I've got 25 of them. This sort of thing changes radically every 5 years.

Hi Eckie

Yeah it probably does change every 5 years BUT The Beatles (my favourite band) will be around till the end of time, their music is just as popular now as it ever was and they broke up nearly 40 years ago.

Some albums are just out and out classics, aren't they? :D

Yip, I agree. The Beatles will dominate for some time yet. They are the origins of most music that is good today.

I've 18.....I wonder how many on that list people will be "discovering" in 10 years time!

Have to admit i liked the sound of nirvana stuff and got loads of albums by them, the only problem is i'm really not sure what he was singing about most of the time.

I liked ray of light, i thought it flowed really well, i think radiohead are good too...shame no bjork albums made it onto that list!..although that is a bit of an acquired taste.

I have whos next and a couple of cream albums ... i only got them because i saw some tv prog in which they covered some cream/who songs... and i was interested in the originals... it was worth it i like those albums :)
