I Hate Cows...

Tag!

Tagged by Punchbuggyblues, I'm supposed to pick one album from each year that I've been alive, so I scanned though Wikipedia's "year in music" entries- which I know is not complete. Oh well. I'm just picking them based on what I liked best either now or at that time, not based on any particular significance to me (no compilations allowed though). My only caveat was to only use each artist once, so I didn't pick Tom Waits each and every year he had an album out....
