Top 50 Greatest Music Albums
by BoosterShane 
I've always wanted to do this and it was much harder than I thought. I tried to balance the greatness of the entire album (not a select few tracks), historical significance as well as which album I love more. A lot of back and forth and a great excuse to listen to all these albums back to back to back! Enjoy!

Check this album out! You'll get hooked even if you can't understand everything the singer says. Or don't know what sounds they are making. YMO create their greatest achievement and also further music along as they were one of the first bands to use sampling as a main ingredient. They were never about pushing the boundaries of music, just writing great, catchy pop songs. They just so happened to elevate music as they were doing it.
