My Dear R&P Comrades...What is the greatest Divorce/Breakup Album of all time?

1- Blood On The Tracks-Bob Dylan

songs like "Idiot Wind" and "Lonesome"

2-Shoot Out The Lights-Richard and Linda Thompson

"did she jump or was she pushed" "walking on a wire" and "renege"

3-Here My Dear-Marvin Gaye

we all know the story behind this one... (shudder)

4-Tunnel Of Love-Bruce Springsteen

a song cycle that's charts a relationship

5-North Of A Miracle-Nick Heyward

"the Kick of love" every song on this album deals with the despair over a marriage gone bad

6- Heartless Moon--Brendan Gamble

27 songs of hopelessness and depression caused by the break-up of a marrige

I will nominate "The Razor's Edge" by AC/DC. Here's why:

1. A major part of the album was influenced by frontman Brian Johnson's divorce with his first wife.

2. The songs are very relevant. Thunderstruck relates to running off to see Texas dancers, Money Talks is about seducing women with money, and some songs such as Goodbye and Good Riddance to Bad Luck and Mistress For Christmas really don't need an explanation.

3. It's just an awesome album.

Renegades by Rage Against the Machine

"Ma, wherever you seen a cop beatin' a guy

Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries

Wherever there's a fight against the blood and hatred in the air

Look for me Ma, I'll be there

Wherever somebody's strugglin' for a place to stand

For a decent job or a helpin' hand

Wherever somebody's strugglin' to be free

Look in their eyes, Ma, you'll see me"

You'll see me"

"Here My Dear" by Marvin Gaye. A bitter album, maybe because the profits were going to his ex-wife.

Tammy Wynette the d i v o r c e lp reason obvious really.

"I Used to Love Her" by G'n'R

"I Never Loved Her Anyway" by Scream

From the titles do I need to justify?

Rumors - Fleetwood Mac, just think about it for a while

Powerage=AC/DC
