I tried to pick albums that I thought everyone should listen to, not just my favorites.
1. Roxy Music - For Your Pleasure ~ A Great album that features Brian Eno. Displays Ferry and Eno's rift quite well. But it is also the paradigm of glam rock (yes they win over Bowie)
2. Brian Eno - Another Green World ~ Eno's best album in my view. His solo work ultimately led to the creation of ambient music, but on another green world, he's at his art-pop best.
3. The Talking Heads - Remain In Light ~ One of the finest albums to emerge from the eighties, it's quite simply amazing.
4. Can - Future Days ~ Can's final album before losing Damo Suzuki. It's the prettiest sounding album by can, but also probably their best (in terms of experimentation).
5. Devo - Q: Are We Not Men? ~ One of the best deconstructed rock albums ever, but at the same time, Devo manages alot of beauty. Gut Feeling quite simply is one of the catchiest songs writte (mostly the opening segment)
Jam it back in, in the dark.
