1. Tea for the Tillerman - Cat Stevens
All time favorite of all time.

2.Making Movies - Dire Straits
By far the best Dire Straits CD although I like them all.
The 1st one comes close

3. Staring at the Sea - The Cure
Okay my wife was a big Cure fan so I learned to like them.
It paid bigtime :):)

4. Street Survivors - Lynyrd Skynyrd
Ronnie and band at the crest after just adding Steve Gaines
this band was at the top of their game

5. Syncronicity - The Police
Just a great album. I know Sting is an ass but I still like the CD.

6. Boomtown - David and David.
1986 and most of 1987 not much else was played. Lots of memories :):)

7. Release - David Knopfler
David is the founder of Dire Straits. I heard this CD for the 1st time in 1983 and it has come out every year for 19 years no matter what.

8. Document - R.E.M -
1st R.E.M CD I bought. I had to listen to it a bunch before it grew on me. Especially like Exhuming McCarthy

9. Joshua Tree - U2 - Peeling off those Dollar Bills slapping em down.......

10. Crash - The Dave Mathews Band - this one and Under the
table and Dreaming are great.
