    was lucky enough to have been given stg£25 worth of virgin tokens lately and thought this might be an interesting way to decide what to choose.
    i really want to use them wisely and i was wondering if you guys could tell me what your all time favourite albums are, or what you'd advise me to buy with them; classic must haves, or just something new that you really enjoyed.
    i have a fairly open mind when it comes to different kinds of music so i'll welcome all suggestions.

    cheers you guys

    If youre looking for classics id go for

    Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
    The Number Of The Beast - Iron Maiden

    Alternativly, Albums like
