Top 50 Greatest Music Albums
by michaelk 
These are, in my opinion, the 50 Greatest albums of all time. SMiLE is far and away the greatest album ever. There is no album with songs so musically connected. It is a true masterpiece. There are so many other great albums, its too bad that I was too lazy to make a really huge list. That would take too much work though.
