Hey, will you be showing Queen’s “Classic Albums” where they profile their “A Night @ The Opera” album?.

Very disappointed that you haven’t included any of Hawkwinds classic psychadelic early output....especially ‘Space Ritual’.  This band have always been true innovators and are experimental in the real sense of the word...they’re still going strong and packing them in.  The electronic/trance/dance scene owes much to Hawkwind’s brand of space-rock so c’mon guys use your heads when you do the next series and give this great band some credit.  Djmandythe witch.

I’m not implying that ‘classic albums’ should be all about ‘rock music’, but Phil Collins ‘Face Value’ are you serious?  Whoever does the research for this programme seriously needs psychiatric help.

I know people have personal favourites and so on. But no Led Zeppelin anywhere. That is ridiculous they’ve sold more albums than anyone on your list probably,and if your talkin about influential zeppelin must surely figure in that equation aswell!

I’d say ‘Suede’ by Suede. At least from a British point of view. It kickstarted the move away from Grunge music. Radiohead, Blur and Oasis all great in their way but Suede’s debut was the beginning of a major shift in British music.

I’m gutted I’ve just caught the end of Classic Albums Fleetwood Mac again.  And I’ll be at work this afternoon when it’s on again.  Will it be repeated again??  I don’t have Sky+ :(

Just because its called classic albums doesn’t mean that its done in order of importance or that the insinuation is that every album left off the list is somehow not classic, it just means the ones reviewed ARE classics in their own right.  One thing has nothing to do with the other.

Yawn -the usual middle aged white rock fans record collection..Some great records there sure,but come on Judas Priest???!!! Public Enemys “ Nation Of Millions” would have outflanked most of these “Rock” albums on pure rock n roll-abilty!! and no Led Zeppelin...! No Bitches Brew..!,No Endtroducing..! it should have been called “Classic White Rockfan Albums”.

Yow’v all missed the point. Heavy rock in its truest form (not warmed over blues) began with Birmingham’s magnificent Black Sabbath. Paranoid?

Having read Mark’s comment I’ve felt the urge to complain that the recent MOBO AWARDS once again completely ignored the Wurzels. Clearly any attempt to narrow selection parameters in order to make meaningful comparisons is pointless.

surely the series has missed a great opportunity to celebrate one of the best ever albums of all time ELECTRIC WARRIOR by the superb and much over looked by the music industry and BRIT AWARDS which is T.REX

I would just like to say that there is no such thing as a classic band or album. If you take a look at any album from such pretend greats,mostly hyped by fake radio or tv or so called music critics who have not got a clue about music, you will be lucky to find more than 5 songs on the album you like. When you add up all their back catalogue you’ll probably find 12 songs in total that you still listen to.It’s a lot of nonsense this classic,legend or god like status. Only sad lonely, gullible individuals believe that their is such a thing as classic or legend status.

No Kim Wilde,Rick Astley or Chesney Hawkes what’s the world coming to! They only seem to concentrate on albums with some creative production and talent involved I can’t believe it, what no Britney, Ha ha!
