Top 50 Greatest Music Albums
by hairbandsrule 
I am not ashamed to say, I love the hair bands. There are still passionate hair band fans that remain to this. On the heavier side of things people still love hearing Black Sabbath and Priest. What other genre of rock can say the same? I have included what I feel are some of the better albums even if the band is unknown in some cases.

This is such a fun album with a real southern hard rock feel. There is not track on this I don't love to hear.

How was she not huge? This bluesy hard rock album contains powerhouse vocals and simply great musicianship.

People overlook Alice's newer works way too much. This one is a good balance between old school Alice and newer Alice. This is a great concept piece.

To me this was the cream of the crop for this very talented band.

It infuriates me that this band, who is still around, never gets any credit for fans of thrash. They consistently put out very heavy aggressive music with a little bit of melody thrown in. This is probably their most complete work.

I love the first two Skid Row records. This one shows progression in songwriting and is much heavier than the first.

Another overlooked band, this one doesn't have a bad song on it.
[First added to this chart: 02/20/2011]
I still never get tired of listening to most of Ratt's music, with this one of the best of the genre for ANY band.

I am going to take some heat from Maiden fans (and yes I do like some of Maiden's stuff) but I actually slightly prefer Dickinson's better solo works.
