If you could only keep 5 record albums, what would they be?

@bdp24, you are a music encyclopedia!!! I have heard and like maybe 75% of the albums listed, but your "6 pack" is this weekend's homework assignment. Can't wait. 

I'm not really into albums, prefer to compile my own but it's funny how Abbey Road keeps coming up. It would be on my list too, along with the following

Astral Weeks  Van Morrison
Born to Run  Bruce Springsteen
Love and Theft  Bob Dylan
Get Happy!!  Elvis Costello and the Attractions.

These are not necessarily what I regard as the best albums of all time, but they are all for me at least, eminently playable. I never get tired of playing them, at least not for long, and hardly ever want to skip tracks. Like yourself I love them as much as I ever did, and in the case of my gold CD Sony sbm copy of Born to Run, even moreso.
