These albums were very meaningful to me at significant points in my life: growing up, discovering my own identity, helping form my sense of humor, crushes, love, break-ups, joy, melancholy, etc... . They still find their way into my rotation and can bring me back to the exact way I felt the first time I heard them. Are they the best albums of all time? Some are, some aren't. They include soundtracks, comedy albums, and greatest hit anthologies. But they're all special to me for various reasons.
