The Who - Tommy (1969)

"The film had a huge impact on me and it was around that time I decided I wanted to be a musician because I was so inspired by this body of work."

- Dave Navarro

Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti (1974)

"Songs that are journeys and don't give a f*** about time are the ones that, you know, I gravitate towards because they allow me enough time to literally get myself lost in the song"

- Dave Navarro

Pink Floyd - The Wall (1979)

"It was a very magical time, for me, as a young man getting into that record and really identifying with it, and the album that made me dig into Pink Floyd's back catalog and become an avid fan of Pink Floyd."

- Dave Navarro

Failure - Fantastic Planet (1996)

"This was their third record and I believe this is their best record -- I think sonically this had a lot of impact on me and how you can have melody and power work really well together."

- Steve Isaacs

Nine Inch Nails - The Fragile (1999)

"Trent Reznor is believe it or not my all-time favorite musician."

- Dave Navarro

R. Kelly - Trapped in the Closet (DVD) (2005)

"It literally is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen."

- Dave Navarro

"All other works of art pale and wither in the bright, shining, god-like glow that is Trapped in the Closet."

- Steve Isaacs

I love that they *LOVE* trapped in the closet... that is seriously one of the most insane movies I've ever seen. And I can't wait for the Navarro rock opera--should be dope.
