Top 4 Music Albums of the 1950s
by Junomoogmello 
Unlike some of my other charts, I am not expecting there to be many albums here. That said, the albums which are here were a launchpad for many of the styles which developed in the sixties. The albums listed are all jazz, both Coltrane and Davies developed free form jazz styles that would later creep into some psychedelic and progressive music styles.
