The debut self-titled Ben Folds Five album celebrates a 25th anniversary today! Turned up the piano, and lost the guitar. The trio from North Carolina used the debut to showcase their material and cause a bidding war by major record companies, won by Sony. Love Boxing. |

The 3rd Stereolab album Mars Audiac Quintet is 25 years old today! Perhaps their most accessible album with tracks such as Ping Pong and Wow and Flutter. The masters of space age pop achieved their highest album chart position with MAQ. Love the final track Fiery Yellow. |

The 1965 debut Mr. Tambourine Man by The Byrds helped coin the term folk rock. The album hugely influenced many acts from Tom Petty to The Stone Roses. |
