What is your favourite non-Queen album?

The Fairy King, I’m surprised you didn’t include “The Joshua Tree” in your favorite U2 albums.

It used to be one of my favourites, until i gave it more listens (i got the boxset) and kinda concluded it's not that great (for me).

The album has it's moments (Bullet The Blue Sky, With Or Without You, Streets and Mining Town) but overall find it a bit boring.

Achtung, for example, is perfect from start to finish and is the ultimate U2 album for me and it took them a few years to recapture that with ATYCLB.

I went to the 30th anniversary concert of the Joshua Tree album in a stadium in July, 2017 and it was a magical night!

The only track I am very familiar with from Achtung Baby and I really love it is “One.”

Depeche Mode-Violator

Mirage is the title of Fleetwood Mac's album with Gypsy. A great song but not my favourite album by them. It's probably my least favourite of the 75-87 period.

like the Lepps choice.
one thing i always thought about that album though - good as the songs are, the sound quality was a little "thin".
wonder if that was to do with squeezing 60+ mins onto two sides of vinyl?
The first two LPs are excellent, Pyro is still very good - as is Hysteria. i think by the time they broke into the US market their sound started to dilute a little.

Priest - great shout.

Purple - agreed, but would also include, In Rock (epic LP) and Burn.

-Porcupine Tree. - The Sky Moves Sidewards
-Johnny Cash - American Recordings (can't chose one)
-Sweet - Very Best Of
-The Mars Volta - De-Loused In Comatorium

Time Takes Time by Ringo Starr and A Single Man by Elton John are two that come to mind

yep, nice choice : Elton. I like "The Fox"

Ringo and George produced consistently good solo stuff, think this stems from being released from the confines of "one composition per LP" for 8 years.
Ringo's "Ringo", Goodnight Vienna" and Ringo Rama" are really good.

Pink Floyd-The Wall.
