Strictly DID only gives you 8 choices  but since the OP said 10 so I’m sure I can squeeze a few extra in... as an extra artificial condition I’ve said one album per artist in the main choices...

  • ELO - Out Of The Blue
  • Thin Lizzy - Jailbrak
  • Horslips - The Tain
  • The Doobie Brothers - Takin It To The Streets
  • Aimee Mann - Whatever  
  • Jeff Wayne’s Musical Version Of War Of The Worlds 
  • Elgar Cello Concerto in Em - controversially I’d probably go for Julian Lloyd Webber/Yehudi Menuhin/LSO rather than either of the Du Pre versions
  • La Quattro Stagioni (The Four Seasons) - Antonio Vivaldi, I Musici
  • Yes - Close To The Edge
  • Rush - Moving Pictures
  • Gordon Giltrap - Fear Of The Dark

...rats that’s 11!

 

My bonus choices are (I reckon I’d need to smuggle these in too)...

  • Thin Lizzy - Johnny The Fox and/or Bad Reputation 
  • Horslips - The Book Of Invasions
  • The Alan Parsons Project - Eye In The Sky
  • Iona - Iona
  • The Doobie Brothers - The Captain and Me
  • Steely Dan - The Royal Scam  (though realistically I’d probably have a Best Of package)
  • Jean Michel Jarre - Les Chants Magnetiques

You too eh?

I have a STEREO pressing of Going Places that I can't find listed anywhere - it has a different catalogue number than the stereo UK pressing listed on discogs

I better check, I have several copies, but never looked at the catalog numbers.

 

When I lived in Hollywood I used to walk by the A&M building on the way to the grocery store, I often stopped and stared at the building.

This is impossible ...

Agreed

 

I tried to select just 10 but soon found myself with 20 and gave up - I'll just take my iPod classic and a supply of battery packs - that said there's loads of stuff I've only got on vinyl which i haven't yet got digital copies of.....decisions, decisions
