While re-listening to Bitches Brew tonight it occurred to me, there’s never been anything that sounds quite like it since, and there never will be again.

What are your favorite unicorn albums?

    Ha, I came here to say Bitches Brew before seeing it was in the OP!

    I’d add Loveless by My Bloody Valentine: much-imitated, but there’s nothing quite like it.

    Also, my early '90s bias is showing here, but In Utero by Nirvana is uniquely brilliant. No one’s melded beauty and ugliness so successfully in any medium.

      hahaha no way, came across this comment as When You Sleep is playing.

      agreed, oft imitated but never matched
