey Road 2. Jethro Tull - Songs From The Wood 3. Yes - Fragile 4. Rush - 2112 5. Queen - A Night At The Opera
Love that you have Perfect Str. on your list DB -- all other DeepP albums get mentioned but that is right up there with the more familiars. BOC on my list as well.
Hi Duncan. Exceptional, uncommon, and great pick with Chinatown. Let me know if you want to listen to the 2nd CD of the Deluxe edition with rare, alternate, and live tracks from the Chinatown sessions.

Cheers from California by way of Minnesota.

i always wonder if its weird, you're thinking "my little angel hangs out with a bunch of guys that are my age". its always weird to me when i go to concerts and instead of running into my old friends from high school, i run into my old friends kids that are now the age we were when we were hanging out LOL.
5. Vicious Rumors - Digital Dictator 4. Steve Morse - High Tension Wires 3. Crimson Glory - Tanscendence 2. Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell 1. Iron Maiden - Somewhere in Time

This is my current list, it could completely change at any time. 1. Thin Lizzy- Black Rose 2. Deep Purple- Burn 3. Rush- Permanent Waves 4.Racer X- Street Lethal (if you call yourself a metal fan and haven’t heard this album, you’re doing yourself a massive disfavor.) 5. Soundgarden- Superunkown
@@davehodson6288 Paul Gilbert is one of my all time favorites. Everyone in the band is excellent though. Don’t get me wrong, I love well thought out solos and complex music arrangements, but sometimes I just wanna hear face melting guitar shredding. That album grabs you by the throat and beat the hell outta you for 35 mins straight. Second Heat is equally as face melting.
I was going to mention second heat and the two live albums that followed all excellent. By the way I actually met Jeff Martin back here in the UK when he drummed for badlands.had a a brief chat about racer x with him
@@davehodson6288 That’s awesome! Jeff was an excellent singer, but he was no slouch on the kit either! Yeah, those two live albums are also excellent. I’ve actually heard that Bruce and Jeff aren’t on speaking terms, so it’s not really a big chance of happening, but I’m hoping that they’ll do at least ONE more reunion album and tour. I’ve never had the chance to see them live and would love to.
Fun show! #1 Van Halen debut #2 Van Halen 2 #3 The Beatles, Abbey Road #4 Boston, debut #5 Queen, A Night at the opera Honorable Mentions #1 Rush, Permanent Waves #2 The Who, Tommy #3 The Beatles, With the Beatles

