A little record called Lifestyle by the band Silkworm. Developer was my first introduction to this band (and a fine introduction it was) but this LP was the first one that made me say, "Holy balls, this is one tremendous rock band." 'Raging Bull' is perfection, I have listened to it countless times, as well as other songs from it, and it still sounds fresh with each listen. Great album art, too. I guess that's a good enough indication of an "all time" great or whatever it is that you're asking for.

aren't you guys glad you didn't run off theswede? those were just the kind of descriptions i was looking for. awesome.

Hi, Brett. These have been my two favorites for quite a few years now.

Look at it. Go on, look at it! In a Priest Driven Ambulance With Silver Sunshine Stares, (I tend to use the proper title when speaking of this album), is a remarkable piece of work. So glorious and loud! Each time I listen I'm transplanted back in time to when I first heard it, with the same giddy emotions rising to the surface: joy, wonderment, amusement, sadness, and a host of other feelings. The coda to "There You Are: Jesus Song No. 7" is so goddamned beautiful and the second chorus of "Shine on Sweet Jesus: Jesus Song No. 5" makes me want to fling myself from atop a very high building. This album strikes with the perfect balance of noise and melody.

I love you, In a Priest Driven Ambulance With Silver Sunshine Stares. You are superb.

I am heartened to know I am not alone in calling it In a Priest Driven Ambulance With Silver Sunshine Stares.

Thank you Randall, for making me feel like a natural woman. Oh, wait. That's not what a natural woman feels like.

I know this is primarily a rock forum but maybe some of y'all engineering pros will get something out of listening to this historic recording. Casals was definitely one of the greatest music legends of recent history.

I love the Replacements. This album, from the pink swirled vinyl to the day I played "What a wonderful world" at the end of service when we closed a three-star Northern Italian ristorante', has kept me motivated.

Seconded.

Wall-to-wall melody and harmony.

i've got two records that i'll never stop loving and listening to;
