Favorite Rock Albums
I was careful to word the title with "favorite" instead of "best." So, here is a typical offseason music kind of thread. What are your favorite rock albums of all time? Do a top 5, top 10, top 25, top 100, I don't care...

Re: Favorite Rock Albums
I am keeping this in a rather self-defined "rock'n'roll vein" so I am not allowing myself to go into the country/folky area at all with this list. My first take, certainly omitting some of my own faves...(I think there's 25 here)
The Doors - Waiting For the Sun Aerosmith - Live Bootleg AC/DC - Back In Black Mother Love Bone - Apple AC/DC - Let There Be Rock The Dogs D'Amour - In the Dynamite Jet Saloon Hanoi Rocks - Bangkok Shocks, Saigon Shakes... Def Leppard - High'n'Dry Grateful Dead - American Beauty Led Zeppelin - II Cinderella - Long Cold Winter Hanoi Rocks - Self Destruction Blues G'n'R - Appetite for Destruction AC/DC - Powerage Joan Jett & the Blackhearts - Album Beatles - Revolver Stones - Sticky Fingers Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here Bon Jovi - New Jersey Motley Crue - Dr. Feelgood Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger Hendrix - Live at Winterland Hendrix - Electric Ladyland Pearl Jam - Ten Beatles - Rubber Soul Nirvana - Nevermind
