I just realised....
Tales from Topographic Oceans by Yes is a Double Album.
got to be in with a big chance, seeing Jon is from Accrington

My first record player was a Bush. It would play 78, 45, and 33 and a bit. I can't remember exactly what I had on 78 ... Tommy Steele for sure, and Conway Twitty. My grandad had a full set of Gilbert and Sullivan on 78, by the Oily Cart folks. In those days you needed a wheelbarrow to carry your tunes around.

my parents had a dansette that also played 16 rpm

London Calling

Electric Ladyland - already been mentioned - there was another double Hendrix compilation I had with interviews at the end and a selection of live and studio versions it may have been called "Jimmy" or something like that?

Also "The Great Rock n' Roll Swindle!"

Exile on Main Street by the Rolling Stones. Their last great album?

London Calling - the Clash. Without doubt. Nothing comes close.

Depends if you like punk. I do not, so your comment is wrong.
I think you should listen to Sounds that can't be made, by musics best kept secret, it's the latest album by Marillion, a critically acclaimed album, in fact it has been said its almost as good as Dark Side of The Moon, the standard by which all rock is judged

But of course my opinion will be different than yours...

I shall certainly listen to it. If its better than London Calling then its brilliant. I wouldn't call London Calling punk though

You've made my night, I will take the punk reference back, that's my mistake.

If you go to marillion.com they will send you a free sample disc. Just so you knw, I purchased Sounds that can't....several months before its release, we'll before they recorded it.
Enjoy

Without a doubt Stadium Arcadium by Red Hot Chili Peppers. It is a rare masterpiece because most of today's music sucks.
