Top 40 Greatest Music Albums
by ushioni 
I tried to consider top albums considering my entire "career" as a music fan... in another words I don't actively listen to all of these albums. I removed the Jazz records to give me more room.

This is great! Very unique chart with fantastic picks, and Sing To God at #1! Please give me some recommendations, I've heard of many of these artists but have listened to very few.
Have you heard Angel Dust by Faith No More? Based on the albums here, I feel like you're already a big fan, but just in case, please give it a listen.
