Some surprising choices, some not so surprising choices. Tell us whatcha think.

Also if anyone is interested here is a link to the top 500 albums:

That's quite a fair list i think. Obviously most of the albums are a bit obvious but thats because more people are going to own them. I'll never complain with 2 Pixies albums in the top 5! No Smiths though!

I have 49 of them funnily enough

Queen is Dead is 64 ;)

Wow that's actually not bad at all. Some of the choices are surprising but good, and some artists seem to be favored more heavily than I would think, but overall not bad.

I have 47. A much more accurate list of the the more discerning listener even though a few are not in the order I would put them at.

19/24/35 are missing from my collection but I don't rate Pet Sounds at all anyhow!

I didn't have any until #30. I'm surprised Wu-Tang clan is on here though, I don't see them getting talked about much.

i have 1

guess which

You're not missing much there.

I've got 19...

I've got 39 (combining physical and digital), since we're all counting...
