Legend is Bob Marley’s greatest hits album.

Footballguy
Yeah I did know that, everyone growing up seemed to have that album but for some reason I thought Exodus was a compilation album too. It just had too many hits on there, fooled me.

As solidly honest a comment as I can remember. It took me a while to figure out Legend was a Greatest Hits album and that there were others it was culled from. I loathed the kids that played Marley all the time, too, but for about six months I had a grudging respect for a guy who put "that many hit songs on one hit album."
Yeahhhhh, about that, rock.

lol I get that. Even if you can’t stand reggae, I think if Legend was just an album of original songs we would all probably have to acknowledge it as the best album of all time.
Early REM was always an afterthought, seemed dull. Decided to give it a real shot based on how much I liked their 90s stuff. Started with Murmur and a few listens later ... volia my 4th ranked album. Had to eventually remove songs from playing device so I wouldn't OD on it. Moral Kiosk will be added to playlist.259 (tie). Murmur – R.E.M. (105 points)

Murmur is the debut studio album by American alternative rock band R.E.M., released on April 12, 1983, by I.R.S. Records. The album was recorded in the winter of 1983 at Reflection Studios in Charlotte, North Carolina, with musicians Don Dixon and Mitch Easter serving as producers. Murmur received critical acclaim upon release for its unconventional sound, defined by lead singer Michael Stipe's cryptic lyrics, guitarist Peter Buck's jangly playing, and melodic lines from bassist Mike Mills. In 2003, the album was ranked number 197 in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time". It retained the position in the 2012 list and was raised to number 165 in the 2020 revision.

Love seeing this ranked so high, krista. I hoped we'd share some classical but I'll settle for some jazz. Of interest to you might be how I discovered this. I was lamenting the "death of jazz" in some music conversation here. My take was that there was fantastic jazz still being released, but it's failure commercially was going to kill it eventually. Wikkid said the only hope was for the world to embrace Latin jazz and introduced me (us) to this. My low ranking only goes to how hard I struggled to make cuts. Hat tip to you too landry's hat. Both your rankings make me feel like the weak sauce here.

Bon Jovi is pretty short. When I saw the Wallflowers at the Stone Pony, John Bon Jovi came out and sang a few songs during the encore. He walked right by me and top of his head was at chest level and I'm not particularly tall at around 6'.
Jakob Dylan as well. The guitarist towered over John and Jackob and he was about my height.

War is the third studio album by Irish rock band U2. It was produced by Steve Lillywhite, and was released on 28 February 1983 on Island Records. The album is regarded as U2's first overtly political album, in part because of songs like "Sunday Bloody Sunday" and "New Year's Day", as well as the title, which stems from the band's perception of the world at the time; lead vocalist Bono stated that "war seemed to be the motif for 1982."

By the Way is the eighth studio album by the American rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers, released July 9, 2002, on Warner Bros. Records. It sold more than 286,000 copies in its first week, and peaked at number two on the Billboard 200. Singles included "By the Way", "The Zephyr Song", "Can't Stop" and "Universally Speaking". Additionally, "Dosed" was released as a promotional single in the US and Canada. The lyrical subject matter vocalist Anthony Kiedis addresses in By the Way is a divergence from previous Red Hot Chili Peppers albums, with Kiedis taking a more candid and reflective approach to his lyrics

Checked out Jayhawks I liked it but halfway through wife said she didn’t like it and made me change it. Normally seems like something she would like so I don’t know. Maybe it was an extended guitar solo or something
Also checked out some of that porcupine tree good stuff but again only got a few songs into it

250 (tie). Gentlemen – The Afghan Whigs (109 points)
@Mookie Gizzy #4
@landrys hat #29
Gentlemen is the fourth studio album by American alternative rock band the Afghan Whigs. It was recorded primarily at Ardent Studios in Memphis, with the band's frontman Greg Dulli producing, and released on October 5, 1993, by Elektra Records.
Written by Dulli on tour for the band's 1992 album Congregation, Gentlemen is composed as a troubling song cycle that follows a toxic relationship as it ends. Noted for Dulli's grimly acerbic lyrics and influences from soul music, it is considered by critics to be the Afghan Whigs' greatest record, an essential release from the 1990s, and among the best-written breakup albums. The album was remastered in deluxe format for its 21st anniversary and covered extensively in a dedicated volume of the 33⅓ music book series.

On the other hand, I ain't that old. 1986. So many young women and their Aqua Net that the men began sharing. Heh. This and "Home Sweet Home" pretty much defined the zeitgeist within my cultural milieu. Whether this is something to celebrate is another matter, but I'm smiling. A bit.

With 5 MMJ albums in my list, it was difficult to pick a favorite. Went with this one because it's solid the whole way through and think it would be the best introduction to the band to those unfamiliar. Of course (I hope) everyone is aware of One Big Holiday, but there are other great songs on here, like the incredibly beautiful I Will Sing You Songs, Run Thru, and Steam Engine.
For the playlist, I go with Mahgeeta.

No, really. I've heard one MMJ song and it was a searing live one that I enjoyed.

Maybe not the most obvious choice of #1 picks, but this was released at an important time in my life, and has the rare combination of no bad tracks allowing for the rare instance of just listening through uninterrupted, and some real heavy hitting singles, makes it an easy enough choice for me.

I used to learn the lyrics before I learned to play the guitar. Once I learned how to play guitar, the singing just became another instrument and I never learned anything again.
The voice is an instrument, bruh. Any content that comes with them is a special bonus, like a level up or a free extra character in a video game.
I've found my people. There are songs I've heard hundreds of times, and I still don't know the lyrics.

I could only find room for the big 2(Joshua and Achtung) on my list, but War sits right there with The Unforgettable Fire and Rattle and Hum in my U2 top 5 as well, though. Along with the obvious classics, Drowning Man and Surrender are two of their best deep cuts of their early years.
The Dreaded Marco
Footballguy
The Joshua Tree and The Unforgettable Fire are my top two, leaving War and Achtung Baby to battle it out. I didn't want to list 4 albums for any artist, and only listed 3 for 2 artists, U2 being one of them. If I was making this list 4-5 years ago, Achtung Baby would've been #3 but I've been listening to War a lot more over the past few years.
War was U2's first great album and was the first one I heard at 15. And it was the first U2 cassette I purchased as soon as it was released, after hearing the New Year's Day single. And when I finally bought my first CD player in 1989, War was the first CD I bought to play on it.....

The Traveling Wilburys Vol. 1 is the debut studio album by the English-American supergroup Traveling Wilburys, comprising George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison and Tom Petty. It was released in October 1988 to commercial success and critical acclaim. Although Harrison had long planned to start such a band, the project came about through happenstance. Harrison was in Los Angeles and in need of a B-side for a single from his album Cloud Nine, which resulted in the participants collaborating informally on the song "Handle with Care" at Dylan's home.
Adopting alter egos as the five Wilbury brothers, they then recorded a full album, produced by Lynne and Harrison (under the pseudonyms Otis and Nelson Wilbury respectively). It was the only Wilburys album to feature Roy Orbison and the final album featuring Orbison to be released during his lifetime - he died suddenly of a heart attack less than two months after its release. The group continued as a four-piece after his death.
