Sorry MoH you can have one, at a push, and only one Beatles album. Most of them contain a couple of duff tracks anyway and are over-rated beyond belief.

As for best compilation ever, your Motown one is very very good, however I'd raise that the STAX singles box set, and of course I can only assume that you've never heard the now almost mythical in status "Cluck Cluck Gibber Gibber".

"Over-rated"? It's become fairly common on here at least for folk to think that they're being daringly iconoclastic by slating them, thereby actually revealing not much other than a) how they've probably only ever heard the singles and b) they've little sense of musical context, IMHO.

But whatever, it really is their loss...all I'll say by way of illustration is that the bloke from the Chemical Brothers plays Tomorrow Never Knows - recorded on four tracks in 1966 - at the end of raves and gets saucer-eyed teens asking which bangin' new mix that is.

Besides, I can't think of a many albums at ALL that don't have at least one slightly duff/filler track on it. :controversial:

Not Great Escape, that has to rank as one of the worst albums they produced. I'd go with Modern Life Is Rubbish meself.

I know its not everyone's favourite but I love Great Escape. Parklife is also fantastic
