An unwelcome lapse in circadian rhythm had me lying in bed, sans sleep. After several hours of mental meandering, I began compiling a list of my favorite albums. This seemed like as good a place as any to list them.
These are in no particular order. Some are old memories, some are just great albums. All are albums I can listen to in their entirety.
Dave Matthews Band - Under the Table and Dreaming
REM - Automatic for the People
Moby - Everything is Wrong
Live - Throwing Copper
Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes
Blood, Sweat and Tears - Greatest Hits
Portishead - Dummy
Def Leppard - Hysteria
Bela Fleck and the Flecktones - Left of Cool
Sublime - Sublime
Tower of Power - Soul Vaccination
Green Day - American Idiot
Journey - Infinity
They Might Be Giants - Flood
Fall Out Boy - From Under the Cork Tree
James Taylor - Sweet Baby James
Not much new stuff on there. I'm sad to say that I rarely buy whole albums these days. Technology really has changed the way we listen to music.
I'd love to hear from some of you - tell me some of your favorites?

I think this is the first time I've read someone citing "Infinity" as their favorite Journey album. This CD has been a favorite of mine since I was 13! I think it's probably one of the best rock albums out there. :)

P.S. Here's my addition, but I doubt anyone will know this: Genesis-A Trick Of The Tail
