Recently I posted a list of ten albums that “changed my life”. I’ve been meaning to post another list of ten more albums that have had that same influence. So, here it is! Again, these albums are beyond nostalgic for me and really bring out many different emotions. Let me know what you think of them. Also, if there are any albums that have “changed your life”, feel free to tell me which ones. // JP

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.
