Only discographies I own are Foo Fighters and We Are Scientists. I have not listened to Foo Fighters enough to rank them and I doubt people care about We Are Scientists.

Little Creatures
True Stories

I've listened to Remain in Light so much I can't play it anymore. literally. Naked and Talking Heads '77 are fantastic. I'm surprised by peoples indifference to Naked. I think it was their strongest album SINCE Remain in Light. Talking Heads 77 is just a fun album to listen to. More Songs and Fear of Music are good albums, though Fear is a bit too choppy I guess. SiT is not as impressive when you here the live versions of those songs from Stop Making Sense. Same thing with Little Creatures. And True Stories is ok. Don't listen to it often, but I do like Love for Sale, Hey Now, Puzzlin' Evidence, and City of Dreams.

I should really catch myself up on these. I only have Fragile and Close to the Edge. I know I would probably enjoy over half of their discography.

i have to catch up on Yes as well because i'm seeing them this summer even though i really only know the Fragile album well

Led Zeppelin

Led Zeppelin
Led Zeppelin IV
Led Zeppelin II
Houses of the Holy
Physical Graffiti
Led Zeppelin III
Presence
In Through the Out Door
Coda

That list was actually rather difficult to make because really I could almost say Houses is equally as good as II, III is equally as good as Grafitti and Presence, etc. The only absolute solid spots on the list are the top two and the last two.


The Doors

L.A. Woman
Strange Days
The Doors
Morrison Hotel
Waiting for the Sun
The Soft Parade

Note that there is a large gap between Sun and Parade, and between Hotel and Sun. Those last two were major disappointments, but Parade especially so. They're still good though. Oh, and I haven't heard the stuff from after Jim died, and I don't really care to.


Bob Dylan

Bringing it All Back Home
Highway 61 Revisited
Blonde on Blonde
The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan
Blood on the Tracks
Another Side of Bob Dylan
Slow Train Coming

Those are all the Dylan albums I own. I really need to get more. The last one I only have because I found the vinyl for $1. Never met anyone else that likes Bringing the most.


Porcupine Tree

Stupid Dream
Fear of a Blank Planet
Deadwing
In Absentia
The Incident

Need to get more of these guys sometime too.


I don't really have any other artists that I have tons of albums by that haven't already been posted. But just for the hell of it:

Abbey Road
Revolver
Sgt. Pepper
White Album
Rubber Soul
A Hard Day's Night
Magical Mystery Tour
Let it Be
Help!
Beatles for Sale
With the Beatles
Please Please Me

The last two could really be tied, honestly.
