Diversions: License Plate Game

A few weeks back I saw a license plate that read as follows:

OKCMPTR

Unless there's some sort of "impeter" in Oklahoma City, I'm pretty sure it was a license plate devoted to Radiohead's classic album OK Computer. And that, friends, was the genesis of this game.

I'm going to give you a list of kids music albums whose titles will be limited to seven characters. In some cases, I think the answers are going to be pretty easy; others will require a little extrapolation, though...

Join in the fun after the jump... answer what's there, and suggest some more!
