I just have Ege and it's on green vinyl and I've never seen any of the other ones on vinyl except Monster Movie and I'm not too interested in that but I'd get Tago if I saw it on vinyl so for now all I know is I like Ege and it's on green vinyl and sounds pretty funky.

Id have Soon Over Babaluma on there above Monster Movie in all honesty, i dont get that album for some reason.
I have to say Future Days, just for the title track as much as anything else. Tago Mago is great but could do with a bit more brevity, and I think Ege Bamyasi is poorly sequenced despite being amazing.
They do have the greatest rhythm section ive ever heard.

Also, im sure this was mentioned before - Kanye west nicks the melody from and samples Sing Swan Song (from Ege Bamyasi) for one of the songs on his new album

It took over a year, but I bought Ege and really liked it a lot.
You have been trustworthy.
Next year, who knows, Future Days.

Tago Mago. One of my favourite albums, period.

tough call. monster movie is great but my vote is for tago mago even if its just for hallelujah..............

and yeah, the mondays did get inspiration from it and whats wrong with that.. the rave on e.p. and the bummed album are can for the stoned baggy generation.. shame they could never come close to those records again tho......

Ege Bamyasi is my favourite. Tago Mago is their best work. Soon Over Babaluma is highly underrated.

For my personal taste I would rank them like this: Ege>Tago Mago>Soon Over Babaluma>Future Days>Monster Movie>Soundtracks.
