Top 20 Greatest Music Albums
by poprobot 
This is not, by any means, the definitive list of my favorite albums ever... 50 spots is just not enough to narrow my favorites down to. So, I am simply adding titles as I think of them, in no particular order. Cheers!

those albums might make the list later -no complaints about MJ or the Strokes.
i just started the list with the first 3 fave albums that popped in me head... looking forward to adding more later - but it's near impossible to pick only 50 favorites!
