Greater Toronto! Best Toronto-based Albums Ever
by 
jhuik 
Work in progress: best albums produced by people from one of the best cities in the world. I hate the traffic but there's lots to love about TO. Inclusion of bands and artists with prominent members who are from within 50 miles of Toronto, let's say. That keeps Stratford -- home of Justin Bieber -- and Napanee -- home of Avril Lavigne -- conveniently out of bounds.
