These are the albums that blew me away when I heard them. This chart replaces the one with the albums I would keep if I could only have 50. So, the new chart is the 50 albums that have really influenced my musical tastes. They are listed in the order of the date I first heard them (not necessarily the year they were released).

Your top 10 is really confusing... and Dub Side Of The Moon, but no Pink Floyd? Bah. Not my kind of chart.
