My favorite album of all time was GnR-Appetite for Destruction. My new favorite band is Skillet, so I'll go with Skillet-Comatose Comes Alive because it combines some of their best songs from a couple of other albums.

Jimmy Buffett ... Banana Wind. My all time favorite JB album. Some the best ballads he's done.

Great albums there. Surprised to see someone else into Yngwie. Most people have never heard of him.

For me:

Octavarium - Dream Theater. DT's my favorite band and they have number of albums that are in my top 10 but this one's at the top. I can listen to it over and over. The title track "Octavarium" is one of their epic 20+ min songs, taking you all over the map.

The Odyssey - Symphony X. Symp X follows in the mold of DT, but more straight forward progressive metal. I find it rather interesting that a band could take something like Greek Mythology and turn it into an album.

Deadwing - Porcupine Tree. PT has a number of other really good albums (In Absentia, Signify, Fear of a Blank Planet), but for me this is their go to album. They've been described as a modern day Pink Floyd. I can't say for sure myself as I haven't listened to a lot of Floyd.

Liquid Tension Experiment - Liquid Tension Experiment. A side project of some of the Dream Theater guys, this is a completely instrumental album with loads of jazz fusion influences. There's a song called "3 Minute Warning" that's over 20+ minutes and was recorded in one take. It's a complete improv jam.

Favorite metal album for me,has to MEGADETH(peace sells but whos buying)even though dave and the boys had one previous to this one(killing is my business&business is good).this album was more refined but yet raw,and gritty.and what better way to try and get back at METALLICA.never did like kirk hammet.but this is my opinoin.

JJ Grey & Mofro - Orange Blossoms

Some (read: all) of their older stuff is really good too.
