Top 100 Greatest Music Albums
by prego9816 
For each album, I have ups (^) and downs (v). Ups label songs on the album I really like and downs label songs I dislike. If most songs on an album are given an "up", the comment will say "^ All songs except..."

I love Rundgren and most of the other bands on here, but it feels like this chart consists of 5 or 6 bands’/artists’ discographies. I look forward to more variety!

Haven't listened to enough Todd Rundgren to properly rate this... Will come back to rerate when I do my homework... The rest of the chart seems cool, except the Collins stuff which I don't like that much
