Most underrated CD of the last 30 years

[LostinVA]

My pick:

"Under Rug Swept," Alanis Morrisette

I think it's rather brilliant.

[ScreamingMeemie]

1. Ummm...Lost...

Thirty years ago they were vinyls..., or 8 tracks...perhaps a cassette or two.


:rofl: :hi:

[meegbear]

3. And reel-to-reel, lest we forget.

[LostinVA]

4. I know... but the younguns on her might not understand "album"

And, I NEVER owned an 8-track.

[Left Is Write]

6. We need to teach them "album", because it's still a valid word.

The collection of works is still an album, whether it's on CD, tape or LP.

:D

[johnnie]

7. Amen sister

Preach it!

I always say "album" because that's what it still is.

[LostinVA]

10. Agreed -- but this is what my niece and nephew hear when I say that word:

sjkdjhsgduygjhsbsbsbms... then, they laugh.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

8. I understand "albums," and I'm a young'un!

:hi:

2. War of the Worlds: The UllaDubUlla Remix

A personal fave. Its a remix of the 70s rock opera War of the Worlds. Which in and of itself should be in the running for underrated CD of the last 30 years.

[PVnRT]

5. Oasis, of course

Noel Gallagher is, like, cooler than Jesus and stuff.

[MrCoffee]

9. In A Priest Driven Ambulance - The Flaming Lips

[LostinVA]

11. Good choice -- I saw them in concert this summer

[MrCoffee]

12. how was their new show?

i saw them way back in the day (when Ronald was still around, when you could still worship in the Church of Michael Ivins' Hair) and absolutely love them live. I've seen clips of the weirdness that is Wayne Coyne these days.

My old roommate and I participated in one of his Parking Lot Experiments in Austin. Strange times.

[LostinVA]

15. Very, very good

[Orsino]

13. James McMurtry: Too Long in the Wasteland (1989) n/t

[Redneck Socialist]

20. That CD is simply awesome

I love me some James McMurtry

[LynneSin]

14. I have everything of Alanis and love that CD

:D

[LostinVA]

16. I think it's better than Jagged Little Pill

Very complex.

[LynneSin]

17. JLP is just so meaningful in so many ways to me

"You Oughtta Know" sums up my 8-year relation with the idiot

[MissMillie]

18. Robbie Robertson -- "Storyville"

and Aimee Mann's "Whatever"

[speedoo]

21. Oooh... I'll have to check out "Storyville".

I loved Robbie Robertson's first solo album.

[mainegreen]

19. Adult Themes for Voice: Mike Patton

Dammit, the man is a genius. Sure, it's hard to to tap to it, but its just so damn stimulating.

[Alexander]

22. De-Loused In The Comatorium - The Mars Volta

[SteppingRazor]

23. I believe the OP said "underrated" not "overrated"

:evilgrin:

[Alexander]

26. It is underrated - it should've reached #1!

And stayed there, for a good year or so.

It would've been better than almost every #1 hit since then.

:evilgrin:

[Jimbo S]

24. The Replacements "Tim"

I was a junior in college when it came out and it was just what the doctor ordered.

25. Dead Rekoning--Kieran Kane
