Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by Taric (2013)  

« View previous chartView next chart »

One album per artist and no top 100 to make room for some of my personal favourites and a few lesser known albums. As a result of this is my chart really post 80's-heavy. If you are more into classic rock, this might not be your cup of tea.

Chart updated: 01/12/2013 13:14 (Created: 06/23/2011 18:12). Chart size: 100 albums.

Wowowowowow. My new favorite chart of the site. How is it possible that didn't see that for such a long time? So much things I need to listen from this, within such a huge variety of genres and eras. And almost everything I know, I love to death. I'm in all honesty totally blown away by this. Incredible chart, really.

I wholeheartedly appreciate your effort. It is quite lovely to see a chart not filled top 100s, and with such originality too.
