Top 12 Music Albums of the 1950s by

If an album is in my Top 100 Greatest Music Albums of all time, it will not re-appear in this one. There are not many 50s albums in my collection, so I intend to listen to any suggestions from other users about what might go in my chart.

I love this album. I bought my first Monk album after reading a NME obituary in 1982. He sounded great and the album did not disappoint. There was a great picture that went with the article and it was framed and lived on my walls until it got badly damaged around 10 years ago.
