    Interesting thread and I am going to try to come up with 5 although if you ask me this a week from now, I'll probably have a different list.

    J.S. Bach - Mass in B Minor
    Bob Dylan - Blood on the Tracks
    Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon
    Radiohead - Kid A
    Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavilion

    Nice to see artists like Can, Scott Walker, and Kraftwerk getting some love.

    OK Computer is my favorite album of all time. Tago Mago is excellent and I can't believe I only recently listened to it.