Great episode, specially at the end when they got into their top first album. My picks: 1) Entombed - Left Hand Path 2) Black Sabbath - Master of Reality 3) Metallica - Ride the Lightning 4) Slayer - Reign in Blood 5) Motörhead - Overkill
I remember back in 1976 when the "Rainbow Rising" album came out how the local record shop had the artwork covering the whole of the front window. Of course I bought it being a Deep Purple and Ritchie Blackmore fan. Bloody hard to think of it being 46 years ago now.
@@integrity101 "Burn" and "Stormbringer" from Deep Purple Mark 3. The "Slaves and Masters" album (with Joe Lynn Turner on vocals) is also quite good musically. And the first three Deep Purple albums with Rod Evans (on vocals) I really like. The album "Burn" is still the best one he's been involved with (IMHO). And "Burn" is my number one pick for Deep Purple. I prefer David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes over Ian Gillan.
1. The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway - Genesis 2. Weather Report - Domino Theory/Heavy Weather (pick one for also mention) 3. Dark Side of the Moon/Animals - Pink Floyd (pick one for also mention) 4. One Size Fits All - Frank Zappa 5. Fleetwood Mac - Rumors
Man, so nice to see Tesla on these lists. The Great Radio Controversy was the first record my mom ever bought for me. My top 10: 1) The Cure-Disintegration 2) The Clash-London Calling 3) Rush-Hemispheres 4) The Who-Quadrophenia 5) Queen-Sheer heart attack
1. Iron Maiden - Seventh Son Of a Seventh Son 2. Opeth Blackwater Park 3. Mastodon - Crack the Skye 4. Queensryche Operation Mindcrime 5. Black Sabbath. Heaven and Hell
I love that the Hudson Valley Squares covered their top five favorite albums of all time! With Chris Alo and Butch Jones on the panel, it's always a fun time!
Takeaways from tonight's "Butch Jones special edition" episode : 1. The first thing I check is the length of the show. I see its just shy of two hours and I immediately think to myself "Butch must be back" 2. Sydney, Ryan, Steve, Chris A., Chris C. and sure enough, Butch in the house tonight. 3. We begin tonight's show with one of Ryan's dogs right from the start... 4. Ryan also with the new camera and microphone... 5. The album you go back to "all the damn time" 6. "Butch is like a grumpy cat" 7. (Personal note to Butch) - I saw Icon headline a little club-The Keystone, Palo Alto, CA on June 29, 1984... 8. "Sad Trombone" 9. The problem with skipping songs on cassettes and 8-Track tapes... 10. The Devil and the Whore 11. Steve - "...Satan banging a chick" Ryan - "No, that's the art work" 12. Myself and everyone on the panel losing it over the #11 exchange above (except for Chris Alo who looks like he's asleep)?!?! 13. "And then they fucked off" 14. When a band's "soon to be released" album comes out 12 years later... 15. Tesla Tuesday 16. We have the first of several John Sykes mentions 24 minutes and 13 seconds into the show... 17. "Chris has got 8 or 9 copies" 18. "The country is Finland, that's a shock..." 19. Atom Heart Mother as a sleeping aid... 20. "I really didn't do my homework and I'm still (not) doing it to this day..." 21. Steve as "Radar" from M*A*S*H*... 22. "A blank tape is better than The X-Factor" 23. Ryan - "All right, Radar" Steve - "Fuck you, Alo" 24. "It's Voivod at their Voivodiest" 25. " I would totally screw those broads, especially the one on the far right. Bend her over, I'd show her the stars and stripes" 26. "I'm making notes for my turn" 27. "Here's my five CD copies at the moment" 28. The tag team wrestlers The Road Warriors are responsible for Chris Alo getting into music. Who knew? ... 29. Butch - "I don't want to ask a question and make it longer..." Chris A. - "Well fuck, you might as well at this point" 30. "I'll need some soda or a good line of coke" 31. "The intro is evil as fuck" 32. "The guitar solos are shrieking out of the caves of hell" 33. "When I was young, pimply faced and stupid (pause) still stupid" 34. "They don't make stuff like that anymore" 35. "How can I get my hair like Edward's"? 36. "I got to piss next to him" 37. "I wanted to grab a hammer and start smashing the windows of my bedroom" 38. "Fuck it. There's no rules. If there were, I can pull a Keeler or a Catino. I'm doing whatever the fuck I want!" 39. "He's been listening to Winger records or something" 40. "I don't know what the fuck kind of amphetamines he fed Hogland to play on that album" 41. "Strapping Young Lad sounds like a thousand jackhammers flying up your ass" 42. "I'm disappointed Nick's #1 wasn't something I couldn't spell or read" 43. I am typing this at 4:53am and I have no idea how I'm going to get up in a few hours. Thanks, Butch! My top 5 favorite albums in the rock genres: 1. Aerosmith - Live Bootleg 2. Exodus - Bonded By Blood 3. Iron Maiden - Self titled debut 4. Led Zeppelin- III 5. G.B.H. - City Baby Attacked By Rats
Whoa GBH sneaking into the top 5! Cool! I was super late to the party with those guys until a friend steered me . Already loved some of their peers (Discharge, Amebix…) for years. Amazing album though!
@@Conan_WhatIsBestInLife I first saw GBH on July 14, 1986. I last saw them May 30, 2018. Three of the four members were still in the band. The new drummer came aboard in 1994.
@@michaelriffee4526 I’ve got a soft spot for their ‘83 album City Baby’s Revenge too. Hell, even their most recent 2017 album Momentum is great! I had an opportunity to see them around 2018, they toured the US that summer I believe, but I already had tickets to see another show so unfortunately I missed it. I heard they were incredible on that tour.
