Top 50 Greatest Music Albums by sammac (2013)  

« View previous chartView next chart »

A list of personal favourites interspersed with twice as many renowned classics to try and help balance off the list. Where's the usual Oasis, Radiohead, Hendrix, more Beatles etc? Well they've been voted for quite enough times already :0b and it gives a bit more space for other deserving entries :0).

Extra note: my favourites of 2012 (both personal and not so as usual) were as follows:
1. "Yours Truly, Cellophane Nose" by Beth Jeans Houghton And The Hooves Of Destiny
2. Bloom by Beach House
3. Shields by Grizzly Bear
4. The Haunted Man by Bat For Lashes
5. Plumb by Field Music
6. The Bravest Man In The Universe by Bobby Womack
7. Channel ORANGE by Frank Ocean
8. Tempest by Bob Dylan
9. Trouble by Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs
10. Ill Manors by Plan B
11. Wrecking Ball by Bruce Springsteen

Not a dud in the bunch. Any list that has Black Sabbath and Ol' Blue Eyes deserves to be a classic. Just wish it was 100.
