1.) I limited myself to five albums from one artist otherwise this list would have been much less diverse and basically 30 or 40 artists that I love
2.) When I list multiple albums by one artist, they are in order starting with most favorite
3.) When a box set was complete and contained all the music of an artist, I used that instead of individual albums (Examples-The Jam, The Velvet Underground)
4.) I made no separation due to genre. All kinds of music mixed together which is the way it should be.
5.) After the first 50 or 60 artists and albums, I gave up trying to organize them but mostly they are in order of favorites.

You did not put a single Roling Stones record on there. Not one. Now, you know Beggar's Banquet is a good album. Secretly, you love Beggar's Banquet.
If I had to pick a fave Stones album that would probably be the one....But just not hat motivated for the Stones I'm afraid!
