Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by album guru joe (2013) 
My list consists of what i believe are the greatest albums recorded given thier time of release and the technology availabe with recording the albums (eg. "SMiLE" was done on eight track, "Sgt.Peppers", "Revolver", "Pet Sounds" all on four track),the future influence the albums had on other artists' and the course of contempary music.
By no means is this list "My Favourite Albums", if that was the case it would be dominanted by 1960's music completely...lol.
I only wish it was available for me to list my top 1,000 albums too give a far more comprehensive list that covers how many awesome albums are really out thier....anyways enjoy :)

| I discovered this album...well heard about it in my mid teens...was curious after hearing "Pet Sounds"...and i became on those freaks..lol... who searched for every bootleg of the album i could get my hands on....and finally it's been given an offically release...my track list was not far of the mark(a SMiLE nerd thing...lol)... :) Anyways.....to think this was concieved, written, then recorded and produced (complete or in fragments) by a 24 year old....blows my head away....and all done on a primative eight track recording system is nothong short of mind blowing...Brian Wilson = Genius | |||||||||||||||||||||

My parents are from Liverpool... i was exposed too this amazing band from a very early age...one of my first listening experiences was like alot of kids from my generation "Yellow Submarine"...30 years have past and this is has easily stood out as the best Beatles album ever...(though the track mentioned prior is one of the weaker tracks to me now) this album is brillant in every aspect...early hard rock (Taxman & And Your Bird Can Sing), Pop (Good Day Sunshine, I Want To Tell You, Doctor Robert), Psychedelia (Tomorrow Never Knows, She Said She Said, I'm Only Sleeping), World (Love You To)...and the rest is...gold, brillant. And know i'm a dad...my little girl loves "Yellow Submarine"...eternal music that streaches from generation to generation... |

Smile on the top is a challenging choice. In my opinion, however, this album and Pet sounds should be reversed,
we do not know how Smile would look like in the sixties, as one LP, not a huge set of versions, to choose our favourite.

facelessi think the whole point of this website is for us to share our personal favorites. there's a whole bunch of critics out there to provide us with most influential albums of all time!
so i prefer to see your 60s dominated favorite chart.
but the chart itself is a pretty good one.
