Choosing a Beatles album is hard, I constantly listen to this, Magical Mystery Tour, Revolver and Love, but I guess this album has A Day In The Life, so it wins. Still managed to name drop the others, though.

I like a lot of Radiohead, I could probably pick a personal greatest hits with a couple tracks from each album but this is definitely the one I come back to all the time. Bass lines for days.

First Pink Floyd album I heard and it represents everything I love about progressive and ambient music, especially considering the time it came out. I don't really need to explain this one, do I?

A really comprehensive collection of career spanning songs performed by some of the finest musicians around, and to have the accompanying DVD really just makes this album so special. A real mix of emotional, catchy, groovy and rocky songs that ticks every box.

I love all Placebo but this album has my favourite songs on. I'm probably more 'attached' to SWG but this one is probably my favourite.

Great album by a great band. Came to The Cure later in life but they were huge influences on a lot of my favourite bands.

Interesting list. Like the inclusion of Primus and the comment about learning to play the bass.
