Most of the albums I have are compilations, so I haven't heard that many proper albums per se. Anyway, this list probably wouldn't change radically, although a few on the list may get pushed down over time as I hear more albums...
While these are ordered in favouritism, the first two I currently consider tied. Anyway, on with it!

1. Days Of Future Passed - The Moody Blues. Simply a must own masterpiece!!
1. Avalon - Roxy Music. I was listening to it on the way home last night from the MFBB concert at Sutton Grange Winery. It's absolutely beautiful!
3. Tusk - Fleetwood Mac. We all know why...
4. Tango In The Night - Fleetwood Mac. If the B-sides were also on it (I've made a playlist where they're inserted rather cleverly, if I do say so myself) it'd probably be tied with Tusk for me...
5. Soul Cages - Sting. Another beautiful album!
6. The Turn Of A Friendly Card - The Alan Parsons Project. As stated by Zombie.
7. American Pie - Don McLean. "Everybody Loves Me Baby" is my favourite track for the album, in case you wanted to know...
8. Go Insane - Lindsey Buckingham. I just love the sounds he created for it!
9. Out Of The Cradle - Lindsey Buckingham. Self explanatory.
10. Brothers In Arms - Dire Straits. "Sultans Of Swing" is my favourite songs of theirs, but this is their best album!

Dido's first two albums could make a top 20 list, let alone FM's Mystery To Me, Heroes Are Hard To Find, Fleetwood Mac, Rumours, and Mirage. I'd also include The Doors' Strange Days and L.A. Woman, and the self-titled Tracy Chapman ("Fast Car" is my favourite, but all the songs are fantastic).
As stated before, I haven't heard many albums (very sadly, none by Pink Floyd... ), but these ones listed are still extremely difficult to beat!
