I often think about stellar albums. The ones where they're really isn't a skip-able track. Off the top of my head, these come to mind: The Beach Boys Pet Sounds, Collective Soul Collective Soul (blue album), Bush 16 Stone, and Green Day Dookie. What are some of your perfect albums?

I'm just breaking into country and jazz. If anyone has some classic must-listen albums, I'd be all ears.

It's been almost a year since The Forever Story came out, but it was a classic in my mind from the first second I heard it. I haven't listened to as much hip hop these past few years but that album pulled me right back in.

I'm not the biggest fan of J Cole, but he's discovered and boosted some amazing artists.

I felt the same way. And an album hasn't stuck with me this long since To pimp a butterfly
