Ten Albums That Greatly Influenced My Musical Taste Introduction

I was challenged by Jamie to list the 10 albums which greatly influenced my taste in music.  It's a social media challenge that was going around recently, and unlike others that listed more personal information, this one looked fun.  

The challenge as provided on Facebook asks for one title per day for ten consecutive days, with no explanations, no reviews, only covers.  It also asked that you would nominate someone else to play along each day.

Rebel that I am, I'm forgoing the rules and proceeding in my own special way.  I'll still be posting one album a day, but I'm going to give a little background on why this particular album and its music is so important to me.  How it influenced me.  Why it was so impactful.

And you can all breathe a sigh of relief, I will not be nominating anyone to play along.

This page will serve as a hub for the full list once it has all been revealed.  I'm looking forward to sharing my musical influences over the coming days so everyone can see how weird and eclectic it is.
