 Topic: Highest Rated Album you DON’T own ...?
Posted: August 28 2005 at 19:56 |
I know the "Top 100" album list here is very subjective and can change frequently ... but I like to look at it for suggestions of titles that I should try.
What's the (currently) highest rated album on the list that you don't own? For me, it's "The Snow Goose" by Camel. Looking forward to trying that out.

Moving Pictures. I'm not counting Wish You Were Here, even though I don't own it, because I used to.

Well, I have "Moving Pictures" by Rush burned on a CD, so I'm not sure if that counts. If it does, then the next one down the line is #17: VdGG's "Pawn Hearts."
Not too shabby for someone who's been into prog for a year, really.

Yeah, I guess I'm counting "own or have owned". Several (like "Wish You Were Here") I have on vynil but not CD, and even though I don't have a turntable I theoretically could go out and get one and still play it ...

Does downloading them count? If not I don't own any Dream Theater.
