This is so hard to do but here it goes in no order whatsoever. Albums pretty much have to fit into a period of my life that they seem to have been a big part of since I must have begun listening to them at that period.
1. Radiohead - OK Computer / I can listen to it over and over again and its still fresh and I still enjoy the fuck out of it. The Bends is a close close second. This is the album freshest in my mind and the most recent besides Our Lady Peace among my favorites.
2. Billy Joel - The Stranger / My favorite Billy Joel song, "And So It Goes" is not on this album but some of my other favorites are. I love all his albums but The Stranger has the most from beginning to end including Movin Out (my song), Just The Way You Are, Scenes From An Italian Restaurant, Vienna, Only The Good Die Young, and She's Always A Woman. I still remember as a little kid listening to my father play this album on his 8-track machine in our old living room. My early childhood is Billy Joel, Fleetwood Mac, Marvin Gaye, pretty much the adult contemporary pop of the late 70's, early 80's.
3. Our Lady Peace - Happiness Is Not A Fish That You Can Catch / I fucking love this album. I thought OLP was a one hit wonder with Starseed and Superman's Dead until someone turned me onto them and converted me. Now i'm a die hard fan. They are amazing live and this album was the one that got me into them. I can listen to it front to back over and over again.
4. Nirvana - Nevermind / When this album broke, alternative music ended as we know it. This album was too powerful to be ignored by the mainstream. Suddenly a sesmic shift in music took place that had not happened since Rap appeared in the early 70's. I still listen to this album and still get chills listening to the waves of sound that grind from Krist and Kurt's fingers.
5. A Tribe Called Quest - Midnight Marauders / - I first got into hip hop back when Ice T, Public Enemy, ED O.G. and Da Bulldogs, Brand Nubian, De La Soul, and other were just getting started but this album stands out as one of my all time favorite hip hop albums, with Notorious BIG's Ready To Die, 2Pac's All Eyez On Me, Nas's Illmatic, Beasties's Paul's Boutique & Ill Communication, and Outkast's ATLiens coming in real close. Hip hop, real old school hip hop (ok we all know Melle Mel and Furious 5 and Cold Krush Crew, etc are the true old school) well at least old school meaning the music I grew up on is such a part of my life it has to be in my top 5.
Honorable mentions: Counting Crowes - August And Everything After / Incubus - Make Yourself / Sex Pistols - Never Mind The Bollocks, Its The Sex Pistols / The Clash - London Calling / Rolling Stones - Exile On Main Street / Pink Floyd - The Wall / Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here / Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon / Weezer - The Blue Album / Neil Young - On The Beach / Pixies - Doolittle / Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced?
I could go on for days. I really could. I fucking love music.
