A female, at a vaguely controversial guess.

I knew there were more than just me who would pick Bloodflowers.

My favourite would have to be the one K-Tel would release. There's not enough room on my cd shelves for any more 'C' bands - so a '20 Golden Greats' would have to suffice

Come to think of it I own 'nun' Cure cd's just the first 3 albums on vinyl - and they live in a big wooden chest which never gets opened.

erm, so why is the one I voted for not one of those three? I worry about myself

I can only imagine.

Japanese Whispers especially LaMent/Just One Kiss/Upstairs Room

Disintegration for me.

I have been thinking long and hard about this one. Yeah, really!
In the end I chose for Disintegration. The record I play most often and with more than a few classics on it...

Had to choose between Seventeen Seconds and Pornography. In the end, 'M' made the difference.

It's actually something I wouldn't have put past you - the man who would get excited if Robert Smith farted in a brown paper bag and put it on sale.

But would he inhale?

Just read this & it's not a bad little summary.

By the way where is Japanese Whispers so I can vote for it? Or I'll have to vote for 2nd best album, Bloodflowers

Many (not including me) would argue that it's not a "true" album, but a singles & b-sides collection.

In the light of this I've been giving disintegration some airtime recently, and I do agree that it is a magnificent album. Thanks for reminding me. (Still Faith for me tho. just)

So just seven votes out of 47 for anything released in the past twenty years. Given 's comments on Star Wars recently, another good reason not to put out any new studio recordings. I still hope that Bob and the boys will be back on form next time out, but probably a good example of hope over expectation.
