1. Patsy Cline's greatest hits (Id marry that woman without looking at her...)

2. 40oz. to freedom

3. Mazzy Star- Fade into you

4. DJ. Screw - 3 in da mornin part 2.

Here goes mine...

1.Notorious BIG - Ready to die

2.Jay Z - Reasonable Doubt

3.Hector Lavoe - Greatest Hits, Vol 1 and 2 (that counts as one cd, right?)

4.Dave Matthews Band - Live at Luther College w/Tim Reynolds Disc 1

5.Al Green - Greatest Hits

Re: 5 must have CDs
 

Live at Luther College - nice choice

Re: 5 must have CDs
 

OutKast - ATLiens
Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory
Michael Jackson - Bad/Thriller (got em both on vinyl and couldn't decide)
Mos Def & Talib Kweli are Blackstar
Disturbed - The Sickness

This would have been much easier with 10

Re: 5 must have CDs
 

JDLEA, basically ANY Outkast CD. One of my favorite groups of all time.

Re: 5 must have CDs
 

Yeah, but I think ATLiens is one of the best hip hop cds ever made

Good call on Liquid swords. I haven't heard it in awhile, but it sure is a must have classic. Most of all the first Wu-Tang solo albums are classics.

Method Man, Raekwon the Chef, Ghostface Killa, ODB.........all had great albums

Re: 5 must have CDs
 

1. Outkast - The Love Below

2. Marvin Gaye - Here My Dear

3. John Coltrane - Blue Train

4. NWA - Straight Outta Compton

5. Public Enemy - It Takes A Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back

5 discs is tough, great thread.

Good to see there are so many music connosieurs in here. I'm going to have to get up to DC to tailgate with you guys, the Warpath will Mos Def-initely bring the noise.

Re: 5 must have CDs
 

Word on Liquid Swords. I think it's the best solo Wu album by far... just b/c RZA's production is so on point with GZA's lyrics.

Anyway, GZA's new one with DJ Muggs is pretty solid too.

Re: 5 must have CDs
 

That's also a really good call on the Carnival.
