Sound of a Generation?

If I had to pick a single album that I would consider to be the most widely loved by the largest number of people my age (late-mid-twenties), I think I would have to say that Weezer's blue album would take the prize (honorable mention to Nirvana's Nevermind. Even though I am sure that the latter is "More Important," when's the last time you and a bunch of friends rocked out to "Breed"?).

This is one of my favorite albums ever, and every time I listen to it with anyone within a few years of my age in either direction, they inevitably know every word to every song, and can sing all of the harmonies and guitar solos. I can't think of many other albums that I can say that about.

This has me thinking, what would other people say are the best or most important or most loved albums of their generation, or high school, group of friends, or whatever?

I'm a little older too and I'd have to say The Eagles "Hotel California" or Bob Seger "Night Moves"...but when your a music lover its pretty easy to sing along with almost any of my favorite albums(which there are many) after you've been listening to them for 25-30 years...
