. Paul McCartney- Ram. makes me happy, and has its own sound separate from his other stuff

. Pink Floyd- The Piper at the Gates of Dawn. the only amazing Floyd album

. Pixies- Surfer Rosa. yes yes yes i know how amazingly cliche i am

. Replacements- Let It Be. We are the Replacements, Dont ask why.

. She & Him-Volume 1. bring on Volume 2 !
