Got tagged by Antonyfor this a li’l while ago on facebook, requiring me to list “25 albums that changed my life” (as the title should tip you off to),  but things have been a bit hectic. Figured I’d also print the list here in my blog.
It’s tricky to keep this list from simply being a list of one’s favourite albums, but I’ve tried listing albums I feel have had some impact on me and helped formed me in some way – though mostly I can just think of albums that have changed me when it comes to my taste. Anyway. I’m sure there are several albums that should’ve been on here but aren’t (which I just can’t recall at the moment), and I’m sure there are albums I maybe shouldn’t have included. The albums are in alphabetical order.
