What are some records that you feel are ‘essential’ to your collection (and you would replace if broken/worn out), that you would recommend to others without a second thought?

I’ll be super lame and give some ‘obvious’ ones:

  • Beatles - Revolver
  • Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
  • Michael Jackson - Off the Wall
  • Paul Simon - Graceland

  • King Gizzard | Fishing For Fishies
  • Shakarchi and Stranéus | Steal Chickens From Men And The Future From God
  • Digable Planets | Blowout Comb
  • Crosby, Stills, and Nash | CSN
  • Tame Impala | Lonerism

Truth be told least 50 I would try to replace immediately if I had any damage or excessive wear.

  • Dave Brubeck - Time Out
  • Marcy Playground - s/t
  • Elliott Smith - Either/Or
  • Jack Johnson - Brushfire Fairy tales

These are some of my most often played records from my collection. Leaving out my entire Pearl Jam collection for brevity and coolness.
