As another 40-something user, I can say that a ton of these albums are well etched into my brain, too. Appreciate your love for OK Computer and Automatic for the People.

being 40-something there are tons of albums to choose from - hard not to rate the stuff you grew up with the highest though - those albums get burned into your brain.
