Fifteen high school albums I still enjoy

Here are fifteen albums I bought during high school that I still dig. An idea mopped from Alfred Soto's blog, this is an odd exercise for me because I honestly cannot think of an album I purchased at the time that I dislike now. But here are fifteen hot platters in heavy rotation during my pimplier, greasier days. Look at all that punk, pre- and post-! The poptimism bug didn't bite me until reading Spin in college, c. 1989 so there's not much black music or dance/disco here. And pop meant new wave to this white, MTV-addicted suburbanite for almost the entire decade. Country would remain closed off to me until I received Rhino's The Best of Lefty Frizzell for Xmas 1991. No Afropop either until reading Xgau in 1990. And so on.
