Your top 100 albums of all time


Blackmail

Recommended Posts

No, I have not made my list yet. Has anyone ever made a top 100 list though? I think I might try it and post it here.

Or is that overkill?

I always read the Spin top 100 albums ever or Q Magazines top 100 albums of the 80's or whatever and wanted to do my own. Maybe I will.

Has anyone else done it?
