Tier 3 - 1 Star Albums

Very good classic albums. Although I love them I don’t think that they are consistently excellent enough to be Great or Perfect. This is due to some weaker (but not bad) songs. If you want to browse by decade simply hit "Ctrl+F" and type in what you want (for example - type 198 for the 1980s... 201 for the 2010s... etc).
