Second Coming - The Stone Roses
While the first album exhibits what makes them so special, Second Coming is them being badass. Love Spreads, Breaking Into Heaven, and Good Times are freaking brilliant. Ten Storey Love Song is great as well, but yes some songs on the album are very lack luster, compared to the first album where Don't Stop was the only one, and that was just Waterfall reversed. It also proves that Squire is one of the most underrated guitarists ever.

The Fireman - Electric ArgumentsVery nearly 7 years old, I still think this holds up as one of the best post-Beatles albums. The sonic textures are the most interesting of the majority of all post-Beatles albums, with the producer Youth (worked with The Verve and Embrace) proving to be McCartney's best collaborator after Lennon and George Martin. In terms of the actual songwriting, there is a looseness to it that is most unlike McCartney (whose latter work often tries too hard to replicate past glories and is, let's be honest, fairly coservative in its approach) but as a result, it feels more spontaneous and natural than the majority of his post-Beatles work. Youth himself is an underrated producer (in fact, he would be great for Noel!) and pushes boundaries for McCartney that is rarely seen with his post-Beatles career (that goes for ALL Beatles to be fair). Well worth a listen just to show there is still a lot of talent that can be exploited from Macca!

Talk Talk - Laughing Stock and Spirit of Eden These last two albums by them are genius. Up there with The Beatles, Miles Davis, and Velvet Underground in terms of challenging genre boundaries and overall sounds. Its got the craft of A Dark Side of The Moon, but there's a haunting spiritual quality to these releases. I really recommend these two to anyone who is a fan of The Verve and Radiohead, and honestly just music in general. Take your time with them, and give your attention to the detailed arrangements of the songs. Revisit, I'm still discovering things about it nearly 7 years after first hearing them. All time great albums, that are massively influential but damn these two are easily top 100 albums in my opinion.
Roberta Flack - Take One One of the forgotten great 60's vocal/jazz albums. The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face is perhaps the single most beautiful song of all time. Incredible. Tryin' Times is a jazzy blues gospel plea and the sassy Compared to What has one of my favorite drum grooves of all times.
Divine Fits - A Thing Called Divine Fits Naturally as a Spoon fan I dig this album, but damn its just a tight package of electro synth pop/rock. My Love Is Real kills with its climbing tension. Like Ice Cream has a delightful bob and Would That Not Be Nice is a tasty piece of pop that glimmers with its oscillating groove.
The Cardigans - First Band On The Moon This is my favorite pure pop album of the 90's. Its a knock out in terms of compact pop songwriting. Love their breezy aesthetic and the fact that although its pop music its still being played by organic instruments gives it a nostalgic feel for me. Just has a distinct almost naive 90's lighthearted pop feel to it. However if you actually listen to the lyrics they can be really twisted, aching, and descriptively personal. Lovefool is all-time great pop song, but they can do a variety of styles/moods: Wispy, zany, angsty. Like all songs on this album, and I love most of them and their lounge cover of Iron Man is hypnotically awesome.
