I think 10cc (like The Police) are more of a singles band. Only my opinion of course. You'd probably find all you need on any one of their millions of 'greatest hits' CDs. I have this one:
which is fine, but there will be ones more comprehensive and including Godley & Creme's output, which I think would be worthwhile.

Yes, but I and II are pretty epic as well, the Runes(IV) is good but a different feel IMO.Probably my favourite stand-alone Led Zeppelin album.
Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

Ypui should try Shpongle – Tales Of The Inexpressible, it has a far eastern feel and is with Indian drums/rythmns in parts, very goo IMO.The only Shpongle album I have. It's very trippy!

There's some rubbish on it same with all their albums - 'Maxwells Silver Hammer' and 'Octopus Garden' are diabolical filler.Anita got up while Revolver was still playing, and she didn't complain. So I'm following it with this. Just side 2 though, I don't want to push it. How can anyone not like Abbey Road?

Yeah they both sound like they should accompany Ringo's narration on Thomas the Tank Engine. Both tracks are on side 1 so she was spared the discomfort.

Yes, a compilation album would be good. I know compilations, 'best of', 'greatest hits', etc. are frowned on by the cognoscenti, but I like them.I think 10cc (like The Police) are more of a singles band. Only my opinion of course. You'd probably find all you need on any one of their millions of 'greatest hits' CDs. I have this one:
which is fine, but there will be ones more comprehensive and including Godley & Creme's output, which I think would be worthwhile.
In my old age I'm getting too lazy to pick out a stand alone title and prefer to reach for a compilation disc.
