i thought this would be a thread about albums that never came would like beach boys "smile" (i know), so i will make a list of those:

supposedly dennis wilson recorded a record that never came out called "bamboo".

john fahey's unreleased "the nut house" and "azalea city memories".

syd barrett's post-"barrett" LP truely lost masters.

Neil Young: "Live 1970", "Homegrown", "Chrome Dreams", "Island In The Sun", "Old Ways (I)", "Times Square" (damn, neil...)

etc...

Danny Himself · 12.15.2006, 04:05 AM

I would have said 'Smile', too.

I think the Muffs were/are pretty good, and nobody ever seems to talk about them.

I think I might have to replace Disraeli Gears with Their Satanic Majesties' Request (even though I don't have a real copy of the latter, yet).

narlus · 12.15.2006, 10:50 PM

60s - xhol caravan _Mother Fuckers GMBH_

70s - German Oak (self-titled)

80s - this kind of punishment _a beard of bees_

90s - angel'in heavy syrup _I_ (or II, III or IV)

00s - Jim Collins (S/T)

porkmarras · 12.15.2006, 10:55 PM

I can only think of this one right now.I big inspiration on Bjork,apparently.

Пятхъдесят Шест · 12.15.2006, 10:57 PM

What is that Pork?

porkmarras · 12.15.2006, 11:03 PM

A mess of an album.I've picked it up from a bin for only 50p not knowing that not only a snippet of it would be used on one of the first adverts for 'The Crazy Frog' ringtones but Bjork would be inspired by it while recording her Vespertine album.Imagine being tuned into a german radio run by hepitits patients and you get an idea.One of the strangest records i rave my buttocks to.

TheMadcapLaughs · 12.15.2006, 11:20 PM

From the 60's, Soft Machine-Volume 1 and 2. Soooo good.

You know the cover alone gives me this feel. Something I should seek out?

Wel,you are another one addicted to weirdsville so i'm 100% sure that you'd love this record.I could write more about it but i'm tired and can only offer hints.
