I've posted a few lists on here, and after a long arduous process, I got the fifty best albums that have had an impact on me. Eighteen of the fifty are on Rolling Stone Top 500 Albums, and six Queen albums make it. So to leave it open to debate - and probably the six Queen records the most - here I go...

make it? make it? YOU make it sound as if YOUR list was crucial to the bands concerned....Still, I supposed Bri & Roger will be relieved to see that they made it
that aside, some nice choices on your list:
6, 8, 19, 20, 22, 25, 26, 34, 39, 43, 45 & 47
^^^no record collection should be without these
