GoonanismA Sporadic mix of the personal, political and programming

A dear friend sent me the following in facebook (edited for relevance):

15 Albums in 15 Minutes, the rules: Don’t take too long to think about it. Only one album per artist. Fifteen albums you’ve heard that will always stick with you. List the first 15 you can recall in no more than 15 minutes! No real order.

This is what came out for me. It was not easy:

1. Fresh Fruit for rotting Vegetables – Dead Kennedys
2. Kinda Blue – Miles Davis
3. Rage Against the Machine – Rage Against the Machine
4. Tougher Than Leather – Run DMC
5. Entroducing – DJ Shadow
6. Cold Cut – Let Us Play
7. Dave Brubeck – Time Out
8. Angel Dust – Faith No More
9. Demon Days – Gorillaz
10. Kristen Hersh – Hips and Makers
11. PJ Harvey – Rid of Me
12. Primus – Pork Soda
13. Public Enemy – Fear of a Black Planet
14. Roni Size – In the Mode (although possibly Replica)
15. Sonic Youth – Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star

I know that there will be albums I will regret having left off. Also, I tried to make sure that each areas of my musical tastes were represented.
