**Niklas** · 10-25-2006, 05:20 PM

The thread was precipitated by Paul's Boutique. I listened to it tonight for the first time in i don't know how long....maybe eight years.

Every fucking song on that album is a lock. But I gotta say the same thing about low end theory, too.

or eminem, the marshall mathers lp

**r-c-e** · 10-25-2006, 06:13 PM

Although I'm not a gangsta fan per se, I would have to say Doggystyle is one of my highest rated albums, so much gold on that release.

Pauls Boutique and Low End Theory are also great choices. Illmatic is another one.

he has a 25 song greatest hits cd and they could easily add another 25 to that list. there aren't too many artists or bands that make that many great songs in my opinion.
