Top 50 Greatest Music Albums by motownfreak15 (2011)  

« View previous chartView next chart »

In some respects, I am treating my chart as the last shuttle out for good music before the bomb of industrial musical schlock comes and destroys everything else. That being said, I feel like I'm killing my favorite children off when I leave out a classic because I must make room for other artists. If I had my way, every Beatles album and several Dylan albums would be on here, but my desire to show off the lesser known awesomeness I discover requires me to limit my musical gluttony to no more then three by the same artist.
Please, input and opinions are desired! :)

From Chrisey22 08/05/2010 06:24
I tried to put stuff in my chart that you mite not find in a lot of charts but I love nonetheless and feel they are very fine . Like you I love the Beatles and Dylan but only put two of each in it and no Bowie who I love also.

Agreed, I find I have minimal patience for music with flowery production but zero sense of melody or flow. I think it shows on this chart. :P

I have a degree in classical piano but obviously like all kinds of music..I think that it changes the way you listen to music if you play an instrument and it is something that you always have.

Ffudnebbuh, it sounds too superfluous to say I'm a guitar player, for it seems EVERYONE "plays" guitar. I love a lot of instruments; anything with the ability to produce multiple notes which can form a chord to contribute to song structure. :) What about you?
