15 in 15

Ok, so the game was to come up with a list of 15 albums titles that had a significant impact on each of us individually… albums that will forever stay with us. This is by no means our list of ‘top records of all time,’ but merely a gathering of things that in their moments had a significant impact on us as individuals and will forever stay with us. We each had no more than 15 minutes to create the list. There were undoubtedly some great records, life changing ones that that, that we all most assuredly left off our lists by accident-- BUT these were the ones that when the pressure was put on, we all came up with. Enjoy.
