Ok, so, songs that reference bands:
[b]
Whip That Ghost[/b] (LTEC) has a sort of Allman Brothers feel to it (up for debate, sure), the title sounds like Whipping Post (Allman brothers tune).

[b]Starmelt/Lovelight[/b] (AADAP) is two-part. Lovelight is a Grateful Dead song, and the line in the song "Sound sun pleasure rules the world" is a reference to Sun Ra. So is the album title. Actually its shamelessly stolen, more or less

[b]Hey Jane[/b] (TU), is of course their Hey-song (Hey Joe, Hey Jude etc.), referencing Hendrix and The Beatles etc.

Any other obscure references?

Tell me if you agree

[color=#FFCC00]Art Ensemble of Chicago - Les Stances à Sophie (1970)

...and what about RUSH?

Timothy Timothy.

Well,

[u]Heartbreaker[/u] (BARRACUDA) -----> [i]Heart of the Sunrise[/i] by [color=#CC0033]Yes[/color] (FRAGILE)
[u]Go To California[/u] (PHANEROTHYME) -----> [i]Light My Fire[/i] by [color=#CC0033]The Doors[/color] (THE DOORS)
[u]Junior[/u] (DEMON BOX) -----> [i]Green Mind[/i] by [color=#CC0033]Dinosaur jr.[/color] (GREEN MIND)
[u]That Ol' White Line[/u] (THE INTERNATIONAL TUSSLER SOCIETY) -----> [i]Jessica[/i] by [color=#CC0033]The Allman Brothers Band[/color] (BROTHERS AND SISTERS)

and what about the themes? There's a lot of "space" all overe there...

I've read somewhere that Whip that Ghost is a tribute to/inspired by Allman brothers' Jessica... the structure of the song and the melody is very similar allthough the bass riff & the title clearly points to Whipping Post.

Kill Devil Hills = Teen Age Riot (Sonic Youth).

The list is growing with Must Haves!
Altough I already own a lot of the albums mentioned, it's good to see wich albums I still have to buy!
I like this thread.
Great to see Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band on the list, Trout Mask is his most influencial album allthough I personaly prefer Lick My Decals Off.
Greetings, Christiaan

What about Deep Purple - Burn??

Little Lucid Moments Suite is Burn on steroids and acid.

The rule is only one album for each author...

so we have to choose:

[color=#FFFF00]CHALLENGE[/color]

[b]Deep Purple[/b] - [color=#FF0000]Burn[/color] (1974) [size=x-large]VS[/size] [b]Deep Purple[/b] - [color=#FF0000]Live in Japan[/color] (1972)

and the winner is...

i can't belive that nobody has mentioned sabbath yet. it would be unforgiveable to leave them out, if you think of the songs they have influenced (mountain, hogwash, the wait.....)

Black Sabbath - Paranoid (1970)

You're right happy knappy

WE HAVE TO ADD

[color=#FF0000]Black Sabbath - Paranoid (1970)[/color]

but the challenge continues,

Deep Purple - Burn (1974) VS Deep Purple - Live in Japan (1972)

choose...

Deep Purple - Live In Japan
