Top 40 Greatest Music Albums by 
SorenHighwind 
This is just a collection of my favorite albums, not which ones I think are the "best". These are also listed in the order I thought of them, rather than least favorite to most favorite. I feel that there are simply far too many good albums out there for me to pick just one to stand over the rest, you know?

Great chart! Very original with a nice variety of music. Also, the top ten is really good, it is not common to see Physical Graffiti in the first place. Expand!
