What about Times struck more of a chord (or rather, shook you up out of your comfort zone) more effectively than Freewheelin'? I've always been partial to the latter, and the former is honestly one of my least favorites of his golden era, and I'm interested in the visceral, first listen appeal it has/had for people.

Past self:
"Anything with electronics is not real music. Ugh, you have no taste in music. Oh, ambient? Isn't that just whale sounds?"
When I listened to this:

Used to hate emo or what I thought was emo before listening to this. Now it's pretty much one of my favorite genres.

Honky Château by Elton John
I was a modern country music fan until I heard this. Yep, Kenny Chesney, Toby Keith, the whole nine yards…Thank goodness for that Volvo commercial with "Rocket Man" in it. I listened to that song 2500 times (I know, a bit obsessive) and then bought Honky Chateau.

I used to be a strictly classic rock guy, but then in high school I listened to In Utero. The rest is history.

The Mantle by Agalloch
This album really made me start to appreciate and enjoy metal.
When i was younger (11 or 12) I was just trying to find music to listen to on youtube and stuff, and some of my friends liked Swedish and Norwegian power metal, so I listened to that for a few months and really learned to dig it, but this album was what opened my mind to other types of metal. I think this was also my gateway to hardcore punk.

That's a toughie. I was too into classic rock or old folk before the new discoveries. The album that got me out of classic stuff and into the new millenium was definitely Funeral, but the album that got me into toher genres was probably a hip hop album like Paul's Boutique. I couldn't stand hip hop beforehand. I know M B V got me into shoegaze and dream pop. Ever since then. I explored a lot.
