XPN - The 885 All Time Greatest Albums


For the last few weeks I've been enjoying the WXPN 885 All Time Greatest Albums countdown. As a jaded radio listener I must confess that the countdown was an extremely enjoyable experience. It was so eclectic. One minute it's Crosby Stills & Nash followed by Public Enemy then Frank Sinatra followed by John Coltrane. For this music lover it was radio at its best.

Here's the Top 50. If you interested in the whole click here to download the entire list.

Incidently, my favorite album of all time is Quadrophenia by the Who. I'm glad to see it made the Top 50.
