ok i want some suggestions here.
think of an album that someone should definitely own & write it down here.

lets make a record library with the best albums of all years !

it doent need to have to do only with the music.
for example think of the meaning of the lyrics, the quality of the music, the popularity & this kind of stuff.

my suggestions:

never mind the bollocks-sex pistols - a historic cd even if musically
trash-alice cooper - the music is "delightful"
fear of the dark-iron maiden - some of the songs show the humanitarian point of view we all should have while others are pure metal
number of the beast-iron maiden - spectacular and diverse songwriting, great vocals and is one of the best metal albums ever
american idiot-green day - a wake up call although billie joe cant get over 3chord songs !

ok thats all or maybe ive forgotten something.

your best ?

Michael Brecker - Pilgrimage
Nels Cline - New Monastery
Leonie Cohen Plus - Jerusalem
Ornette Coleman - Sound Grammar
Lazlo Gardony - Dig Deep
Monk & Coltrane - At Carnegie Hall
Ted Nash & Still Evolved - In the Loop
Joel Purnell Quartet - Red Shift
Jackie Ryan - You and the Night...
Julien Wilson - While You Were Sleeping
