So what's left from my top 100? Tongue

Also, how that's Galaxie 500? I've been considering trying them out, since I've been loving slowcore lately, but they bend a lot closer to "conventional" rock than I'm used to.

Is it that obvious? LOL. I skipped all the jazz in your list since I have trouble handling too much jazz and the 50 or so jazz records I have are more than enough for me currently (I'm sure one day I will full-on get into jazz). I also skipped a few noise albums. Some of them are very challenging, not anywhere close to anything I've ever heard. The first time I listened to the Nurse with Wound album in your list I was horrified but already by the second listen I started to appreciate the insanity. 
Lots of stuff I still haven't heard and a few album titles which caught my attention I haven't been able to find anywhere so still a lot to check out. The For Carnation, Labradford, Dirty Three, Joanna Newsom, Earth 2, The Ascension, I Could Live in Hope and Kollaps have all became favourites of mine. And even beyond making me discover these treasures, your list got me back into actively searching for music and it's been very productive so far. Thank you for that.

It's a bland album imo but I still like it. The first 3 songs sound pretty much the same but I enjoy this kind of easy-listening pop with a laid-back vibe and the album does a decent job at it.

Robert Schroeder – Floating Music
Campo di Marte – s/t (original version – what’s all this nonsense about a re-arranged/re-ordered newer version??)
Can – Tago Mago
Yellow Magic Orchestra – s/t
Yellow Magic Orchestra – Solid State Survivor
Yellow Magic Orchestra - Public Pressure (live)
Yellow Magic Orchestra – BGM

Sam, I’ve finally been giving my turntable a big workout the last week (finally), and I dug out several of my YMO LP’s. I played through the first one twice last night (probably for the first time in well over fifteen years), and I was thinking `Man, I do NOT remember this album being so hyperactive, was I wrong about how cool it was?’ etc. I checked the 33/45 rpm speed about five times, but all seemed right. So I played the debut through twice thinking `My God, I think I’m going to have a mental breakdown!!’ But still part of me was sure something was wrong, so I put on another record, and sure enough the speed was all out…so I rethreaded the band under the LP plate, and then sure enough – not only perfect speed, but sounded better than ever!

^ About the Campo di Marte re-arrangement, the reissue has the track order the band originally intended.

Ah, that happened to me with the Schmoelling album this week, although I noticed after playing the first side :P


Just one awesome album:
The Black Wizards - What the Fuzz!

Ah, but see, there's my dilemma! I understand that, but isn't the version that was released originally - the one that RPI followers came to raise up as a bit of a classic - the classic version, regardless of what the band now consider as having its faults and having released their belated `correct' version?

Long story short, I'm wanting to add this one to my collection, as its one of the classic vintage RPI discs that I haven't bought yet, and I want the one that is the way it was back in the Seventies, not some `re-writing of history' version....I'm wondering if Steven Wilson had a hand in this!

^ This is one of the cases I'm fine with, they just changed the order not the music itself and the decision of the original order was made by the label without the band's consent which is unacceptable in my opinion.

You can always rip the CD and play in the original order.
