This thing has been going around Facebook, so I figured it would be fun here too. 10 albums you spun a ton when you were a teen. I specifically kept my list to contemporary records released around my teens, not the classic stuff I listened to. Feel free to laugh about KoRn, but the drumming on that record was nasty.  RATM - Self Titled Foo Fighters - Self titled Nirvana - Unplugged in NY Toadies - Rubberneck KoRn - Self Titled Metallica - And Justice For All... Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power Pilfers - Self Titled Big D and the Kids Table - Shot by Lammi Radiation Kings - Early Years |

Defining teen as in high school and in no particular order
Simon and Garfunkel: Sounds of Silence (perhaps the first album my parents let me buy - or maybe they bought it for me??)
Aerosmith: (Pick any of the first four albums - Sorry, I know it's cheating, but they all got worn till they skipped incessantly)
James Taylor: Greatest Hits
Elton John: Bitch is Back probably got the most spins of my EJ collection.
Loggins and Messina: Sittin' In
Santana: Borboletta (Bought it because the cover was so cool - I had no idea what fusion was but I couldn't stop playing it)
Steely Dan: Can't Buy a Thrill (or maybe Aja)
Cat Stevens: Tea for the Tillerman
Chicago: I dunno, maybe Chicago II - or maybe it was that ten album set.
Foghat: Fool for the City (I'm guessing the slide work blew my mind)
Most Embarrassing Honorable Mention:
Cecilio and Kapono: Cecilio & Kapono (Hey, I went to high school in Hawaii and covering C & K impressed the girls.)
Strangest:
Philippe Entremont – Fantasy-Impromptu (weird, huh?)
Reading some the above Rumours and Hotel Ca. should probably bump L@M and S@G. But Wait - There's moree ..Boz Skags, Wings, CSN&Y, Alice Cooper, Kansas, OMG - BOSTON! ..Jeeze Jesse - ONLY 10??? Come on ..they all belong on the list because they're all vinyl and I wore them all down to the quick. CD's hadn't been invented.

I'd have to include 'classics' as I did not like much contemporary music in high school, mid-80's. Here's a few.
Hendrix - Axis Bold as Love
Zep II
Floyd - Piper and Ummagumma
Black Flag - Everything Went Black
Minutemen - Double Nickels on the Dime
Minor Threat - LP comp of the 2 EP's
Bad Brains - I and I Survive EP
Beatles - Revolver
13th Floor Elevators - Easter Everywhere
Chocolate Watchband - No Way Out
Boogie With Canned Heat
Cream - Wheels of Fire
Who's Next / Live at Leeds
Velvet Underground - White Light/White Heat
Bowie - Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars
King Crimson - Court of the Crimson King
Grateful Dead - Anthem of the Sun
Howlin' Wolf - same
Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley - Two Great Guitars
Quicksilver Messenger Service - Maiden of the Cancer Moon
Allman Brothers At Fillmore East (lesser than the unofficial closing of Fillmore East radio broadcast)
Was a huge bootleg vinyl head, lots of unauthorized records and tape trading.

I forgot to mention any Yes. Yes became just about my favorite band as like an 8 year old. I couldn't get enough of 90125. Loved memorizing all the complex parts in my head. I still love them. |

There was something very special about that album, Trevor Horn, Trevor Raven, Chris Squire, Those araingements! Sonics were not my cup of tea, but there was a definite aesthetic and wasn't a huge Trevor Horn production sound his ABC stuff was so much more dynamic. |

There's a lot of stuff that didn't make my list because I turned 20 in mid 1970, so it's disqualified...

I had to cut my list at late 18 because going to music school and being formally introduced to jazz COMPLETELY changed what I listened to. I'm pretty sure not one of my records got a spin once I hit 19. Strangely enough, I didn't have a record player in college; it was all tapes, so I was in effect building my library from scratch. By the time I got out of college (and could afford to buy music), I think CDs were on the horizon, and I didn't want to get screwed in the format wars, so I pretty much laid low for a couple years with my tapes and as a result haven't purchased vinyl since high school ..in the late 70's.

Humble Pie - Rockin' the Fillmore and Smokin'
Johnny Winter - Still Alive and Well
REO Speedwagon - Ridin' the Storm Out
Foghat - Energized
Robin Trower - Bridge of Sighs
Deep Purple - Made in Japan
Kiss - Alive
Montrose - Montrose
Rush - All The World's a Stage
Boston - Boston
and then I heard Led Zeppelin and everything changed; all else became past-tense as I devoured their entire catalog up to and including Presence. Their '77 show in Phoenix permanently altered my musical consciousness, and I'm still dealing with the aftershocks. Seismic music, every minute of it.
Isn't it beautiful that a song, or a band, can change lives? Maybe even save them? I can say without a doubt that music gave me a place to escape to when my young life got heavy. And besides, if you want to get laid, everyone knows that you should put on side one of Led Zeppelin Four
Honorable Mention: Hendrix - Hendrix In The West - His version of Johnny B. Goode is astounding
