War Of The Worlds: My favourite album ever, I have the original Vinyl, cassette, MiniDisc, about 8 different versions on CD (all remasters and original) all the remixes, the games on PC and PlayStation, the live DVD... you name it ive most likely got it lol, loved it since I was a kid and it always has a special place in my heart, Jeff Wayne really created the most amazing album ever with this one, and to him I extend a very special thank you from a loyal and obsessive fan, thanks Jeff! Here to the next 30 Years of WOTW! UUUUUULLLLLLAAAAA!! Spartacus: Another amazing album from Jeff, admittedly not the same scale as WOTW but its definately an amazing and beautiful album which I hope will get a special edition re-release treatment soon, Catherine Zeta-Jones & Anthony Hopkins are perfect on it, I highly recommend it to any fans of Jeff's.
