The list does not include "Greatest Hits", compilations or boxed sets.
Compiling a list such as this is difficult in the fact that there are so many other great albums that I had to leave off but still enjoy. Because of that there is a good possibility that this list will be updated with new albums added and some currently listed removed.

Mel's Top 30 Albums of All Time

This is a list of albums that I have come to enjoy over the years and play from start to finish whenever I load them into my CD or tape player. Over the years I have probably bought 1, 2, 3 or more copies of these albums in some format or another. I have also made tapes of these albums through the years and have them stored on my iTunes.
Linked albums take you to an Amazon.com order page.
