Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by 21stCSchizoidMan 
I would have included the album Casiopea by Casiopea, Death Letter by Son House Adiós Nonino by Piazzolla, Bimbo Satellite by Chris Joss (listen to Tune Down although is not from that album) and also El Paso Del Tigre by Hernán Oliva but they weren´t in the archives. You shuold also check out the 24 Capriches by Paganini, the 5th and 9th symphony by Beethoven and the 5th symphony by Tchaikovsky.
If you find any grammar mistake (which you will surely find), leave a comment and i will correct it.

This is the album that made me start to hear good rock music again. Great story telling mixed with astonishing instrumentation and probably the best guitar solo of all time (of course... in my opinion).

The best Zeppelin ambum to get started with. The very first song probably resumes all Led Zeppelin: Bonham´s incredible drumming with his ferociously fast bass druming, Plant's vocal intensity and sexuality, the addictive mini bass solos of John Paul Jones and Page´s guitar screaming for help as he picks those sharp notes.

For a long time i didn't really get this album. When i started listening Zeppelin almost 3 hours per day i discovered the whole beauty of it: the mystic lyrics, Jones multi instrumentality, Pages ability to compose beautiful ballads and Bonham´s versatility on the drums.

The iconic Pink Floyd's album deserves its title. This concept album contains two of the best guitar solo's ever made, lyrics allusioning capitalism, sanity, time and many other subjects, an astounding vocal solo, some of the best drumming from Mason, the classic bass riff of Money and elegant suspending Richard Wright keyboard playing.

Another stupendous album with a strong first track that makes you want to destroy everything around you (in the good sense). Is incredible how they could record two of the most important albums in history in one year.

If you want to hear most of the classic Who's tracks don´t look any further. The songs in these album deserve to be called classics, they aren't like most modern shitty classics with almost no significant musical contributions, these songs actually are a good (of course any contribution from any band is good as long as it is correctly applied, i leave the definition of "correct" to youself)influence to any musician to be and to any prodigy.

No one can tell a story like David Bowie does in Ziggy Stardust. To do this he became Ziggy and came from the sky to save us. Fortunately his predictions were wrong and we had more than five years to enjoy this masterpiece.
