Here are my top 50 favorite albums (as of 8:44pm on December 4, 2020.) I'm not suggesting these are the the best albums of all time, (though they kind of are!) But they're just my personal favorites. The criteria being, one album per band, one solo project per band and no best of compilation albums. I look forward to your angry tweets and e-mails.
