HTF's Best Albums List

The movies section on HTF always has tons of reviews and best of lists for film. So I thought, how come the music section is lacking even a remotely close to best of list. Maybe the two channel guys are feeling a bit left out heh

Wouldnt it be a great way to discover/discuss some new artists and different genres if HTF has a sort of reference list (maybe the mods might be able to create an official thread?), where members contributed all of their best of albums? It does not have to only be the best of's from your collection but maybe some recent albums you bought that you thought were good.

Ill kick it off and see how it goes from here, hopefully the list builds up. Some albums I bought recently

Dark Side Of The Moon [SACD Hybrid] Pink Floyd
Absolution [IMPORT] Muse
Showbiz Muse
Long Gone Before Daylight [IMPORT] Cardigans
Best of / Unplugged [IMPORT] The Corrs
Harem Sarah Brightman

Tell me what you regard as your greatest strength, so I will know how best to undermine you; tell me of your greatest fear, so I will know which I must force you to face; tell me what you cherish most, so I will know what to take from you; and tell me what you crave, so that I might deny you.
