Top 50 Greatest Music Albums by McGill93

First attempt at a chart. This should be fun.

BEA was where I got my first real start at listening to albums. Before I came here I played some instruments and listened to classic rock almost exclusively, but that's about it. Since then it's been a great time discovering new music and I can't see it ending any time soon.

I was a little worried since I got my start with this site, that my chart would look all too familiar with others. Honestly I still think that's the case, but it'd be better this way than to be dishonest in my chart.

Anyway, thank you BEA for introducing me to the music I love so very much.

Some really cool choices, and I totally agree with your chart description too. "Too generic" is not used in context of classic albums like these, of course everybody likes them that's why they're classics
