Remarkably similar to my own list mate. I listened to them til the plastic almost melted at the time, and still happily play them all now from time to time. The La's, Never Mind the Bollocks and Whatever People Say I Am were all on the shortlist, along with Hunky Dory (Bowie), Eye to the Telescope (KT Tunstall), Ocean Rain (Bunnymen), Plastic Ono Band (Lennon), Gold (Ryan Adams), The Specials (The Specials) and The Doors (The Doors), but in the end I went for:

The Beatles - Please please me
The Beatles - Revolver
Stone Roses - Stone Roses
Parallel Lines - Blondie
Setting Sons - The Jam
Velvet Underground & Nico - Velvet Underground
Nicole Atkins - Neptune City
Lucinda Williams - Lucinda Williams
Rolling Stones - Let it bleed
Hatful of Hollow - The Smiths
 
What's The Story Morning Glory - Oasis
Stone Roses - Stone Roses
Be Here Now - Oasis
Defo Maybe - Oasis
Rumors - Fleetwood Mac
Whatever People Say I Am That's What I'm Not - Arctic Monkeys
AM - Arctic Monkeys.
Coast To Coast - Westlife
The Masterplan - Oasis
Tellin' Stories - The Charlatans.


That's in order.
