Hounds of Love - Kate Bush
Hormonally Yours - Shakespears Sister
Space Oddity - David Bowie
Born to Die - Lana Del Rey
Folklore - Taylor Swift
The Wall - Pink Floyd
Thriller - Michael Jackson
Entire discography (cheating, I know) - The Beatles
Like A Prayer - Madonna
Blackout - Britney Spears
X - Kylie Minogue
Lungs - Florence and the Machine
Exit - Tangerine Dream
One Touch - Sugababes

Just to give an idea!

Great list! "X" is one of my favourite Kylie albums too and it's not one you see mentioned often, but I love its icy cool electronica.

I also love that you mention "Space Oddity" by Bowie - again an album that seems to get overlooked, especially compared to "Hunky Dory", but I absolutely love it. "Cygnet Committee" is one of my favourite songs of all time. It's the first song of Bowie's I listened to after he died

Johnny Cash- At Folsom Prison
Bob Dylan- Blood on the Tracks
Paul Simon- Graceland
Fleetwood Mac- Rumours
Bob Dylan- Blonde on Blonde
Led Zep- How the west was won
Neil Diamond- Hot August Night
Bob Dylan- Freewheelin Bob Dylan
Jeff Buckley- Grace
Janis Joplin- Pearl
Bob Dylan- Highway 61 revisited
ALL of the Johnny Cash/Rick Ruben albums
Johnny Cash-At San Quentin
The Pogues- If i should fall from grace with god
The Travelling Wilburys- Volume 1 and 2

If i could only listen to those albums for the rest of my life then i would die a very happy person!

Graceland is in my top 5 greatest albums of all time. It is an absolute masterpiece.
It reminds me of being little and my mum used to blast it out when cleaning up, and we used to dance around to it. Now im 35 and have my own kids, it is now my housework album of choice that me and my kids dance around too.
