Snoop dog doggystyle was the greatest just because of the hype that surrounded his release after his appearance on the chronic and then the Beatles first American release

I completely agree.

I won't stick to major label releases, but I will limit myself to those which are obtainable...

Butch Walker, Left of Self-Centered
Marvelous 3, [i]Math & Other Problems[i]
Nickel Creek, Nickel Creek
John Mayer, Inside Wants Out
Mike Garrigan, Building A Hole
Angie Aparo, Out of the Everywhere
Matchbox Twenty, Yourself or Someone Like You
Tabitha's Secret, Tabitha's Secret
Athenaeum, Athenaeum
SR-71, Now You See Inside

So, yeah, there's ten. I could probably name them all day, but what's the fun in that?
