Just a few of mine:
 
Sgt. Peppers  
White Album (& most anything by the Beatles)
Workingman's Dead
American Beauty
Live Dead  
Europe 72
Running on Empty
Hotel California
Music From Big Pink
Cahoots (& most anything by the original Band)
Blood on the Tracks (& other Dylan)
The Subdudes Annunciation
Derek & the Dominoes
Bookends (& almost any album by Simon & Garfunkel)
Graceland
Soap Opera (the Kinks)
First 3 John Prine albums
Abraxas
Blows Against the Empire
Tommy
Who's Next
Exile on Main Street
Waiting for Columbus
Ragged Glory
Harvest (& lots of other Neil Young)

These are but the tip of the iceberg.  There are lots more.  I guess there is a difference between being 17 and 51 years old.
