rolling stone's "50 coolest albums of all time", all in one easy-to-digest list, instead of the one-album-at-a-time format on the <a href=http://www.rollingstone.com/features/featuregen.asp?pid=601"">official website. (i own four: 5, 27, 32, and 47.) they also have an uncoolest list (reproduced below). i've got three albums from that list: 14, 37, and 50. (one is the blue öyster cult's secret treaties, which is on both lists. i also used to own cinderella's long cold winter, but it got stolen from my dorm room many years ago.)

wow. that should teach me to read your entire post before I move on to the list. I saw, "50 coolest albums of all time" and started reading the list. I was incredulous. I couldn't believe the CRAP they had picked! ok, I'm an idiot. I own none of the uncoolest albums and own 1, 2, 5, 8, 14, 18, 19, 27, 31, 32, 33, 34, 36, 37, 39, 40 and 48 from the "cool" list. judging by the albums I have, I'm half-cool.
