Music changes things. At least for me, music has always played a very strong role in my life. So I'm working on a chart like nothing I've seen before - the albums that changed me the most. How about y'all? What changed you? _________________

Excellent question!
For me I would say the albums that really changed my life and the way I operate in life and my worldview etc were
when I was 13 and I first picked up a CD copy of "London Calling" from the library, that changed my life a lot. Made me feel a certain rebelliousness. Rather, I already was rebellious, but it gave me an outlet or a symbol of how I felt in a way.
Obviously when I heard Bob Dylan's "Ballad of Hollis Brown" off "The Times They Are A-Changin'" that was pretty revolutionary to me. I had never heard anything like that. It was almost like in that instance I found someone I could totally connect with and I also felt like I was finally looking past my own little idea of life in my own little box. Bob Dylan completely changed me. That was when I was 12. Also got that from the library.
Just earlier than that the first record I remember TOTALLY obsessing over and the first album that made me feel like I was really part of something and that I had something most people didn't have was "Ride The Lightning". That blew my mind! I was 12.
And besides that there have been lots but the last one i will mention is when I discovered The Tallest Man On Earth. I remember going out and finding a copy of "The Wild Hunt" and being completely transfixed by the austere beauty of it. I have been obsessed ever since. But even more than that, that album made me feel more assured and relaxed. It was sort of a spiritual record for me. I found a kindred spirit in that record and in that artist which I hadn't found since discovering Bob Dylan. There ya go...
London Calling by The Clash
The Times They Are A Changin' by Bob Dylan

Homework - Daft Punk - Got me into music

Yeah... These are the most significant. Let's see what happens over the next few decades.

I Am A Bird Now by Antony And The Johnsons
It didn't change my vision of the world, or my way of life, or my relations to other people. It just made me happy.
