Queen II, side Black
The twelve dreams of Dr Sardonicus, side 1, by Spirit

But he's still on the Mount Rushmore of greatest lead singers ever.

Don't feel bad. I didn't know about Judas Priest until it came out in the news. I guess I never made the connection between their outfits and the Blue Oyster Bar scene from Police Academy. seems fairly obvious in retrospect... but at the time I just thought they were trying to look tough. and who gives a shit. they rock.

Agree with many of the preceding, have to add Peter Gabriel - Security, Laurie Anderson - United States, and Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of the War of the Worlds.

Oooohhh. Yes! That has to be one of the finest albums ever made.

Funny, I'm reading The War of the World for the nth time (because it was free on Kindle)
But I've listened to the album so many more times, it's almost like finding lines of poetry quoted in a book or letter.

The album terrified me as a child.
I started listening to it again just to de-sensitise myself, only to find I enjoyed it.

I want to see the stage show very, very much.
