Favorite ever albums.

[Devils'Advocate]

Some people are naming more albums than I own. I'll try to keep mine to 5.

Waiting for a Miracle - Bruce Cocburn
Myth of Rock - Consolidated
Actual Miles - Don Henley
I'm Your Man - Leonard Cohen
Diesel and Dust - Midnight Oil
Frizzle Fry - Primus
Monster - R.E.M.
Tracy Chapman - Tracy Chapman
Up to Here - Hip
Pump Up The Volume Soundtrack
Silence - Tara Maclean

Okay, I suck. I can't keep to my own rule.

But, for me, the best album ever is: Solace - Sarah McLachlan

Have to say that I would have never thought I'd see Journey on a greatest albums alltime list. CP, where new strange things happen everyday.

I have to admit that Journey is a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine.

Steve Perry could sing, and Neil Schon was a pretty good guitar player
