TOP 100 (or so) ALBUMS ACCORDING TO LUEPTOW
Well, I'm leaving myself open for EXTREME criticism, but what doesn't kill us... These were chosen by initial impact upon first listen (dating back to Jr. High) as well as overall consistent listens. Other factors include the emotional state of mind in which specific albums helped to diminish or ignite such emotions. This is an always-changing list, but this is the first time I've attempted to tackle a top 100 so, if you want to give me shit go ahead. But show me your top 100. We'll sit and have a cup of coffee then I'll smack you upside the head in an attempt to knock some sense into you.
My hope is that this list will spark several comments and hopefully new articles. Alright, enough of the disclaimer.

Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo - Devo and Not So Quiet On the Western Front - Various Artists belong on this list.
As well as Improbotic's debut.
Where's Jennifer Love Hewitt's self titled gem?
In my left hand...
in your right...a cum rag stained with what little dignity you have left.
Which is still 3 times more than the dignity you can muster.
I was ready to write "You have _____ before your first RFTC album?!!??" But it makes sense. I stopped reading after 30 though. I only accept 1-30.
Beatbox: Rocket is your band, apparently Lagwagon is mine.
No shit - what's up w/ all the lajawejan buddy?
Oh wait, I did not look beyond 30.
RFTC, very much like Paul's Boutique, Check Your Head and The Empire Strikes Back were spoken favorites by you (beatbox) first and therefore not available for me to like since you spoke for them first.
