Gatsby's Top 50 Albums
#15. Exodus - Bob Marley
The album that got me into reggae. I'm sure it's the same for a whole lot of people.
#14. Are You Experienced - Jimi Hendrix Experience
It's cover is a rare nice blend of yellow and purple.
#13. The Man Who Sold the World - David Bowie
The only problem I have with this particular album is that the title track sounds extremely annoying when listening it on an ipod, for some reason. Other aspects are stellar.
#12. Homogenic - Björk
Experimental electronic pop/alternative music usually means instant turn-off, but the magic of Bjork makes an exception. There was a short period when all I'd listen to was her music.
#11. Disintegration - The Cure
Robert Smith!

Hmmm ... ^ don't like any of those ^ 
Nah, just kidding - a good set of albums, your best yet in this list imo.

The only Bjork album I've heard is "Post" and that's because of Hyperballad, but I really enjoyed it, she has a hauntingly beautiful voice. +1 for Bjork, and I'd like to give you another for "Disintegration" because that is The Cure's best album, with "Pornography" trailing slightly, but alas, I cannot. You have some pretty good stuff so far man, not all of it to my taste, but none lacking artistic merit or unworthy of the praise.

#10. Hell - James Brown
Could have easily chosen Live at the Apollo, but I'm trying to avoid obvious choices. So I went with the album that I personally like. This live album is a lot more heavier than other James Brown performances, informed by the blunt title.
#9. Arthur (Or the Decline and the Fall of the British Empire) - The Kinks
Concept albums tend to have hit-or-miss songs, and moments that are dull and redundant as a result of trying to tell a third-rate story. Not here, as this album works because it doesn't try to be something brilliant, the greatness is already in the songs.
#8. In Utero - Nirvana
Favorite 90's album. Nevermind's polished sound is great, but a raw production is what suits Nirvana in my opinion.
#7. Who's Next - The Who
A hard rockin' album from start to finish, nothing else to describe it really. Nothing like it to get you into a rock n' roll mood after you've listened to, for example, The Cure's Pornography. It's got everything you'd expect from a band like The Who, with a few notches in quality raised. I'd say this is the peak of their career.

I really like In Utero but i kind of hate the way everyone has turned against Nevermind and suddenly In Utero is Nirvana's best. That is bull IMO Nevermind is easily their best, i'm fine with everyone liking whatever but this is revisionism if i have ever seen it.
Actually it seems like a sin to admit you like Nirvana at all on the internet now.

isn't that because of the people who claim that they like Nirvana and wear Nirvana shirts but have only heard of the one song?

Good group there, I like all those albums/musicians. My fave Kinks album is Something Else by the Kinks.
