\"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 things with the next batch of 10 albums that rank between #140 and 147, including 5 studio recordings, 2 compilations, 1 live performance, 1 CD single, and 1 comedy record.<\/p>\n
