So i bought a 2gb mp3 player to replace my rusty old ipod. i've been trying to compile a list of 20 perfect albums to put on it. i.e albums that are timeless, and have indeed stood the test of time, can be enjoyed on multiple levels, and do not lose integrity or interest with repeated listens. i've got a good start already, but any suggestions?

I applaud your efforts to use albums when mp3 players seemed designed to destroy the whole "album experience".
I know it's probably a totally personal subjective topic, but here are a few albums I can think of, which hopefully others won't think of. Wouldn't it be boring if we all went for the same...
Lee Scratch Perry - Secret Laboratory ELO - Out of the blue 10CC - Live and let live Kraftwerk - Radioactivity Beastie Boys - Hello Nasty. Led Zeppelin - can't decide which is best (you choose) The Stranglers - the collection 1977-1982
Maybe you will like them, maybe not. I know I've omitted so many great albums, but you undoubtedly know them already.
