it's like crack, but in sonic form!

This really is too damn hard! Just too many flavors to choose from. But I'll go with a record I've always liked for it's variety; "Cheap Thrills" by Big Brother and the Holding Company. It's a great mix of rock, blues, studio and live music and features my favorite female blues singer, Janis Joplin. Killer cover by R. Crumb too! It may not be perfect and right for all occasions, but I always feel good after listening.

Who's Next... the Who (you probably knew that)
Honorable mentions: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club and Abbey Road (I forget the name of the popular music combo that performed on these albums)

Discussion over....
Anyone who's ever read my posts knows I am a humble guy who always feels he can learn something from the next guy.
HOWEVER in this case I can state with absolute conviction that Van Morrison's "Astral Weeks" is the greatest single album ever commited to vinyl. I'm not even a fan of the guy but every genre of popular music today somehow owes something to this album. Do yourself a favour and pick it up ASAP ( on vinyl of course ).
I'd love to hear peoples opinions on it, especially first time listeners.

TYA rules!!!
Check out Ten Years After's "A Space In Time" for what I believe to be possibly the finest mixture of Blues, Rock, Country, and the heady atmosphere of the times (71 I believe) Plenty of stereo panning, long spacey fade outs or else running one song straight into the other. No need to skip tracks. Just let it play. Kind of like Pink Floyd's "Dark Side Of The Moon" or Hendrix's "Electric Ladyland.
Are you Experienced?

Right Artist, Wrong Title.
Only Tubejunke hinted at it.
Jimi's Electric Ladyland had Voodoo Child (slight return) and All Along
The WatchTower to earn the award outright.
But then he played the best 20 minutes of headphone heaven that these ears have ever heard. Just the thought of it is bringing 30 year old canabus remnants out of hiding in my brain.
- Rainy Day, Dream Away
- 1983...(A Merman I Should Turn To Be)
- Moon, Turn The Tides...Gently Gently Away
- Still Raining, Still Dreaming
