I never thought Unplugged was that great. Good songs but the recording didn't seem very good at all. Harvest Moon didn't grab me either, but I haven't given it much of a chance.
Yeah, I know Neil wasn't happy with his bands performance at the unplugged gig. I had it on cassette at first and was listening to it all day long. "The Old Laughing Lady" is one I really like that way and "Like a Hurricane" with the pump organ, pretty awesome. Also liked "Helpless" "Long May You Run" and "From Hank to Hendrix" they're all fantastic songs unplugged. "Harvest Moon" is a gem next to the original "Harvest" itself in my esteem. "Unplugged" and "Harvest Moon" (and later the "Chumbawamba's" one) were given to me by the woman I was living with at the time guess they're special for the sentimental thing you might say. And I will add "Sleeps With Angels" to my list. I seem to have forgotten Clapton's unplugged too which I really liked. I know some they call the Layla unplugged the "Armani version". They're fools

Kula Shaker - K
I remember for some reason being the really uncool kid for listening to Paul Weller (we're talking a time where happy hardcore is the height of the European charts here). And for some other reason I keep on going to Kula Shaker concerts the last few months, they should've played this much over here when I was 16.
I can dig Zooropa, but wouldn't add it to my list, however you reminded me of 'Pop' which everyone thought was ######, but I liked it...

I think you're combining 'Superunknown' with 'Badmotorfinger', but I'll add Badmotorfinger to my list as well! The opening low D crash on 'Jesus christ pose' with that cool twiddly bit... hmmm
Autechre - Tri Repetae++
But of course!
As much as I don't care for the RHCP right now, that album remains great. Actually gave it a spin again the other day. And I agree with everyone who said 'OK computer', it took a decade to grow on me, but it did.
And Alex is right, we all listened to Oasis' What's the story and we all liked it. Let's see if I can find the disc

Word man. I hate the new stuff, it's so fake. I wish they'd go back to the way they were before. Stadium Arcadium is such crap
Harry Allen on you bitch, I believe no hype.

+1 Such an amazing album.
Passion and Warfare (1990) and Alien Love Secrets from 1995 by Steve Vai are a couple of amazing discs from that era as well.

Surely you're not talking about 90's albums as a whole?...

No but a lot of albums from older artists started becoming compilations and stuff I noticed, the Unplugged album by Clapton for one.
