Outstanding chart! I love Doolittle, Graceland, Full Moon Fever, Nebraska, and many others you've selected here. Nice to see Born in the U.S.A. in your top ten, as that's a great album that sometimes gets ignored by critics because of its commercial success. I appreciate the diversity of your picks--lots to explore here.

Pixies, Michael Jackson, Public Enemy, Paul Simon, U2, and The Tragically Hip in your top 10- no bias here. Well done.
