My Life in Music

This is something I've been thinking about doing for a while. Those of you who want to do this, go for, just post in the comments.

Start with your birth year, and pick one album per year that you really like - preferable what would be the "Album of the Year" for you for that year. What follows in my list.

Oh geeze....if I did this, my head would explode. I might try it eventually though. You've got some great pics on your list.

Okay, it's a little late, but I've done it. My list is now up. It's amazing how few of the entries are the same as your (only 2 or 3, IIRC), considering how much of my list ultimately came because of my friendship with you. Thanks!
