If you could only have a record collection of albums released in one calendar year which one would you go for?

I toyed with 1977, I really did, but 1994 was just unbeatable for me:

Beck - Mellow Gold
Luna - Bewitched
NIN - Downward spiral
Stone Roses - 2nd coming
PJ - Vitalogy
Nirvana - UNplugged
dEUS - Worst case scenario
Portishead - dummy
suede - dog man star
pulp fiction sountrack
veruca salt - american thighs
GBV - bee thousand
Beasties - ill communication
weezer - weezer
hole - live thro this
meat puppets - too high to die
pavement - cr,cr
GD - dookie
Morrissey - vauxhall and i
rem - monster
Massive attack - protection
TMBG - john henry
oasis - def may
MSP - the holy bible
sebadoh - bakesale
jeff buckley - grace
prodig - jlited gen
blur - parklife
superchunk - foolish

That is a fucking incredible 12 months of music releases.

What year would you choose?

    1965 for me:

    All I need:
    Rubber Soul - The Beatles
    Bringing It All Back Home - Bob Dylan
    Highway 61 Revisited - Bob Dylan

    There are obviously a lot more, these are just the essential one's for me. Those 3 speak for themselves.
    Shows: 6.27.08 Hartford, CT/5.15.10 Hartford, CT/6.18.2011 Hartford, CT (EV Solo)/10.19.13 Brooklyn/10.25.13 Hartford
