Top 50 Greatest Music Albums
by stealth4933 
Tried to pick albums based on cultural impact, replay ability, concept, and overall sound quality. Recently changed the chart. Replaced Joni Mitchell with Carole King since they are so similar. Put in Eminem and upped Arcade Fire's position. Trying to give more albums to people from the past decade but I am a huge fan of influential albums and most of those albums just have not had enough time to become influential...
