I can work out which users here would put audio books of their favourite Ayn Rand novels into their CD changer instead of music albums.

It depends how long you plan on keeping it I guess and I've no idea if it's true for that car but sometimes it is possible to hack one in fairly easily using the connection for the CD changer, then add a twenty quid bluetooth thingy and you're away.

Slightly O/T, and you definitely wouldn't want it as one of your six CDs, but the new Prodigy album is a lot of fun.

Yeah... Not quite that simple for a pre facelift 7 series. To get it to work you need a new radio from the facelift version of the car.

6 - George Thorogood & the Destroyers - George Thorogood & the Destroyers

Probably not much use as a recommendation though as some of those are very obvious and some would have a very narrow appeal, but it's my list. :)


Metallica black album was a contender for me, yes yes I know, sell out album etc...


The black album is probably a better choice if you're likely to have passengers too. :)

Bzzt, not an album (also not a song title either if I'm being really pedantic). Unless you're buying the CD single which seems a bit of a waste of a slot in your changer.

Gosh, you are correct, why have I always thought that was the name of the album? (extra of notwithstanding).

It is, of course, correctly referred to Burning Monk.

It's certainly better than the last one, but it's no match for any of the first four.

Post subject:  Re: The 6 CD challenge

Wait, first four? There are a couple of good tracks on 'Always Outnumbered...' but it's not a patch on the two either side of it.

Anyway,

Slayer - Reign in Blood
Capdown - Pound for the Sound
Rancid - ...And Out Come the Wolves
Rage Against the Machine - Rage Against the Machine
The Prodigy - Fat of the Land
Judas Priest - British Steel

Turns out I scratched that one from my memory. I was thinking of Invaders Must Die.

I didn't mind Invaders must Die (at the time, not listened to it an a while though).

Fat of the land has aged terribly IMO, worse than the older albums. I had it on in the car the other day and wasn't feeling it at all.

Although to be fair, when we did have Fat of the Land on heavy rotation ('back in the day') it was a better time for it... car full of mates, boot full of subs and amps, 6x9s on the shelf etc etc

Why don’t you buy more cassettes for the CD stacker, then you can have more than 6 CDs

Wait, are you saying 'Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned' is better than Fat of the Land? It sounds like you are, I just want to make sure.

You could always consider “Joy as an act of resistance” by IDLES.

Potentially best album of the year, and feels like the most important for a long time. Cracking record.

I still listen to Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, but that's about it.

I listen to about 5 smashing pumpkins songs on my playlist: Tonight, Tonight Today, 1979, Bullet with Butterfly Wings and Disarm. Like most bands I have no idea which album they are off and wasn't even sure of the titles of half of them until I checked Google Play Music...

As an aside does anyone think that Billy Corgan looks like Vincent D'onofrio as King Pin, and that Vincent D'ONOFRIO with hair looks like Mark Ruffalo?

Post subject:  Re: The 6 CD challenge

I condensed what I consider to be the best songs from Mellon collie into a single 12 track playlist, as there's a fair amount of guff across the two discs.
