An album a year for each year you are alive
Simple really (or is it?). Choose your favourite album for each year you are on this mortal earth. It's a bit of fun but it may also throw up a few goodies for people. You can include compilations and live albums if you want to but only one artist.
Mine: 1972: Genesis -Foxtrot 1973: John Martyn-Solid Air 1974: King Crimson-Red 1975: Fela Kuti-Expensive Shit 1976: The Abyssinians-Satta Massa Gana 1977: Pink Floyd-Animals 1978: AC/DC-If You Want Blood..You've Got It 1979: Joy Division-Unknown Pleasures 1980: Swell Maps-...In 'Jane From Occupied Europe' 1981: The Durutti Column-LC 1982: Hawkwind-Choose Your Masques 1983: Clannad-Magical Ring 1984: Marillion-Fugazi 1985: Iron Maiden-Live After Death 1986: Slayer-Reign In Blood 1987: Prince-Sign 'O' The Times 1988: My Bloody Valentine-Isn't Anything 1989: Nomeansno-Wrong 1990: Fields Of The Nephilim-Elizium 1991: Cranes-Wings Of Joy 1992: Spahn Ranch-Spahn Ranch 1993: Swirlies-Blonder Tongue Audio Baton 1994: Senser-Stacked Up 1995: Tricky-Maxinquaye 1996: Beck-Odelay 1997: Mansun-Attack Of The Grey Lantern 1998: José Padilla-Souvenir 1999: Everything But The Girl-Temperamental 2000: Afterlife-Simplicity Two Thousand 2001: Maudlin Of The Well-Leaving Your Body Map 2002: Archive-You All Look The Same To Me 2003: Melt Banana-Cell Scape 2004: Mice Parade-Obrigado Saudade 2005: Porcupine Tree-Deadwing 2006: Kayo Dot- Dowsing Anemone With Copper Tongue 2007: Bon Iver-For Emma, Forever Ago 2008: Nick Cave- Dig, Lazarus, Dig Looking back on the list it seems to follow certain musical patterns and I am surprised at how mainstream it is at times. C'mon then. Get posting.

I love this idea, and great list to start off with Jackhammer! It's probably going to take me a while to come up with mine but I'm definitely doing this. I'll have to check out that Swirlies album. I really dig their music even though I've met Damon Tutunjian and think he's kind of a jackass.
