    @swaye Puppets is one of the great heavy stuff albums of all time and in a lot of years it would get my vote. But Graceland was the best record of 1986 and it's not all that close. It was the soundtrack of our family road trips. Metallica was for the scary looking hesher dudes at the High School.

    I have a soft spot for that Poison record, it's great for what it is.

    Master is damned near perfect.

    Doesn't really count...

    But still, hooj for me.

    AC DC is the GOAT one trick pony. But they ran of ideas after FTATR. Mid 80s AC DC sucks. Even @dflea agrees with me.

    I wasn't secure enough in my manhood to mention Poison but they had some good stuff

    Agree. The title track is the exception that proves the rule.

    Sometimes you just run into a buzzsaw. Master is that buzzsaw. Magnum Opus level shit.



    Bought the tape on release week. Only knew it was release week because Hit Parader, the metal magazine, dutifully reported it. Zero airplay, and zero MtV, you had to just know who Metallica was back then. Popped in the tape, hit play, and then Battery started. Um, yeah, it was like being kicked in the teeth by about 3000 pounds of pissed off bull. Then Master starts. Epic. By the tim I got to Sanitarium I think I was shadow boxing. And Disposable Heroes and Orion made the back end stand up for all tim. Just a great great album. My favorite ever. Any REAL Metallica fans favorite ever. Peak Metallica.

    I'm really not a metal fan as a rule. These guys had something that rose above and it peaked here.

    Almost. Flick of the Switch is also a pretty decent album. After that though, they struggled to put out a good album, even if they did manage a few big hit songs along the way. The Bon Scott albums are SO good, though, that if they never had a good song after that, they'd still be one of the best rock bands ever - and easily one of the best live bands.

    If You Want Blood You’ve Got It is to this day one of my favorite live albums, and was my intro to AC/DC...Whole Lotta Rosie...RIP BON
