1/N THREAD: #Top10AlbumChallenge:

I was nominated for the 10 albums in 10 days challenge by two friends.

I previously did this in 2018 (RT below), managing to come up with my top 10, so this time I will continue the list!

2/N #Top10AlbumChallenge:

At that time, I found 1-10 challenging but not super hard to figure out which were in the top 10 tier.

However, I found coming up with 11-20 to be much more difficult.

3/N THREAD: #Top10AlbumChallenge:

I spent the last... like 3 hours (no joke) going through albums I own, my data on listening, and my mind and was able to generate the next 30 albums (!).

I figured this #coronavirus #socialdistancing time at home was a good way to kill time! Interesting mix of sounds and style on this list that heavily influenced my drumming development and my musical tastes.

You're supposed to post only the album cover with no description. Although I won't justify why I chose each album, I will include the album name and my favorite track for interested listeners.

So, without further ado, I'm going to continue for a month and do albums 11-40. Who knows, maybe I'll continue for many months to get through the whole damn #coronavirus pandemic!

9/N THREAD #Top10AlbumChallenge

Some may say this is sort of cheating since it is songs from multiple albums, so I wanted to offer some justification: (1) it was released as it's own album and it went platinum ...

... (2) it was their first performance in almost 3 years and one of Layne's last before he died, and (3) it is a STUNNING performance considered by many rock critics to be one of the best live rock albums ever recorded.)
