And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that.

No it doesn`t
It`s was one of the 30 that I cut , so it`s probably fair to say it`s nearer 101 than 1

64. Stevie Wonder - Innervisions (1973)

I was always a bit dubious of Stevie Wonder , and you can hardly blame me really. I grew up in the eighties when Stevie was churning out crap such as 'I Just Called To Say I Love You' *vomit*. One day I was watching a documentary on black music & was blown away by some of the stuff on this album.The electronic effects on this album sound a little dated now but they were groundbreaking at the time & give this album a totally unique sound of it`s own and you have to say the guy dragged black music into the modern day. Granted people might say Songs In The Key Of Life is better but this album to me seems more leaner & more direct & doesn`t have the sugary ballads that clog up SITKOL.So i`ll go for this one.

Favourite Songs - Too High , Livin For The City , Higher Ground


63. Motorhead - Overkill (1979)

Question....
How do you spot a fake Motorhead fan

Answer....
They`ll say Ace Of Spades is Motorheads best album

Although Ace of Spades is their most well known song , the album itself is patchy & far from Motorheads best.
THIS is the album you go to if you want the best of Motorhead.Most of the songs off this album have remained in their live shows throughout the whole of their career.It`s just half an hour of a sonic assault on your ears & just never lets go.In fact it`s just brutal. You also have Motorheads best line up of Lemmy , Fast Eddie & Phil 'The Animal' Tayor ,and I only found out recently that it was produced by Jimmy Miller who was responsable for the Stones Exile On Main Street & Primal Scream`s Screamadelica.There`s only one metal album above this on my list , thats just how highly I rate this.

Favourite Songs - Overkill , No Class , Metropolis


62. Beastie Boys - Pauls Boutique (1989)

I really cannot beleive this album was critically panned when it was released.To me this is the best hip hop album ever made (bar one ... thats coming later).I looked it up on allmusic.com and it said this..Musically, few hip-hop records have ever been so rich; it's not just the recontextulations of familiar music via samples, it's the flow of each song and the album as a whole, culminating in the widescreen suite that closes the record. Lyrically, the Beasties have never been better -- not just because their jokes are razor-sharp, but because they construct full-bodied narratives and evocative portraits of characters and places. Few pop records offer this much to savor, and if Paul's Boutique only made a modest impact upon its initial release, over time its influence could be heard through pop and rap, yet no matter how its influence was felt, it stands alone as a record of stunning vision, maturity, and accomplishment. Plus, it's a hell of a lot of fun, no matter how many times you've heard it.
Can`t say I disagree with any of that.

Favourite Songs - Shake Your Rump , Looking Down The Barrel Of A Gun , Shadrach


61. Ed Harcourt - Here be Monsters (2001)

I find it odd that people are constantly singing the praises of Jamie Cullum for bringing back the sound of jazz & all the rest of it.Especially because Ed was doing it at least 4 or 5 years earlier & doing it much much better. The thing I love most about Ed`s music is his versatility. I think the guy must play every instrument under the sun. So on this album you get slow jazzy ballads , uptempo rock songs with flashy solos and all sorts of things.The only problem I have with Ed`s music is he`s never really fulfilled his potential.None of his subsequent releases have managed to match how wonderful this album is. Hopefully he`ll get there eventually.It`s quite sad to see people as dull as James Blunt & Damien Rice take over this sort of thing when I know Ed is capable of running rings around them on his day.

Favourite Songs - Something In My Eye , Apple Of My Eye , Shanghai
