    Default 10 albums everyone must have

    Ok name ten albums you think everyone who likes rock must have. I havent made my list yet but I figured Id get the ball rolling.

    Its hard to pick which beatle or beatles albums to include. Sgt Pepper being a deffinite must as its the album that changed rock and roll forever.

    Also a much overlooked group here on these boards would probably be the Beach Boys whos Pet Sounds album would also deseeve mention for this reason.

    No need to rate them in any order. Just ten albums you think are a must. Id just like to see what some of you are really into.


    Some tough choices to make. For instance I feel Whos Next is a must but then so is Quadraphania and I only have 10 spots. So ill probably have to pick just one as a I want to have a more rounded representation. In other words if you wanted to introduce someone to rock what 10 albums would you tell them to buy. Please no more than ten.

    Also please no greatest hits albums.
    I have nothing against the womens movement. Especially when Im walking behind it.

    The Beatles broke up 35 years ago. What do you think us old guys keep buying their 15 albums over and over?
