The Cars - s/t
Brian Eno - Another Green World

slint - spiderland
drive like jehu - yank crime

is Hats the only album that's shown up on three separate lists?

oh, Tusk as well

Pop Group Y
Sun Ra Strange Celestial Road
Fat Hit
Van Morrison It's Too Late To Stop Now
Burning Spear Marcus Garvey.

&several others that I don't think of hierarchically as a top 5. May be struggling to include everything in a top 50 too.

The Sundays - Reading, Writing and Arithmetic
The Mountain Goats - The Sunset Tree
Destroyer - Destroyer's Rubies
Superchunk - Come Pick Me Up
The Smiths - The Smiths

Thomas Newman, The Shawshank Redemption Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Thomas Newman, The Green Mile: Music From The Motion Picture
Various Artists, The Majestic (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Mark Isham, The Mist - OST
