Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by Hyggevinyl

This list is updated continously. I am in the process of going through at least 20 albums each year thoroughly listening to albums I haven't heard from other peoples list. I listen to a lot of instrumental music: Jazz, electronic, ambient, instrumental rock and so on. When I hear songs, I focus on the music over the lyrics for the most part.

Legendary. The wild build up in Lo Borges in Girassol, the melancholic longing in Milton Nascimentos voice. Acid guitar bossa mood in some of the later tracks. This is easily one of the albums I've heard the most in recent years. [First added to this chart: 07/14/2022]

Listen to this album on a proper stereo setup, and come back to me. Some great classics here. And some totally underrated gems like 1983. If you don't appreciate this, upgrade your sound system. [First added to this chart: 07/17/2022]
