i dunno about albums but 80s music had the greatest impact on me since it was the first i was really exposed to. 80s metal probably shaped my future interests ...

being from a somewhat small town selection was always limited, so, if you did find something new (i can recall getting ahold of reagan youth/sex pistos great rocknroll swindle/flogging a dead horse this way), it was usually handed down from someone who got it from someone they new in a nearby city (atlanta usually). as far as owning "tapes" i can remember having these when i first could afford to buy music, so they mustve had something to do with shaping my likes and dislikes:

Red Hot Chili Peppers - uplift mofo party plan

Pink Floyd - Animals

[img]http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach/Bluffs/7571/animals.jpg[/img]

This album introduced me to a whole new style of rock music.. Progressive rock. I know i used to rag on it, but i thought of progressive rock as bands like Dream Theater... I never realised some of the most complex, adventerous, subtle, and amazing music ever written came out of the progressive rock genre in the 70's.. and continues to today. It has changed my entire view on music, and from it i have gotten into alot of jazz and jazz-related music.. Honestly, music is the most important thing in my life.

Some albums i can't live without:

Genesis - Foxtrot
Genesis - Nursery Cryme
Genesis - Selling England By The Pound
Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
Yes- Close To The Edge
Frank Zappa - We're Only in it for the money, Hot Rats, Grand Wazoo, Absolutely Free, One Size Fits All
Mahavishnu Orchestra - Birds Of Fire, Inner Mounting Flame
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme
Return To Forever - Romantic Warrior
Pharoah Sanders - Karma
John Zorn - Naked City
Dredg - El Cielo
Radiohead - Ok Computer, Kid A
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Yanqui U.X.O.

and the list goes on...

Led Zeppelin
