The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill
Lauryn Hill
Already a member of The Fugees, Lauryn Hill struck out on her own with this soul/hip-hop tour de force. Its beauty was only equaled by the eclectic grooves at the heart of its songs.

Surfer Rosa
The Pixies
A band from Boston changed the sound of rock. That band was The Pixies, and the album they did it with was the surreal and vicious Surfer Rosa.

Pink Moon
Nick Drake
The ultimate downer folk record; a must even if you're not a 20-something driving a Volkwagon in a TV commercial.

Station To Station
David Bowie
This is what you invent when you come off a sci-fi movie set and imbibe Philly soul at 4:00 am.

Daydream Nation
Sonic Youth
First, they de-tuned their guitars. Then they de-tuned their minds. When they discovered conventional song structure -- Riffs! Choruses! -- they were ready to conquer the world.

Shoot Out The Lights
Richard & Linda Thompson
A high-water mark for the acclaimed guitarist, whose tense songs are well served by his (soon-to-be-ex) wife Linda's crystalline vocals.

Heart Of Saturday Night
Tom Waits
Jazz, poetry, and tobacco-stained love. No human being was cooler than this.

Damaged
Black Flag
Volume and self-flagellation. This is where punk turned ugly.

# three hundred forty-nine

Roger The Engineer
The Yardbirds
This sole studio effort by the blues-based heavy metal pioneers shows what they could do with one of their storied axemen (Jeff Beck) firing on all cylinders. Psychedelic in the best sense of the word.
