Motorhead - The Wild Bunch of Rock and the only album worth voting for in the best of a bad bunch. I can promise a better line-up for Part 2 though. Smile

AC/DC their best...

Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables

Not because I'm very fond of this album, but it's the closest one.

Yes, we both drew the Ace of Spades, which is meant to be bad luck, but not this time though. Smile

Melt. Yet another example that proves Paul shouldn't be rating albums.

Paul can do whatever he feels like on these forums, but broadcasting one and two star ratings after skipping through a bunch of "classic albums" that you weren't originally familiar with, is both pretty arrogant and unfair. Sometimes the listener is the problem, and not the music.
