Top 50 Greatest Music Albums
by RafAze 
A constant work-in-progress, this list covers a wide range of styles and cultures which reflects my own biography. For my initial Top 50, I tried limiting each country of origin to five entries, mainly to showcase non-Anglophone music. As the list grows, this rigidity will certainly disappear.
I've now started adding notes to individual albums but it will take me a few weeks to write texts for all of them.
