#1 "Inquisition Symphony" by Apocalyptica [ 9.9 ] (Didn't get 10 because of the annoying background noise on "Nothing Else Matters" biggrin.gif )
#2 "Plays Metallica By Four Cellos" by Apocalyptica [ 9.7 ]
#3 "Converting Vegetarians" by Infected Mushroom [ 8.5 ]

1) Queen              A Night at the Opera

2) Genesis           Foxtrot

3) Roy Harper       Stormcock

4) Tori Amos        Boys For Pele

5) Kate Bush       The Dreaming

 

That's from my all-time list ... it doesn't reflect my current listening.

Blood ran to my head when I saw a compilation album in your list. In my opinion compilation albums always seem 'fake'. Like listening to some plastic version of the people, instead of the real flesh. But then again, I do have autism.

For me, in no particular order, it'd be this:
King Crimson - Islands
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
Coil - Horse Rotorvator
Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
The Beatles - A Hard Day's Night

Kind of a moving target, and only five is tough, but here goes:

 

Miles Davis - In a Silent Way

Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick

King Crimson - Red

Beatles - Revolver *

Pat Metheny Group - Still Life Talking

 

*As an aside, my 15 year-old son and I were driving to Eastern WA last month.  He was doing the driving (learner's permit) so he got to control the music from his own collection, and I'm happy to report there was no rap :-)  His choices were Revolver, Bringing it All Back Home, and Night at the Opera.

15 years old and drivin'? blink.gif

I can only start taking lessons when I'm 18.
I can however drink alcohol at the age of 16, so I have nothing to complain about.
