Your Arsenal by Morrissey

Rocking and rolling with morrissey, who would want more

Haut de gamme / Koweït, rive gauche by Koffi Olomide

The music was groovy with strong melodies

West coast is heavy in this one

Paranoid by Black Sabbath

Just the beginning of an era, awesome album

The Rise & Fall by Madness

Was surprised when Our House played. Was not aware it was on this album. The rest of the album stayed interesting throughout

Mr. Tambourine Man by The Byrds

I’ll Feel A Whole Lot Better is probably my favorite track on the album. The Byrds might’ve brought more attention to Bob Dylan but I always felt they were piggybacking off him at points. Still a great album

Famous album with some great songs but as a whole, doesn’t live up to the hype

Not bad at all. Have heard many things about her but never really get music. There were some great songs on this album

Cypress Hill by Cypress Hill

Closer by Joy Division

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder

Just one of the absolute greatest of all time. Though I will say there are a couple of songs that go on a little longer than I would like, it’s okay because they are great songs. Ambitious in length and material and yet it includes a plethora of songs that are as well known as anything.

KE*A*H** (Psalm 69) by Ministry

Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo by Devo

A very curious album with sounds that probably had never been heard before. Very cool

Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul by Otis Redding

Practically the definitive 60s soul album. Loaded with a few covers but every song is distinct and made his own. Long live Otis

One of the beginnings of rock and roll documented and a great album with loads of influential songs to be found on it

Unapologetically 80s. Interesting track placement but generally enjoyable

Reign In Blood by Slayer

Fast and heavy, what more do you need

A Short Album About Love by The Divine Comedy

Deserter's Songs by Mercury Rev

Some really great moments on the album that overshadow some of the lesser “trippy” elements

Duck Rock by Malcolm McLaren

I’m not sure how important this album was in the timeline of what was going on when it came out, but I feel like it captured an environment pretty well. Very cool and interesting throughout.

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins

Starts off with what I think to be their best song and maintains a level of good throughout.

Shaka Zulu by Ladysmith Black Mambazo

Stunning harmonies, made the Acapella aspect much more tolerable

Architecture And Morality by Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark

Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan

Lyrically genius and musically soothing

Great album with a good sonic landscape. Holds my favorites of their songs

Face to Face by The Kinks

Good classic Kinks album, real raw sound

Pretty standard for a Lou Reed album, and there’s nothing wrong with that

Absolutely classic and important album, to me at least. The grooves on this album are superb and arrangement is everything. Everyone was on

With Gilmour and Waters producing a good chinch of this one, you can really hear where they were heading as well. Great album, practically Pink Floyd

Quite progressive, always kept interesting

Cool slam-like lyrics, classic beats

One of the greatest blues players showing you why. Album lives up to any hype it could receive with a true performer on display.

Aja by Steely Dan

The sound is just immaculate and the songs are fantastic. Can’t ask for more

Dance Mania by Tito Puente

Great rhythms and parts to produce highly enjoyable songs

GI by Germs

An important album for LA/hardcore punk, and it still sounds great and powerful

Not bad at all, noisy but in a good way

Bitte Orca by Dirty Projectors

Great harmonies with interesting music to go along with it

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens

Great songwriting, acoustic mastery

80s goodness with a twist that excels it forward, great album

Fragile by Yes

Cohesive album with great parts throughout and some iconic songs

Central Reservation by Beth Orton

A lot different than I thought it would be based on the couple of songs I knew from it. I say that in the best possible way

An album not talked too much about, though I believe it was his best. Love this album and wish even more people would listen to it.

Garage rock greatness

All Directions by The Temptations

(Pronounced 'Leh-'Nérd 'Skin-'Nérd) by Lynyrd Skynyrd
