Very TFI Friday era - but yes! ;D  Gets a spin at least once a week!
I thought you were one of the good ones Puck  ;D

I'm not the list police, but I couldn't name one OCS song.  No idea who they are (I think that might be a first for me on the list).

Duine Inteacht Eile

Well, personally, I'm pissing my pants in anticipation of INXS.....

And we had Enya! Christ on a bike.

Sacking OCS off for that is laughable.

There was 13 songs of hers mentioned

Enya was a hand grenade all right  :o

I only threw up  the OCS question, Wobbler and Puckoon  batted it away
You need to understand thewobbler.

He has a 20 song playlist that he listens to everyday.
He allows himself a 1 song change once a year.

Everything beyond that is completely shite.

This isn't a music thing for him. It's life.

Some astute observations there.

The playlist is about 600 deep. And I add about 15 a year.

This life choice does, I admit, make it difficult to pick up on new music.

I did though spend about 30 years collecting songs from everywhere. And none of them by Ocean Colour Scene lol.

OCS FFS. Catch yourselves on. "Mosely Shoals is an underrated classic of Britpop that was wasted on an undeserving generation who mostly only wanted to hear Wonderwall on a Friday night" etc etc

As for Bruce, simply too many classics to choose a steady three, but here goes...

Jungleland
Atlantic City (either version but full band version for singalongabilty)

You'll shit yourself when  we do Steps then  ;D

PS. Since someone added the Dubliners,  then we should  also have  Christy Moore. And the Wolfe Tones.

Luke Kelly would have a  decent solo  collection too

There is a recording of Bowie doing impersonations, one of those is Springsteen, and Bowie warms up by saying you have to speak and sing as though you are constipated or trying to hold one in, I like Springsteen but still funny.

Top 3 - this could change week by week but not Incident)

Incident on 57th Street , specifically the version broadcast February 5, 1975, The Main Point, Bryn Mawr, PA.

Jungleland - a masterpiece


Radio Nowhere


His burst of albums in the 2000's has some absolute bangers and the album Magic as a whole is a brilliant end to end listen.






Mad Mentor


J70

Impossible to pick three. I could pick three each off the majority of his albums. Even a recent, atypical album like Western Stars has a couple of songs that stand up among his best.

Born to Run is clearly one of his best and arguably his "greatest" song in terms of being a classic rock song.

Anyway, for what it's worth, random selection from his early greats:

Jungleland
Kitty's Back
Something in the Night

3 Doesn't do him Justice, at a push.
