This was an undertaking from last month and really if I'm going to put this much effort in then I may as well put it on here so other people can take a look and say it's awful.
Now I'll admit much of this won't be to everyones taste but then that is purely because it is my taste and some have been picked purely because they are important to me as I kind of grew up on them. Please don't ask where Radiohead are, I like them but not enough to get on my list.
Hope you like it boys and girls, oh and it's in alphabetical order as I couldn't bring myself to decide exactly what order I like them in. So it is done and is here (Hopefully Paul will have his done soon and we can before we know it we'll be disagreeing all over the place)

This is a challenge I feel an urge to accept
I have heard an enormous grand total of nine of those albums.
I need to get the Chinook album though, and I need to do this urgently.
I own 10 of that little list and think I've heard about 10 of t'others. Maybe I'll have to follow David's lead and come up with my own top 50.
I decided to have a go - here. It'd be far to hard if I stopped to think, so I just left flow and stopped when I reached 50.
List done:
