A Woofer In Tweeter's ClothingSparks
The number one album in heaven. Perfect in every sense. This is the over the top kind of magic Queen tried (but mostly failed) to make. They even get away with a cover of Do-Re-Mi from The Sound of Music.

IVThe Spits
Intelligent punk idiocy from a parallel universe. Every album from this group is better than the three first albums by Ramones (except vol 5 which is just a tiny bit better than Road to Ruin)

Angels Egg is up there too. Daevid Allen's Gong is an experience every human being should try at least once. So fill your teapot up with tea, and come and take a ride with me!

Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy)Brian Eno
This is so good. "Here Come the Warm Jets", "Another Green World" and "Before and After Science" should also be mentioned as some of the best albums ever recorded. Several of his more ambient records is also close to God.

Duck StabThe Residents
Convulsed into oblivion,from laughter or from fright. A good place to start to know the residents. (Commercial Album could also be a good start, their last record Coochie Brake is also well worth checking out)

So many nice surprises and new stuff to check out. I love the chart, but if I had one Kraftwek album to pick, Computer World would be number 2 or 3.
