[Hoot]

Since everyone is listing their fav movies, I thought it might be interesting to read what some of your fav cd's are through the years?

My list could change from one moment to the next, as it's impossible to remember everything, but I'm not looking so much for cd's that are considered artistically great, but rather cd's that spoke to you, or had special meaning in your life.
