I'm getting to the point in my list where I can't think of 10 albums. Every time I come up with something, I start to second-guess myself. "Did I really love this, or is it just that everyone said I should?" It's killer!
I am getting close, though. I think I have about six firmed up.
My list is complete apart from a little wavering on number 10. It was tough and there are a couple of albums in there that kind of suprised me but it all came down to what albums really had meaning for me. There is nothing freaky or obscure on the list though as I didn't really started diversifying my listening until last year. God bless the internet.
I did mine by time periods in my life: high school, college and beyond. I had several alumms that could work for all the periods, then whittled them down to what would best illustrate my musical learning curve for each period. I ended up with three from 0-18 years, four from 18-20 and three for the last eight years. Seems strange, since I've been listening to tonnes of new things in the last three years or so, but I guess I feel like I need more time with those albums before I decide if they're seminal or not.
