How funny, Elle!! Mike has an old LP of sound effects, but they're all of a military bent. So we not only have the sound of a jet taking off, but the sounds from the guts of the carrier as it strains to hold on to the "cat" as the jet returns to the ship and the "hook" catches!! It's a wonder the man can hear anything any more...

I tried to do the list, Sher...and sadly couldn't think of 15 off the top of my head, although I will say you hit two of my faves with JT and Carol!!
One of the albums that I first thought of, I can't remember the name of. It was a 2 record compilation of "classics" (everything from popular to classical) that belonged to my mom and dad. I can remember Daddy putting it on the record player and the two of us snuggling on the sofa on a rainy Saturday afternoon and listening. I still have a love of Jerome Kern andCole Porter and a lot of "standards" because of Daddy and that album. The other, that came into my head immediately after, is a sound effect album that my aunt had...the very first stereo I'd ever heard. Unbelievable!!! The sound of a locomotive or a jet going from one side of the room to the other was mind blowing to a little kid (and probably a lot of adults LOL) who had never heard anything like it!!!
This was posted on another forum I frequent and it was fun to do a quick check of the old brain to see what would come up. I was amazed at how fast the list was complete!!
Don't take too long to think about it. Fifteen albums you've heard that will always stick with you. List the first fifteen you can recall in no more than fifteen minutes.
I stuck to the "album" concept and didn't venture into music I listened to on 8-track, cassette, or CD.
Here's mine:
James Taylor - Sweet Baby James (actually considered kissing that cover a time or two!!)
Karol King - Tapestry
Bad Company - Bad Company
Santana - Abraxas
Larry Hosford - AKA Lorenzo (Ode To A Broken Coleus - I still know most of the lyrics!!)
Gordon Lightfoot - Sundown (although anything he does influences me!!)
Jackson Browne - Running On Empty (I still can't believe I was over forty before I knew what "Rosie" was really about!!!)
The Doors - L.A. Woman (Riders On The Storm was popular the first time I went to the coast as a teen... sigh)
Willie Nelson - Red Headed Stranger
Rod Stewart - Every Picture Tells A Story
Elton John - Tumbleweed Connection (I still remember the first headphones I wore!!!)
Asleep At The Wheel - Asleep At The Wheel (LOVED Ray Benson then, love him now!! And Chris O'Connell was the bomb!!)
Tony Joe White - The Train I'm On
Evita - The Original Broadway Cast Soundtrack (Mandy Patinkin and Patti LuPone - amazing!!)
