I have a pretty wide range of musical tastes, and this decade, I have a way to look through my music collection and select which ALBUMS I liked the most, because I have my entire 1100+ CD collection ripped to 192 kbps mp3 files, with folders by artist, as well as plenty of downloads.

I decided not to try to pick a 10 best, but just go through the folders and pick the stuff that has stuck with me and I go back to for various reasons. You may not find a bunch of artists you know - many of these I have settled on because of lyrics or production or just plain delight.

A few that didn't make this list that I don't own yet but I keep going back to on Spotify/Amazon Music: A Moon Shaped Pool by Radiohead, Plini (everything this band does - sheesh!), Sun Structured by Temples
