I got really into that record as a teenager. A lot of it I took apart and reassembled on mix tapes. Then later in life, after I finally got it on CD I started taking it in as a whole. I love it. Although I usually only listen to half of it at a time. That's the way I do all my double CDs since I'm too disorganized to ever find two together.

Sticking only to acts predominately rock(trying to avoid making this a favorite album list.)

1. Jimi Hendrix - Are you Experienced?
2. Paranoid - Black Sabbath
3. The Who - Who's Next
4. Deep Purple - Made in Japan
5. Gong - Gong's Angel Egg Trilogy(I consider it one big album)
6. Slayer - Hell Awaits
7. Frank Zappa - Hot Rats
8. Cream - The best of Cream
9. Primus - Frizzle Fry
10. Soft Machine - Soft Machine 2

Al Pacino = God

Not a very well-reflected list, just a list of ten essential rock albums that I could think of (in no particular order):
  • The Who - Tommy
  • Television - Marquee Moon
  • Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin IV
  • Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation
  • Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
  • King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King
  • The Velvet Underground - The Velvet Underground & Nico
  • Frank Zappa - Hot Rats
  • Pink Floyd - The Dark Side Of The Moon
  • Yes - Close To The Edge
