I read your list when I woke up this morning, and while having breakfast on Sunday mornings I listen to our local classic rock radio station doing two hours of Beatles music. For me they are the greatest and most influential rock act ever, and any album of theirs that you choose will be fine with me.

When on vacation with a good friend last April, he brought a double College Dudes of all of the Beatles early hits. It is indeed an amazing collection. I can recall at age 13, buying the 45 single of "I Want To Hold Your Hand", in late 1963 after getting home from school, and playing it over and over at very high volume, as I was the only one home. I couldn't believe what an incredible sound they had, They made a great impression on me from the very beginning and I still love the Beatles.
 
Thanks for your responses PeterH and Mike. Peter you have good taste too.

I wonder whether the Beatles double CDs were the red and blue double albums or not ?

Other albums that I missed earlier are

Led Zep II, III and IV.

Bad Company - Run with the pack and Bad Company

Alanis Morrissette - Jagged Little Pill - She is so fucking dirty x
 
Here ya go,
11. Eagles- Hotel California
10. Rufus Wainwright- Rufus Wainwright
9. Elton John- Don’t Shoot Me I’m Only The Piano Player
8. The Cars- Heartbeat City
7. Queen- Sheer Heart Attack
6. Carol King- Tapestry
5. The Band- Greatest Hits
4. Don Henley- Building The Perfect Beast
3. Supertramp- Even In The Quietest Moments
2. 10cc- The Orignial Soundtrack
1. Annie Lennox- Diva
In a class all by itself… maybe the best of all time and into the future
Pink Floyd- Dark Side Of The Moon
 
I do like Rufus Wainwright but have yet to get any of his stuff. Queen were brilliant with Freddy and have got most of their stuff (I'm not sure why they're not on my list, I just forgot). Carol King's Tapestry is a masterpiece as is Joni Mitchell's Blue.
