I've seen the 15 Album thing floating around blogs and facebook. My list is not my top 15 albums of all time, but instead the 15 albums that shaped my music life in order of appearance as well as I can remember. These are the tops of the family trees, that spawned interest to dive deeper into the artists in the same genres and so on. Some of these have 20 or so artists below them, but these were the core beginnings that got me started. #'s 2,3, & 4 were simultaneous so they were worth their own individual recognition although they may be in the same tree line and time period.
1. The Beatles - 1962 - 1966
2. Stone Temple Pilots - Core
3. Nirvana - In Utero
4. Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream
5. Gin Blossoms - New Miserable Experience
6. Jars of Clay - Jars of Clay
7. Led Zeppelin - Boxed Set
8. Sublime - Sublime
9. Rage Against the Machine - Rage Against the Machine
10. Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
11. Jeff Buckley - Live at Sine
12. Mohenjo Daro - Baksheesh
13. Incubus - Make Yourself
14. Ray's Music Exchange - Alivexchange
15. Vineyard Music - Dwell
If there was a 16 it would be Sufjan Steven - Come feel the Illinoise
Bottom Line - Life without music would be lame.
That's the Facts
