25 Albums That Changed My Life

When discussing art, it's always important to establish guidelines as to what makes something "good" or "best." Are we talking quality or personal meaning? A favorite movie is not always a quality film, a quality film is not always a favorite movie.

This is a list of albums that changed my life. I'm by no means suggesting these are the 25 Best Albums Ever Recorded, though I do think they all are fantastic pieces of art. Each of these albums holds tremendous significance to me in my life, and i highly recommend ALL of them for your listening pleasure.
