This album introduced me to a whole new style of rock music.. Progressive rock. I know i used to rag on it, but i thought of progressive rock as bands like Dream Theater... I never realised some of the most complex, adventerous, subtle, and amazing music ever written came out of the progressive rock genre in the 70's.. and continues to today. It has changed my entire view on music, and from it i have gotten into alot of jazz and jazz-related music.. Honestly, music is the most important thing in my life.

Some albums i can't live without:

Genesis - Foxtrot
Genesis - Nursery Cryme
Genesis - Selling England By The Pound
Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
Yes- Close To The Edge
Frank Zappa - We're Only in it for the money, Hot Rats, Grand Wazoo, Absolutely Free, One Size Fits All
Mahavishnu Orchestra - Birds Of Fire, Inner Mounting Flame
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme
Return To Forever - Romantic Warrior
Pharoah Sanders - Karma
John Zorn - Naked City
Dredg - El Cielo
Radiohead - Ok Computer, Kid A
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Yanqui U.X.O.

and the list goes on...
