The Top Albums of the Last 50 Years, According to KEXP Listeners

To celebrate their 50th anniversary of being on the air, Seattle radio station KEXP counts down the Top 50 best albums of the past 50 years, as voted by their listeners. Albums are ranked from 647 to 1.
Do note that the number of the list on their website is listed as 648 but is listed here as 647. That's because they put a repeat album somewhere in the list. Also do note that Weezer's "Green Album" is not what's listed, but they weren't being very specific by just putting the entry as "Weezer - Weezer", so putting the Green Album there was the best guess I could do.
