I think we may have done this many moons ago, but perhaps a retread thread is better than noe at all. Here are mine, in no particular order;


The Smiths - S/T
Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures
Pavement - Slanted and Enchanted
The Shins - Oh, Inverted World
Bob Dylan - Bob Dylan
The Strokes - Is This It
Television - Marquee Moon
Elvis Costello - My Aim is True
Big Star - #1 Record
Marshall Crenshaw - S/T

I'm sure I'm missing a few gems that could easily be substituted for one or more of these. So who did I miss? Springsteen's 'Greetings from Asbury Park', Bob Marley's 'Catch a Fire', The Clash - S/T, The Band - Music From Big Pink, Roxy Music - S/T, and more recently, Arcade Fire - Funeral and Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights. Yeah, they're all great records.
