Hi all

(Def: Rock albums or any album (any genre) that is really good all the way through. Although there is sometimes one or two difficult track we are not sure of.)

I have no idea if something similar is already active here. If it is, could somebody be kind enough to chastise me and point me in the right direction.

Anyway, having got past that, I would like to hear everybody else's personal favourites and perhaps top 10's etc.

I have recently been listening to a fantastic album from 1968. The Zombies, Odessey and Oracle.

Fantastic songwriting from Chris White and Rod Argent. Beautiful vocals from the wonderful Colin Blunstone.

The one "difficult" track for some might be "The Butcher's Tale", a song about a shell shocked WWI trench infantry man. Strong anti-war stuff.

I got into this after seeing this album being played on Rock World TV by the Zombies...40 years after it was recorded and the first time it was ever played live! Brilliant stuff. A forgotten gem.

Love to hear what you out there like.

Thnx
Steve
