List some of your favorite records that turn 20 this year

for the record, i still listen to blueberry boat ALL the time. i'm kinda fixated on it. and their other stuff. but that one in a big way. some things just get ya.

just checked out that top 50 and there are vv few albums i still listen to or even own on there. Medulla, Madvillainy, The Blue Notebooks, Last Exit. I should probably own Blueberry Boat, that's a classic. There are some mystifying picks which probably don't make sense to anyone who wasn't there, though.

!!! - Louden Up Now
Asa-Chang & Junray - Tsu Gi Ne Pu
Electrelane - The Power Out
Halcali - Ongaku no Susume
Oneida - Secret Wars
Plumbline - Pin Points
Selfish Cunt - No Wicked Heart Shall Prosper

Blueberry Boat is a masterpiece and only gets better with age.

Listening to Blueberry Boat now... I know this is a total cliché, but if this album were released today, it would still sound totally "fresh" (IMO)
