    I am working on adding to the collection and did a few online searches that turned up some really varied results.
    So I figured I would test the ATL waters. What albums are "must haves" for any collection? I grew up listening to everything so my music is dependent upon my mood.

    Here are 10 that everyone should have (IMHO):

    1) Tool - Undertow
    2) Led Zepplin - Led Zepplin IV
    3) Jeff Beck - You Had It Coming
    4) Stevie Ray Vaughn - Texas Flood
    5) B.B King / John Lee Hooker - Back 2 Back
    6) Metallica - Kill 'Em All
    7) Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
    8) DJ Icey - Disco Rodeo
    9) Guns & Roses - Greatest Hits
    10) Santana - Abraxas


    I have to say, it is damn hard to pick ONLY ten.:eek:hnoes:
    I challenge you to only pick ten and to not duplicate another entry! :hsnono:

    I will hesitate to volunteer more titles so others can chime in.

    I added all to a list. I guess if we're going to the trouble of listing them someone should make them easy to find...

    I hesitated from adding a bazillion essential mixes I have. :wiggle:
