Abbey Road - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9I94RN8Y
This is the first of the Beatles albums that I really fell in love with. It is such an amazingly complete album from start to finish. The medley from "Mean Mr. Mustard" to "The End" is probably my favorite of the Beatles entire catalog.
Favorite Tracks - I Want You (She's So Heavy), She Came in Through the Bathroom Window

The Beatles - Abbey Road (1969)
Miles Davis - Bitches Brew (1970)
Bitches Brew - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=4HKEA1U6
This is Miles Davis's most accessible album. Less jazzy, more like a rock album. Electric organ and electric guitar are featured prominently. This album was like no other jazz album when it came out in 1970.
Favorite Tracks: Pharaoh's Dance, Bitches Brew
Weezer - Weezer (1994)
Weezer - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=98X0UCVY
Often referred to as "The Blue Album" this album is good time garage rock. Straight forward guitar driven songs anchored by vocal harmonies. This album is full of songs about happy things like love- very different from the often darker grunge rock of the early nineties.
Favorite Tracks: No One Else, Say it Ain't So
Nine Inch Nails - The Downward Spiral (1994)
The Downward Spiral - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9OW453AE
The Downward Spiral is a concept album about the destruction of an unnamed man. The album is often very edgy and dark. Reznor is a master of low tech futurism.
Favorite Tracks: Closer, Hurt
