    I know we all have cultural differences, but could some of you upstanding people give me the top 5 albums of your lives.

    1. Love Supreme-John Coltrane
    2. Rapture-Anita Baker
    3. Blueprint-Jay-Z
    4. Houses of the Holy-Led Zeppelin
    5. Superfly-Curtis Mayfield

    and a bonus
    Are you Experienced-James Marshall Hendrix

    Since I am huge Beatles fan, I find it difficult to compare any of their music to other music. Thus, here are my top 5 non-Beatles albums:

    1. Are You Experienced - Jimi Hendrix

    2. Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd

    3. Nevermind - Nirvana

    4. Led Zepplin II - Led Zepplin

    5. Hotel California - The Eagles


    Led Zepplin IV is the bonus. The more I think about the more great albums I realize I am leaving off of the list. This will have to do, for now.
