so much great music came out....
this one came out January 24, 1994 in the UK..probably took a bit longer to make it out in the US...ended up on waxtrax of all labels....
I always wish they'd included Rez on this.... the dirty epic/cowgirl CD single which does include it is fantastic... i still think the best introduction to underworld.

I guess if you want to draw an analogy to America, 1991 in America (Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Soundgardren breakthrough and the alternative explosion, Metallica release the Black Album, Guns N Roses return) is equal to 1994 in Britain. It's tough to beat these four:

Yes it was. And despite being a big music fan in 1994, I only ever owned one of those albums and none of Brian's.
I guess I was Azaghal while Azaghal was still in diapers.

Albums like Bush's "Sixteen Stone" and Live's "Throwing Copper" are perfect for that type of thing...and Courtney Love could get Hole back together as well. Are the Cranberries still together - "No Need to Argue" is another candidate.

This always makes me nostalgic for 1994:

Ashley Savage. I followed her career fairly closely for a while.

And now you follow her from the court-mandated 100 feet.

"Sixteen Stone" and "Throwing Copper" probably sold more than any other album in this thread. At least in America. And probably spawned more "hit" singles, too. "No Need to Argue" probably sold a lot too. That was the one with "Zombie" wasn't it? That song was huge.

Was just reading the File Under: Easy Listening chapter of Bob Mould's book today. He surprisingly wasn't crazy about how it came out and felt as though the process was rushed. I think it holds up pretty well even given the hilarious lifting of entire musical phrases from MBV; the most obvious being "Your Favorite Thing."

seriously...I remember talking to Bob beore his solo show at Georgetown and he talked about Loveless and how it wouldn't be fully appreciated for 20 years.. I find FUEL to be a big letdown....
another album I think was top notch but nobody has mentioned is Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds Let Love In.....superlative.. I can remember buying that at the old Tower Records in Tyson and being blown away...
I guess Guided By Voices Bee Thousand has also been mentioned....
and how about the Mountain Goats Zopilote Machine?
so many albums that came out in 1994 had a big impact on me...
-
Johnny Cash's American Recordings came out in 94 and I think it was a very important album....not only did it really first introduce me to his music (and revitalize his career for a great final act) in an album form and not just a few songs you heard on the radio... but I think it may have made many people take a new look at country music.. i wonder if alternative country would have happened without this album...i don't mean would people have recorded it but would people have bought it..

Manu Chao's Clandestino is his first solo record but arguably his last one "with" Mano Negra was a Mano Negra record in name only... to me this album fits in very well with Clandestino...I didn't hear it until later tough but its a good one

I think you all are forgetting the best album of 1994.
The Brooklyn Side by the Bottle Rockets
also, not their best, but it was their debut....
Hitchhike to Rhome by Old 97's.
Also worth mention:
Tulare Dust - A Songwriter's Tribute to Merle Haggard
Iris DeMent - My Life
The Mavericks -What a Crying Shame
Johnny Cash - American Recordings
Todd Snider - Songs for the Daily Planet
Portishead ? Dummy
Jeff Buckley ? Grace
-
Yes, Iris Dement's is a stunner.....I must have 5 copies..
-
Underworld's "Dubnobasswithmyheadman" was the first thing I thought of when I saw this thread.
also
Bark Psychosis - Hex (Seriously, one of the best)
Primal Scream - Give Out But Don't Give Up
Orbital - Snivilisation
Sunny Day Real Estate - Diary
-

Oh, man: Crumble by Butterglory.

upon further reflection I made a mistake when I said Casa Babylon was Manu's first solo album all but in name..I meant the King of Bongo album...
my apologies..

Sounds like you are making a list of 1994 from your view today not your view of what was good in 1994 when you were in 1994.

I saw Iris Dement at this past years Newport Folk. First I heard of her.

Can't believe I forgot that one too.
it did come out in oct of 93...Anodyne - Uncle Tupleo
that album was in heavy rotation and had a big influence for the next 10 years of my music listening

The performance had next to no one at it. So I am guessing I am not the only one to have never heard of her before. But she was playing at the same time as Shovels and Rope. That might have lead to the no show crowd. Are you truthfully telling me you listened to Iris Dement in 1994?

oh come on now... even I would admit Iris was a critics darling about 93-95 and then faded...
10,000 maniacs covered let the mystery be on MTV Unplugged.. I think with David Byrne guesting too... that's when I first really noticed Iris Dement...but I could see how people wouldn't know her.. she singlehandedly destroyed her career... after The Way I hould came out she didn't record any new original material for like 15 years or more! and she sorta dissapeared completely for a decade..

I have never read a critics review of music. Maybe that is why I missed out.

What a great year. it would be impossible to narrow down a top 10.
Did Kyuss -Sky Valley get a mention earlier?

She suffers from writers block and battles depression, I believe.

Jubilee Band" a/k/a Black Crowes, two nights of Rev HH).
Oh, and Woodstock '94 too.
