Think of 20 albums that had such a profound effect on you they changed your life or the way you looked at it. They sucked you in and took you over for days, weeks, months, years. These are the albums that you can use to identify time, places, people, emotions. These are the albums that no matter what they were thought of musically shaped your world.

These are my musical influences and history, but not necessarily the albums that would comprise my current top 20 favorites of all time. Some I still listen to, and others I don't, yet they are a part of who I am.
