What iconic album should I buy?

[Globules]

DDs birthday is coming up. She's going to be 19.

She's asked for a CD player. What 1 iconic album should I get?

I'm thinking Jagged Little Pill or What's the story?

What would you get?

Fleetwood Mac “Rumors”

Paul Simon Graceland
Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon
Sergeant Pepper
Bridge Over Troubled Water
What's the Story, Morning Glory

Definitely what’s the story - Oasis are going to be EVERYWHERE this summer

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Fleetwood Mac Rumours
Blondie Parallel Lines

Jagged Little Pill is a great idea.

Arrival by Abba

Blondie Eat to the Beat

Green Day American Idiot

Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys is also considered a classic.

Brothers In Arms

Jagged Little Pill was my immediate thought. All great tracks.

Led Zeppelin 4

Bat out of Hell
Highway 61 Revisited
Back to Black

Alanis Morissette- Jagged little pill
Fleetwood mac - Rumours
Chili peppers - blood sugar sex magic
Nirvana - nevermind
Radiohead -Ok computer
Kinks- best of (their discography is too massive and they are so influential)

What music does she like? Some great suggestions already, but I think something that was recorded that was intended to be played in vinyl such as anything by Pink Floyd, or the Beach Boys or even something like War of the Worlds would be a great start to her collection.

Discography by the Pet Shop Boys.

It’s interesting that she’s asked for a CD player. I’ve heard of young folks asking for vinyl record players (I bought DS one years ago) but never CD players. We’ve always been told that CDs don’t have the same cachet as vinyl. Is this the start of the CD revival?

The White Album

It surprised me too @worrisomeasset

I think she sees the vinyl revival as being for middle aged people.

You've all given me more to think about now. Such great suggestions!

How could I forget about Lauren hill or Amy?!

Came to say Blondie, Parallel Lines (so will 2nd vote it!)

but also Queen, Greatest Hits

Who’s Next - The Who

My first thought reading the thread title was "Jagged Little Pill". Absolutely amazing album.

The Bends Radiohead, Fear of a Black Planet, Public Enemy

Tapestry by Carole King.
Blue by Joni Mitchell.

Just as I have got rid of all my CDs ! I am so behind the curve.

Amy Winehouse, Back to Black

The Miseducation of Lauren Hill is number one in Apple’s 100 best albums chart.

Sergeant Pepper
Abbey Road
Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
The Stranger
Thriller
