All from my teens, because nowadays I listen to a lot more variety, but back then listened to the same few albums over and over, and little else....
Men At Work - Cargo.  My first cassette at age 12-13. Every day for months on my Walkman, because it was the only cassette I had and I Loved it.

Yes - 90125  My first intro to Yes (age 14-15?), and me and friends thought it was the greatest thing ever.

Rush -  Moving Pictures/2112   My intro to Rush (age 14-15) both on the same cassette, about equal listening time. 

U2 - The Joshua Tree.  (at least the addictive side 1--often skipped side 2).   

Paul Simon - Graceland. Still think this is a brilliant album

After this, a tossup of other albums including  Classic Yes; Sting, Dream of the Blue Turtles/Nothing Like The Sun; Rush, Power Windows/Grace Under Pressure/Permanent Waves; Mannheim Steamroller, Fresh Aire series (esp Fresh Aire III, my fave); and some classical tapes that I don't remember now (mostly Chopin, my fave classical composer).

	Rick Wakeman - Journey to the Center of the Earth Joni Mitchell - Travelogue Monteverdi - 7th and 8th book of mandrigals Yes - Fragile / Tormato Genesis - Trespass Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath Chad and Jeremy - the Ark Peter Gabriel - So Simon and Garfunkel - Greatest Hits CSNY - Deja Vu Elvis Costello - Brutal Youth / Juliet Letters Rolling Stones - Goat Heads Soup This is what I could think of on the spot. I listen to music most of the time and it's sad because I often overplay music until it "gets old." But the good thing is that every time I return to whatever I overplay after staying away from it for a while, I still get the same kind of warm feeling and enjoyment out of it, so that's good.

	1-By the Way-Red Hot Chili Peppers (My first album, got it when I was 10) 2-All That you Can't Leave Behind-U2 (One of the albums I grew up listening at home) 3-The Division Bell (One of the 2 albums that got me into Floyd, the other being The Wall) 4-Selling England by the Pound-Genesis (One of the first prog albums I got and one of my favorite, so...) 5-Trilogy-ELP/Fragile-Yes/A Night at the Opera-Queen. I guess it was probably one of those) I guess it could also be one of The Beatles like White Album or Revolver as they were also one of the first bands I became a fan of. Seventh Sojourn by Moody Blues and ITCOTKC are others I have listened to a lot.
