| Lakes' Top 15 Albums... Ever
This took forever to rank, but I'm pretty confident in this order. | | 15 |  | Faith No More
Angel Dust | | 14 |  | Weezer
The Blue Album | | 13 |  | The Beach Boys
Pet Sounds | | 12 |  | The Rolling Stones
Exile on Main Street | | 11 |  | Bob Dylan
Highway 61 Revisited | | 10 |  | Weezer
Pinkerton | | 9 |  | George Harrison
All Things Must Pass | | 8 |  | The Beatles
Abbey Road | | 7 |  | Paul Simon
Graceland | | 6 | | The Beatles
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band | | 5 |  | Joanna Newsom
Ys
Outlandish medieval tales brought to life by a she-gnome with an enormous talent for songwriting and the harp. Couldn't recommend more. For a period of time, this would have been in my #1 spot. | | 4 |  | Jethro Tull
Thick as a Brick
The best prog album ever. Jethro Tull are possibly the only band that can make a 40 minute song with little to no boring sections. The first three minutes are complete musical euphoria, rarely matched in my three years and nearly 250 albums of music listening. | | 3 |  | Neutral Milk Hotel
In the Aeroplane Over the Sea
I'm astounded by how this album continues to grow on me. From the beginning I felt it was pretty close to a classic, and its power on me grows even more with every listen. I am awed by how... I can't even explain it. Just go out and buy this right now, because if you haven't heard this, you cannot truly call yourself a fan of music. Classic. | | 2 |  | Bob Dylan
Blood on the Tracks
Hands down the best Dylan album and possibly the greatest folk album of all-time, Blood on the Tracks is a heart wrenching album of relationship problems and beautiful music. "Tangled Up in Blue" and "Idiot Wind" rank among my favorite songs of all time. Dylan is a genius. | | 1 |  | Radiohead
OK Computer
Need I even elaborate? Radiohead used to be one of those bands I "didn't get" and I couldn't understand why they received such praise. Of course, at that point I had only heard "Creep" and some of the In Rainbows singles like "House of Cards." One day I gave into the hype and checked out OK Computer from my local library. I was so incredibly infatuated with it that I forgot to rip it to my computer, and thus I have been apart from this album for a long time, but absence makes the heart grow fonder. Need to buy for myself. | |

09.13.10 | in 10 years lakes will look back at this and wonder, "oh why didn't I listen to TDAG more?"
no but seriously, i'd be willing to bet that even in the next 5 years more than half this list changes (that's not a bad thing, mind you, it just means you are listening to a lot of music) | Athom
