Nice to meet you, Mr. er.... Alein. Well, the three albums I would suggest to you would be as follows:
1. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles - This is most likely the greatest concept album of all time. When it came out, it was the most unique masterpiece anyone had ever heard, and it's had a major influence on popular music. This album was voted the #1 album of all time, according to Rolling Stone Magazine. 2. The Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd - This avant garde-style album has to be one of the most creative musical works of art ever. It is currently tied for the second best selling album of all time worldwide, with over 40 million copies sold. Also, it spent 14 years on Bilboard's top 200 album chart, which is the record for any album in history. 3. Led Zeppelin IV by Led Zeppelin - This is a classic rock standard. You will commonly hear every track of this album on classic rock stations. This is arguably the greatest Led Zeppelin album. It contains the legendary rock anthem "Stairway to Heaven," along with many other classics such as "Rock & Roll" and "When The Levee Breaks." This album was rated the #1 Greatest British Album by Classic Rock Magazine and was also named the #1 Greatest Album by Guitar World. And that's my list. I hope you and all other extraterrestrials will enjoy our planet's music! We have plenty of it!

David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust This dude was probably an alien as well so you might have bumped into him. Songwriting at it's most magical and glamorous.
Daft Punk - Discovery It's your first time on earth so obviously we should party it up a bit, have a few drinks and a few dances, this album is perfect. Big Black - Songs About Fucking May as well through you into the deep end as well This album represents all that is brilliant in heavy, raw music but is yet so easy to like. |

The Fall - Grotesque (After The Gramme)
To show you what it's really like to live on earth. Can - Ege Bamyasi To show you how hypnotic rhythm can get. Pussy Galore - Dial M For Motherfucker Loud , abrasive & fun with a bucketload of attitude , coolness and swagger. everything rock n roll should be.

I'm glad the alien can already differentiate good music from ****. If only certain humans could realize this....

The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds : Because alien life should understand the beauty humankind is capable of, and this album accomplishes that. Gorgeous, lush pop melodies, achingly perfect harmonies and great lyrics.
Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin IV : The definition of driving rock music. They should get to experience the potent energy of fairly perfect rock. The Violent Femmes - The Violent Femmes : The perfect punk album, in my opinion. Full of attitude, angst yet doesn't take itself too seriously. Fabulous music, too.
