A solid hard rock list...but I'm a bit confused about the choice of albums and the order. Death Magnetic ahead of Master of Puppets? Motorizer the highest ranked Motorhead album? Hey Stoopid the highest rated Alice Cooper album? If nothing else, I can say that there are a lot of albums on her that I like and haven't seen on other lists.

I agree with JohnnyO - this chart is a little one dimensional, but I can't argue within the genre you've chosen. Except Meatloaf. What the hell.
