\"itunes_image\"<\/a>Nearly 4 years ago, we first counted down the Top 200 albums in my iTunes library. Since that time, I\u2019ve successfully managed to migrate my music collection to a new PC with the stats intact. So, I figured it was time to take another look, based on number of plays from late 2007 through January 1, 2018.<\/p>\n

We continue with the next batch of 10 albums ranked between #60 and 70, including 3 studio recordings, 2 compilations, 2 comedy albums, 1 greatest hits collection, 1 soundtrack, and 1 live performance.<\/p>\n
