By an Amazon.com customer
Tea for the TillermanTea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Buy new: $8.99 / Used from: $8.51
My favorite album of all time by my favorite artist. The strings truely shine and the lyrics express feelings that can not be described in any other way.
Sweet Baby JamesSweet Baby James by James Taylor
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $2.13
His gentle and calm way of expressing the most heart wrenching emotions is truely incredible. Fire and Rain might be the greatest acoustic song of all time.
Pink MoonPink Moon by Nick Drake
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $5.19
This is perhaps the most somber album i've ever experienced. He turns his sorrow and feelings alienation into a powerful goodbye that still resinates all these years since he has passed on.
The Lamb Lies Down on BroadwayThe Lamb Lies Down on Broadway by Genesis
Buy used from: $8.98
The Lamb is perhapas Peter Gabriel and Genesis's greatest work. The story telling is truely epic and the music is as brilliant as in any of their earlier creations.
...Waltzing Alone...Waltzing Alone by The Guggenheim Grotto
Buy new: $14.98 / Used from: $4.49
The first album from this trio is the most impressive first album i've ever come across. The song writting is top notch and the music melds with it perfectly.
The Turn of a Friendly CardThe Turn of a Friendly Card by The Alan Parsons Project
Buy new: $7.98 / Used from: $5.30
A truely haunting and powerful album telling the tale of a man destroyed by a gambleing addiction. The songs leading up to the suite are equally brilliant.
In the Court of the Crimson KingIn the Court of the Crimson King by King Crimson
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $9.74
A truely amazing album. The lyrics and musicality are as good as any.
SongbirdSongbird by Eva Cassidy
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $5.49
Her voice is angelic- i don't know how else to describe it.
Whatever and Ever AmenWhatever and Ever Amen by Ben Folds Five
Buy new: $7.98 / Used from: $2.47
Ben's finest work. It's fun, witty, and the piano playing is wonderful- not that the other members aren't great as well.
August and Everything AfterAugust and Everything After by Counting Crows
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $0.23
Their debut and best work. The album is fantastic from start to finish, and it epitomizes 90's pop rock.
