a list that proves the 60s and 70s were far better?

Have you listened to all the albums on the list?

 

[CHAPPERS]

I think the list is pretty good really, though Untrue by Burial should probably be top if we're being honest.

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

Blimey, I've actually got 7 of them. ….. the more respectable ones of course. Toumani Diabate and Ali Farka Toure, both Amy Winehouse, Blackstar, Fleet Foxes, and …… 2 others.

Edit - The XX and P J Harvey. (Let England Shake.)

 

[Ninja Elephant]

That list is an absolute joke. American Idiot by Green Day, Meteora by Linkin Park and Recovery by Eminem are all obvious absentees from that ridiculous list.

I’ve not bought any 21st music...who are these musicians you speak of? Ed Stewart and the like? But wasn’t he great on Radio Mercury? (the heaaaaart of the souuuuuth!)

 

[wallyback]

Good list - Frank Ocean and Joanna Newsom are excellent.

I'm with you on this one. In fact I thought Lady Gaga was a woman! Apparently, it's this chap. Who knew?

 

[Machiavelli]

Is Alexei Sayle included?

 

[big nuts]

Some good stuff in there I own 54 of the 100. But loads of great stuff left out.

Also highlights for me what a good decade 2000-09 was but not so good this decade. Maybe it’s just me having less time to buy and listen though.

 

[Whitechapel]

Big Kanye fan but Yeezus in to the top 20? Absolute bollocks. It’s not in his best 5 albums ffs.

MBDTF at 3 is spot on though. Dizzee, Kendrick & The Streets in the top 10. I’m a fan.

Recovery?

The lack of emojis leaves me wondering if this is serious

 

[big nuts]

3 stand out albums for me

1.In Rainbows - Radiohead
2.Sound of Silver - LCD Soundsystem
3.Turn on the Bright Lights - Interpol

Plenty of other really good stuff but those 3 are absolute classics

 

[Machiavelli]

For me, favourites would include:
Radiohead -- Kid A, In Rainbows
Elliott Smith -- Figure 8, From a Basement on the Hill
Bon Iver -- Forever Emma
Ty Segall -- Manipulator
Michael Kiwanuka -- Love & Hate

 

[Driver8]

I have two of the top 50. Both Radiohead.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Agree about Amy whitehouse...brilliant album and love every single track!

 

[Dave the OAP]

Love is a losing game is just sublime

 

[redoubtable seagull]

Surprised to see I have over 20 of them and listen to none of them now. They just sit in the large listened to pile.
