To the Weight faithful from all over the world, leave a comment with the Top 5 albums that changed your life. Anyone reading this site knows full well that music certainly can change your life, either through opening your ears to new musicians and tunes by association or by being a soundtrack to an important time in your life. After all, even through life's turmoils, turbulence, highs and lows, the songs remain the same.

I'll start the comment thread. Think back and share your 5.

    In no particular order:

    Junta by Phish
    Division Bell by Pink Floyd
    August and Everything After by Counting Crows
    Throwing Copper by Live
    Decade of Hits 1969-1979 by The Allman Brothers Band

    Damn this is hard. All of these albums I had heard by the time I was 16.

    OK, here is my first salvo. I may come back to change things as the day progresses:

    The Band-The Band
    Endtroducing-DJ Shadow
    Enter The 36 Chambers-Wu-Tang Clan
    A Live One-Phish
    Remain In Light-Talking Heads

    This is so hard. There is no way these are correct but it is worth a try.
