Thursday Thirteen #3 -----13 From My Teen Years

In celebration of the fact that I just purchased a new turntable (record player as I used to call it), and can now listen to the records that have been out in the garage for many, many years, here is a list of my favorite record albums from my teen years. These are the albums that I played over and over, and now serve as the theme music for my memories of being a teen. Here they are in random order.
