Layla (And Other Assorted Love Songs) - Derek and the Dominos, because this album got me through some hard times. ERIC CLAPTON UNDERSTANDS GODDAMNIT!

. Soothes the aching heart to have your situation sung about. /mushy.
Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits - Bob Dylan, because I love Bob for the same reason I love the Layla album, and I have a tremendous amount of respect for his way with words. One of the greatest lyricists of all time.
Let It Bleed - The Rolling Stones, the Stones are my favorite band of all time, and this is the first record I ever listened to by them. Stole it off my Dad's shelf and didn't give it back for 3 years until he found it in my room in the move. Anyone who forgets they own Let It Bleed doesn't deserve to have it :p.
