But even eliminating those guys it was incredibly hard. Some letters just had so many amazing albums. And I love at least 23 of the albums listed here and can't imagine my life without having known them. They've all touched me in some profound way (except some of the ones that were really hard, like Q and Z, which I obviously had to cheat for, my iTunes tells me I don't have any albums with those letters). Now, my list isn't anywhere near as "classic" as the other guys' though. They have AC/DC, Miles Davis, The Who, John Lennon and The Beatles. I have Yazoo. MmHmmm.

Well, I think your choices cover a very wide range of different styles. That's definitely a plus. ;)
I think I should try this too, although I doubt I'll have an album for each letter.
I've been trying to make one of these, but I always come up short, and apparently all my favorite albums start with B or L.
