Top albums:
'Jimmy Cliff, The Harder They Come' - In my humble opinion, the greatest reaggae album of all time.

'Thelonious Monk, Straight No Chaser' - I'm not sure anyone pushed the envelope - musically, mentally or spiritually - with as much class and inviduality as Monk. On of the heaviest albums ever written.
