I know these lists get done to death on other forums but don't remember one here. Plus these kind of help you to figure out which members are on the same wavelengths as you playing and tone-wise. These are the albums that influenced me the most as a lead guitarist. They're not necessarily my favorite songs or bands or even albums by these bands, but the ones where the guitar playing really grabbed me and had a huge impression on me.
In no particular order:
1.) Diary of a Madman - Ozzy/Rhoads
2.) Tribute - Ozzy/Rhoads
3.) Van Halen I - VH
4.) Van Halen II - VH
5.) Corridors of Power - Gary Moore
6.) We Want Moore - Gary Moore
7.) Knights of the New Thunder - TNT/Ronni Le Tekro
8.) Heading for a Storm - Vandenberg
9.) No Parole From Rock and Roll - Alcatrazz/Yngwie
10.) On the Streets - Le Mans (featured an 18 year old Derek Frigo and Josh Ramos on guitars and they were local Chicago heroes that just ripped it up in a 1983 pre-Yngwie way.)
