Top 36 Greatest Music Albums
by noform2000 
It's a first go; I don't know that these are the BEST records of all time, but they're my current favorites. While most of these would move up and down in my estimation, the top 3 pretty much stay there.
The first 6 or 7 won't change.
Now I'm adding records as I think of them.
