I agree with this. But still, it's fun seeing what people choose.

Alright Gaffer, I'll see your Born to Run and raise you:

Probably still my favorite album of all time.

And also because I'm morally obligated to mention it:

John Coltrane - A Love Supreme

it's jazz, while still heavier than 99% of all rock music and more spiritual than 90% of all gospels

While we're all sharing favorite albums:

Is there more essential music out there? Even in the realm of rock, absolutely. Doesn't mean it's not the most "essential" in regards to my personal tastes and what not, though.

Would everyone be happier If I replaced "essential" with "influential"?

Everyone would probably be happier if we weren't having our umpteenth favorite-of-all-time discussion featuring the same twelve albums as always.

It's interesting how most people interpret "The most essential album" as "post your favourite album from you fav / a recent band".
