Name the genre and I’ll give you one.
Edit: not like make the album, I’ll just tell you about one
Acid jazz
20 Jazz Funk Greats
Uhh... Are we thinking of same album?
I mean, I just googled it to double check and only one thing came up
Throbbing Gristle isn't the first name that comes to my mind when someone says acid jazz. I like the idea of this person putting it on expecting Brand New Heavies and getting atonal noise.
P. Orridge is rolling in their grave… but like happy rolling
Do deep house but deep house for somebody who normally likes folk Punk
I think TBNH by The Brand New Heavies may only have a less than optimal track but other than that it's absolutely fire
Alternative/ grunge.
Or movie OST.
Nirvana unplugged in new York
Eh… the best stuff on their unplugged set was the covers. Bowie and Meat Puppets tracks. Hard to give an album a “best of its kind” designation when the best tracks are covers
That's a weird qualifier. The album is perfect. The question wasn't "is it perfect if you omit cover songs?"
Alt rock is broad, but if we’re going with grunge, I’d say Nevermind, although purists will say that’s not totally grunge. You run into similar issues with Ten. Both albums are insanely good start to finish though.
In terms of movies, Bernard Hermann or Ennio Moriconne. Both had some bombs and also some bomb ass stuff. When they were on point they were amazing.
Both Ten and Nevermind are, for me at least, perfect albums. In fact, Ten is the first one I thought of when I read the thread title.
When it comes to soundtracks, Moriconne's "The Mission" is also an example of perfection for me.
Lord of the Rings OST by Howard Shore
I find Arrival’s soundtrack by Johann Johannsson pretty much what you would consider a perfect album. All tracks are great. Obviously it’s a matter of taste at the end of the day.
Yeah. Very atmospheric iirc. Never thought to pick it up - will give it a listen.
