Top 41 Greatest Music Albums
by dazedandconfuzd 
I am admittedly biased toward music by Seattle bands in the 1990's, what most call grunge. Most of the great grunge came out while I was in high school in the Seattle area, what else would you expect? British bands also have a special place in my heart, particularly the Beatles and Led Zeppelin.

Most of this is pretty good, but there's really no excuse for having Lady Gaga on your list.

Hey, what's wrong with a little variety? Lady Gaga has some really good stuff, although it's different.
