Top 40 Greatest Music Albums by 
SorenHighwind 
This is just a collection of my favorite albums, not which ones I think are the "best". These are also listed in the order I thought of them, rather than least favorite to most favorite. I feel that there are simply far too many good albums out there for me to pick just one to stand over the rest, you know?

Great chart! Very original with a nice variety of music. Also, the top ten is really good, it is not common to see Physical Graffiti in the first place. Expand!
So interesting to see Crucis here! Not many people know that album.
