Author Comments: 

This list was inspired by asking people to identify the one or two albums that I not only need to listen to, but that I need to listen to repeatedly until they become one of my favorite albums as well as one of yours. Feel free to add on in the comments.

Albums in bold are already in my collection. I have highlights from a few of these discs on compilations/greatest hits packages (VU and Clash come immediately to mind), but that's not the same thing, is it?
