Ten albums that changed my life (so far)

Lately I’ve really found music to be something I cherish and appreciate. It keeps me going while I am working, driving or dancing (naturally) and some of it really hits home for me. I’ve decided to make a list of the ten albums that have “changed my life” (so far). Basically, these albums have meaning to me, they have even influenced who I am as a person. They are nostalgic. I can listen to these albums over and over, even if they are 5 years old and not that popular. There might not be many super “classic” albums or artists that the majority if you would put on here (ie. Radiohead, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, or whoever) … but I’m not you. Some of these might seem cliche’ (Mumford), but just know that they really mean a lot to me in some way or another. Let me know what you think of the list.
