Id exchange one of mine for Iron Maidens first album. Not sure which though. Maybe I could smuggle it in my pants past border control.

Ooooh, so tough - but very interesting, too.  8)

My choice might indeed change tomorrow - but I am going to try very hard...in no specific order:

1) NMA - Between Blood and Wine (ist that considered cheating?  ;D )
2.) The Waterboys - This is the Sea
3.) The Cure - Disintegration
4.) Andy Prieboy - Upon my wicked Son
5.) L.A. Guns - Self titled
6.) Depeche Mode - Music for the Masses
7.) Royal Blood - Self titled
8.) Black Star Riders - The Killer Instinct
9.) Dead Can Dance - I'd have to throw a dice...The Serpent's Egg or Anastasis
10.) Iron Maiden - Fear of the Dark

You ask the impossible... just 10 ALBUMS... no BOX SETS... lol. ;D

This is an impossible task for me.  Been pondering it for quite a while now.  lol, I was going to cheat by picking my favourite box sets, but you clearly state / request albums.  So I can't nail it down to just 10, because they'd be all NMA/JS albums beginning with 'Winter' going back 9 but excluding all the live ones because I'd want to get as many different songs in the pile as possible, so that I would be able to include 'Navigating By the Stars'!   So there you have 'em.  :D
