Also, you had the perfect opportunity to include Weezer's debut, which is literally referred to as "The Blue Album", and you didn't take it? LOL
I have the perfect excuse for not including Weezer's debut.... I've never heard of Weezer or their debut album before, and besides, who would I leave out of the poll to make room for Weezer, bearing in mind I know and like all 25 personally selected albums in the poll. Smile

No, the inspiration was actually the Moody Blues, who aren't even in the poll. Tongue

Have you maybe found something common for these blue albums, Paul?

Yes, there are no prog albums in the list, but that's not for the lack of looking for them, although I can promise there'll be a fair sprinkling of prog albums in the upcoming "Black list." Smile

We're Back to Black for the next round in the Dulux color chart with the following list of artists which, by the way, includes Amy Winehouse, even though I'm not a fan. Confused 

AC/DC
Astra
Black
Black Sabbath
Black Widow
David Bowie
The Clash
Coheed and Cambra
Miles Davis
Dream Theater
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
FM
Mort Garson
Peter Hammill
Hawkwind
King Crimson
Metallica
Muse
Prince
The Rolling Stones
Lalo Schifrin
J.D. Souther
The Stranglers
Amy Winehouse
XTC


My apologies if your favourite "Black" album isn't listed, but I had to leave at least five albums out of the list through lack of space, including (or rather excluding):- Dave Alvin (Blackjack Dave); Cowboy Junkies (Black-Eyed Man); Dana Dawson (Black Butterfly); Waylon Jennings (Black On Black); The Three Sounds (Black Orchid); The Pointer Sisters (Black and White); and Weezer (Black Album). Confused

I voted for Joni Mitchell's Blue. I had expected to see Massive Attack's Blue Lines, but I don't know how Paul compiles these or chooses the albums (I tend to be interested in such things). I like and have Rain's Cerulean Blue, little known, but nice call (he has posted at PA). My favourite has been Zbigniew Preisner's Three Colours Blue soundtrack. I especially listened to that a lot in the 90s (I love the trilogy). Not an album or film that I would recommend to Paul.

The only album I know from your list is Chris Rea's Blue Guitars (which I have on a 2-CD best of collection), but my all-time favorite Chis Rea album is the soundtrack to La Passione with Shirley Bassey. 
I wonder if Shirley owns a Ferrari....

Joni Mitchell or Miles Davis. The others aren't even in the same galaxy.
