Your All-Time Top 10 Favorite Albums
Ok, continuing off of the momentum of the All-Time Top 10 songs thread. Name your Top 10 favorite Albums / CD's of all-time. This will hopefully be easier than the songs thread, but still somewhat challenging, I'm sure. It's meant to be difficult.
Here's mine (in no particular order): Paul Simon - Graceland Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique Radiohead - The Bends Grateful Dead - American Beauty Counting Crows - August and Everything After Bob Dylan - Bringing It All Back Home Jane's Addiction - Ritual de lo Habitual Beach Boys - Pet Sounds Guns N' Roses - Appetite For Destruction Fleetwood Mac - Rumours I know I'm leaving out a bunch more. The Wall comes to mind, so does Dark Side of the Moon...ugh! I'll probably slap myself when someone posts their list and say "DOH!", but those are the 10 that came out of my head first.

Re: Your All-Time Top 10 Favorite Albums
To me, this means "entire album, top to bottom," not "3 or 4 great singles and a bunch of mediocre filler."
--- Nevermind - Nirvana Appetite for Destruction - G'N'R Something to Write Home About - The Get Up Kids The Joshua Tree - U2 Gentlemen - Afghan Whigs El Oso - Soul Coughing Green Mind - Dinosaur Jr. Doolittle - The Pixies Licensed to Ill - Beastie Boys Tim - The Replacements
