An album that literally changed my life: I bought the Replacements' first album, Sorry Ma, Forgot to Take Out the Trash, when I was fifteen or so. (This was in 1987 or '88.) It was my first exposure to punk, which led me to a lot more punk, the politics of which led to an interest in politics in general; plus punk opened me up to a lot of other independent / underground / avant-garde music, not to mention literature and movies, etc. Best six bucks I ever spent. (P.S. If you've never heard the Replacements, check them out, especially their first six albums.)
