Top 40 Greatest Music Albums

My first chart - all time favorite albums. It's a work in progress obviously. A colossal task, and I'm just getting started. Obviously a lot of refinement required... oh and NO GREATEST HITS ALLOWED, RIGHT???

Every single song on it I love. Fantastic lyrics and music. Probably my most favorite album ever.

Nice list! It's much like mine in places. But many of yours that aren't on mine will be eventually.

Thanks! Just started on this site this morning, and just building this first chart. Still figuring out how this works, but seems I need to get this one built before it will let me build others. Really want to start a best of 2014 list.
