Top 33 Greatest Music Albums
by bigbaddude

Great chart... Some of the best Prog Rock albums and many classic Rock albums are charted here. Maybe you have already heard them and you dont consider them good enough to make your top 50, but if you still havent listened to any of them, I strongly recommend you 3 albums: Animals by Pink Floyd, maybe the strongest effort by David Gilmour; Born to Run by Bruce Sprinsgteen, Bruce trying to be Bob Dylan (which of course is great); and Ramones by the Ramones, one of the best Punk Rock albums ever made.

not seeing the punk in my chart unless your talking about the stooges? a bit of a stretch but...ok. yeah i like a lot of the albums on your chart...a lot of good classic rock stuff. i just got burnt out on classic rock when i was a kid. i love zeppelin, pink floyd, the beatles etc. but only return to those albums when im feeling a bit nostalgic. well...maybe not so much the beatles. i listen to them fairly regular. :)

Your chart made me smile. It was a trip down memory lane. I had almost all of your 60s and 70s and 80s albums in my collection back then and I only had about 400 albums at the most. I am slightly surprised that you picked Benefit over Aqualung and Thick As A Brick and picked the Low Spark over John Barleycorn. I do like them all however and would listen to them all.

I definitely have heard all three. Animals would be in the list if the list was the top sixty instead of fifty; I like the ramones, but they're not my favorite, as the music is slightly repetive and boring to me; and I fail to understand why springsteen is so highly revered, though I like some of his music.

I know, man. The first time I heard Close to the Edge, I thought it was longwinded and full of filler. The more I listened, the better and better it sounded, and it eventually became one of my very favorite albums.
