in your humblest opinion, what year do most of your favourite albums/songs revolve around? i'm searching for some kind of musical epicenter. i have to think about this some, but i'm probably stuck somewhere in the '93-'96 era. i'm still discovering great records dating back to this time. and will probably be listening to mid-'90s era revival stations someday.

most CD's have a copyright date on the back if you look. i always pay attention to those, but i realize some people don't even store their CD's in their original jewel or cardboard cases.

feel free to cite specific albums, songs, to back up your case
