Top 36 Greatest Music Albums
by 
AlvaroIesus 
As most charts here, this one is also in constant rotation. Right now, I’m going for a one album per artist type of chart. So, this is a brief selection of my favorite album from each major artist who has accompanied me throughout my life. All are incredibly talented artists, which is why I'll recommend some other great albums or even singles in the description of each.

Este es el álbum definitivo. Desde su contundente título "Sangre en las canciones" hasta su inmejorable portada. El Dylan más ácido y afilado, desplegando su genio de la primera a la última canción del disco.
Y no solo es Dylan, una vez más, un impecable cantautor; también es un excelente vocalista, algo que a menudo se menosprecia. Su vocalización, rítmica, contratiempos y melodías vocales son inseparables de su obra. [First added to this chart: 09/21/2021]

Feroz e imbatible agresividad ingenio en cada pista. Una banda que auténticamente prioriza el expresar sus emociones por encima de tendencias, modas y demás. Enorme cualidad para la agresividad y el surrealismo sonoro sin miedo al coro pop.

Nice start to what I suspect will become a stellar chart. Too few entries to give it a 90+ yet but I suspect that that is where my rating will end up.
