I couldn't reduce a favorites list to ten, but fulfilling my AARP prime directive, I'll toss in a few that I don't think have been mentioned:

Sinatra's "Songs for Swingin' Lovers" (seriously, it's very cool)
Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On"
The Four Tops' "Reach Out"
Jimi Hendrix's "Are You Experienced?"
And Side 1 of the Doors' "The Doors"

The Doors, The Doors was on my list. I dropped it off at the last moment to add something newer, but I'm a big fan.

James Brown-In the Jungle Groove

The Who-Live at the Isle of Wight

Flaming Lips-Soft Bulletin

Ween-God/Ween/Satan: The Oneness

Urge Overkill-Saturation

Pantera-Vulgar Display of Power

Prince-Purple Rain

Deep Purple-Machine Head

Public Enemy-Fear of a Black Planet

Nirvana-In Utero

I excluded things that had already been named, but the only switch I'd probably make is putting Yoshimi in instead of Soft Bulletin.

Pantera-Vulgar Display of Power

Nice.

[New Mexican Disaster]

Nice.

I knew you'd appreciate a throw out to Dimebag Darrell (may he rest in peace).

Awww, man...how could I forget Paul's Boutique?

They sampled the Beatles AND Johnny Cash!

[Babs]

Well I decided to omit the Beatles because I couldn't decide which album to go with -- it seemed roughly akin to trying to choose a favorite child.

In (rough) chronological order:

Buddy Holly, Buddy Holly
Patsy Cline, Patsy Cline Showcase
Simon and Garfunkel, PSR&T
CCR, Willy and the Poor Boys
Jim Croce, You Don't Mess around with Jim
Billy Joel, Stranger
Bon Jovi Slippery When Wet
Whitney Houston Whitney
U2 Joshua Tree
Garth Brooks, No Fences

His blood is a stain on Columbus, Ohio.

Surprising list Babs. I would have expected a little more 80's pop.

VDOP always reminds me of the MTC when I would secretly listen to Pantera on my walkman at night. Throwing the tape away at the airport was a symbolic moment for me, though I was pissed at myself during the flight for chucking it in SLC.
