Strangely the solo stuff for me is very obvious - Gilmour's Living on an Island - while i have it its does'nt push all the buttons - maybe as some of you actually play ( very jealous) you have a more focused view - i have every Floyd album although i have to say that i only started at Relics - and had to get the earlier ones - DSOTM blew my mind as a 13 year old yuff - i heard it first on Nicky Horn's capital radio on launch - its still my No 1 album and that has'nt changed in 45 years

I loved Oasis. Always will. Might not be a popular opinion but Blur were better. They make better cheese too.

Don't like Another Brick in the Wall at all. The Final Cut. a Pink Floyd album in all but name only. A Momentary Lapse of Reason.

Oasis.

The final two albums you’ve mentioned there were before and after the bands self destruction so there we never going to be great. The final cut is great of course as Roger waters says so

On the band thing, it would be interesting to know how your kids' tastes differ from your own, or whether they align at all.
Quite lucky with my daughter. She's 14 and loves Muse, Elbow, Grandaddy, Foo Fighters, Twenty One Pilots, the Wombats, Two Door Cinema Club and now Editors.
She does also listen to a little bit of crap, but on the whole is an indie kid.

I got my youngest son into rock music early on, and he did play drums in a band when he was 15, and they were rock/indie group. Now aged 34 he has an eclectic taste, but his favourite band of all time are Stereophonics. I treated him to a ticket about 18 years ago to when they were headlining at Donnington Park, I went too and they were great, as were Ash another band he likes.

I take my two daughters 22 and 26 on a holiday every year. We usually do a 350 mile road trip, so we have plenty of time for music. Before we go we each make a playlist, then on the journey we alternate each other's songs, so we all get to hear each other's music. I usually like about 90% of what my daughters play. And usually I find they have 'stolen' a few songs from my previous playlists. And I certainly steal some songs from their playlists; usually artists I had never heard of before. So listening to other people's favourite music is good. You might hear something you like you never would have known about otherwise.

On Planet Rock tonight one of the hairy bikers on their show said a year ago his missus bought him a ticket to see Joe Bonamassa in concert. He said he was great but the ticket was £200.00 and thought no performer is worth that. No way would I pay that !

God no. I liked him in Black Country Communion and that’s it

I couldn't afford to pay that much even if he was my favourite artist. Although my ex missus was a big Tina Turner fan and I treated her to a ticket at the NEC about 20 years ago, and even back then I had to pay about £ 40.00 so not much difference really !

First and foremost, the manic street preachers. I got into them just after everything must go came along. Then discovered their back story and Richey has always fascinated me. The Holy Bible is an incredible piece of art. I read every word of every song in the inlay absolutely mesmerised that those words could be put together to make a melody.

It is a great record. Went off them though when they started introducing orchestras and becoming a lot more mainstream.

What I'm really afraid of, is when I need a nursing home, some young nursey git will decide we just want the Prodigy and the Shamen played incessantly at huge volumes around the building, as that's the kind of music we'd have all listened to when we were younger. The mid 21st century jazz, as it were.
Anyway, Magnum is the answer to the original question.
