Top 23 Music Albums of 1978 by drstuey

Recently listened for #5albums78 and it was really difficult to decide on my choices. The things that stood out about 1978 were: musical stops were very common; too many artists put on over-the-top stupid voices; there were a lot of rock songs with a reggae backing; there were quite a few problematic sexist lyrics.
