    Hi guys,

    Need your help with something. I need to compile a list of albums which share the same name as other albums by different artists. Not having a lot of musical knowledge, I wouldn't know of that many off the top of my head (...okay, zero).

    Also, Greatest Hits and The Best Of... don't count :P

    Anyone know of any??

    Thanks!

    Do you mean across artists only or by the same artist. for example i think 3 of Weezers albums are called Weezer and either 3 or 4 of Peter Gabriels albums are called Peter Gabriel.

    Yes, exactly this kind of thing... Sorry I wasn't clearer in the original post. (just edited it now for clarity)

    Albums by different artists that have the same name.

    Cheers Driver, you got me off to a good start!

    Trickier than I thought. 2 below but they might both be invalid as some are the title of greatest hits collections (all bar Ryan Adams I think). sorry..

    Duran Duran and Neil Young - Decade
    Ryan Adams and Abba - Gold

    Yeah, it's like Seven by Soft Machine, James, Bob Seger and Tony Banks as opposed to 7 by Madness and Enrique Iglesias.
