Nice list! It's good to see "Fables" get some love. What a good and weird album, just a unique atmosphere. It sounds like sleep to me.

My list:

The Olivia Tremor Control - Black Foliage
The Zombies - Odessey & Oracle
Dinosaur Jr - You're Living All Over Me
Todd Rundgren - Something/Anything
Television - Marquee Moon

As much as I love Who's Next, I have to say that Quadrophenia is a superior album.

Anyway, here's my Top 5 today. Ask me tomorrow and you might get a different answer:

1.) Quadrophenia by the Who
2.) Who's Next by the Who
3.) Ramones by the Ramones
4.) Are You Experienced by the Jimi Hendrix Experience
5.) White Light White Heat White Trash by Social Distortion

That's a little surprising, given that you obviously know your stuff. 'Marquee Moon' is one of the few albums that was praised to death and actually lived up to the hype. Fully.

Hey Dan, nice list I too like the Carpenters, but their singles album is a compilation, not a studio album.

Mark, excellent choice on Quadrophenia, but as much as I love it, it's a tick below Who's next.
