If you could make everyone hear one album...
#1

Mine would be "Soup" by Blind Melon.

It's a shame that most people think of them as nothing more than that band with that catchy song and the Bee-girl video. Having only put 2 studio albums out, and 1 album of extras after Shannon Hoon died, I can easily say they are right up there in my top 5 favorite bands. Soup is hard to describe because it is all over the place musically. Let me just say it is music with such depth, heart, soul and intelligence. I listened to it again on the weekend and as per usual, it filled me with such overwhelming emotion.

It's a treat for sure.

The song "Soup" by Blind Melon was awesome. Especially the woodstock version, gives me goosebumps.

I'd love to branch out and name a different band than the Hip but if I had to recommend one album to someone it would have to be "Day for Night".

I'm not sure if the gang around these parts would be into it, but if anyone has even a passing interest in the industrial-genre of music, the self-titled album by Prick is amazing. Easily one of my favorite albums ever, and most no one has ever really heard of it. The album was *I think* produced by Trent Reznor from NIN and the lyrics are genius, the beats are catchy, and Kevin McMahon has an incredibly unique voice.
