Top 40 Greatest Music Albums
by weird4chill 
I don't worry about what critics call best albums. This is mine and only my opinion on albums I think are timeless based on the entire album's body of work--not just one great single. I'm 44 and have been an avid musician and audiophile most of my existence. Take it for what it is--and it can change daily, but these albums are always needed.

Blind Faith was actually half decent. Good inclusion.
