Top 40 Greatest Music Albums by 
BrilliantDisguise 
These albums are not really in order of preference. This is just a list of my top albums. Bruce Springsteen is my favorite artist which is why all of his albums are at the top of the list. I'll be adding more of my favorites as time goes on.

A top ten full of Springsteen is sure a sight for sore eyes. Your Van Morrison picks are pretty fab to.

Ahhh Jungleland is a great song! It's probably my third favorite by the Boss (after Born to Run and the River), it's just so emotional. Plus, I think it has the best imagery I've ever heard in a song. And dat solo...

Haha wow lots of the Boss! My chart was actually pretty similar to yours when I first came to the site, not in the sense that I had the same albums, but in that more than half of the albums were either by the Beatles or Beatles related. The stuff you like now is all really good, so I bet you'll be able to expand your horizons with this site! I'm only just beginning myself and am so excited that you'll be able to find out just how great music can be with me!
Also, I have to ask: what's your favorite song by Bruce?
