Your ALL time favourite CD/ Album

Yeap I said Album, remember those??? LOL

So you can only pick ONE... I know it's hard but which is your all time favourite.

Mine is Sweetback the first CD titled Sweetback. It came out around '91 or so I think and is mostly instrumental. They are Sade's band by the way.

 

Yeah, they release all kinds of new albums every Tuesday. I can't have a favorite. There are far too many good CDs/albums out there. Maybe a top 5 albums may work better.

 

Okay, okay, okay.....
What's your top 5

 

Great question Chigirl!

It is hard to narrow it down...but if I was going to be stranded on a desert island and could only have one album...it would have to be Mary J. Blige "My Life". I just love that woman!!

 

Babyface/Face2Face

 

My favourites are Innocence - dont know if you guys have heard that over there... quite an old one!

Mary J - Whats the 411 album - has to be the best apart from her new one is pretty cool.

Bob Marley tribute CD - remember had Joan Armatrading, Lauryn Hill etc.... absoloutely wicked CD - Lauryn Hill - turn your lights down low is my absoloute favourite tune of all time!

 

Ohh.. I missed the top 5..

then my next four after Babyface are:


Sade/Lovers Rock


Joe/My name is Joe


India Arie/Acoustic Soul


Tamia/A Nu Day

 

Sassy you forgot Milli Vannilli. You know you were into them too. Don't even try and deny it.

 

Milli Vanilli LMAO

What about Hammer???? I admit it I even went to his concert :lol:

 

If i was stranded on a deserted island and had to choose one cd to take with me i would choose um, either Kenny G's breathless album (because i've always loved smooth jazz), or Toni Braxton's secrets. Toni Braxton's first 2 albums are definitely in my top five of all time. 8)

 

Girl now you're speaking my language. Don't make me get those glitter parachute pants out of the closet.

 

C'mon now no hating on Hammer, those pants will make a fashion comeback someday--mark my words :lol:

 

Thank you that breathless album took a long time LOL!!

 

Damn! Qsassy, You would be what we call in the hood a
whitegirl with soul!!!!!

 

:shock: No, sir. They both suck so much.







But, seriously, if you like them, that's fine.

 

ha ha.. you are too funny

ah huh.. I liked them about as much as I like Eminem

 

double post..

 

Well I don't like the music to make points..but this music speaks to my soul

 

My favourites would have to be



Monica I love her




And Boyz II Men





And K-Ci and JoJo
