TOP 250 albums

                               

If I would own each album I'd like to have, then maybe only 100 entries will remain in this list. Here you'll find my fave 250 albums ever (that I already could find). Unlike other lists you will find also a lot of compilation albums that are essential in my record collection. Also a few soundtracks are included.
