Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by weedygonsalez (2013) 
I'm not including anything by the Beatles, Pink Floyd, Nirvana and Led Zeppelin because, really, they don't need my love. From a quick glance everything on this site already skews super-heavily toward unconditional love for the classic rock greats, so I'll just give them a little holla from this blurb over here. Holla!
Everything from 1 - 20 goes to 11. 21 - 65 are all solid 10s. 66+ are all, at most, only a few decimals or decibels away from perfection.
Bubbling just below the radar:
Albert Ayler - Spiritual Unity
Albert King - Born Under a Bad Sign
Art Brut - Bang Bang Rock and Roll
Captain Beefheart - Trout Mask Replica
The Cars - The Cars
Caribou - Andorra
Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables
Destroyer - Kaputt
Dinosaur Jr. - Farm
Donovan - Sunshine Superman
Eric B & Rakim - Paid in Full
The Format - Dog Problems
Gorillaz - Plastic Beach/Demon Days
Herbie Hancock - Head Hunters
Jack Rose - Luck in the Valley
James Blackshaw - Cloud of Unknowing
Jesus and Mary Chain - Psychocandy
King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King
Kleenex Girl Wonder - Ponyoak
Marvin Gaye - Let's Get It On
Michael Jackson - Thriller
The O'Jays - Back Stabbers
Ohio Players - Fire/Honey
Okkervil River - Don't Fall in Love With Everyone You See/The Stage Names
Phaoroah Sanders - Karma
Sparklehorse - Good Morning, Spider
T Rex - The Slider
T.I. - King
Thelonious Monk - Genius of Modern Music

| Galaxie 500 is the sound of winter. It proceeds ever just so slightly slowly, like snow blanketing the ground. But that doesn't mean it's boring, like watching snow blanketing the ground. This is the sound of winter because it's also the sound of a fireplace, with angelic vocals, cathartic drums, and jangly guitars synchronizing perfectly on every song. Plus, the best '80s saxophone solo is on this album, a marvelous feat, given that the '80s were the best decade for saxophone solos. | |||||||||||||||||||||

SingingPeasant96 1 day agothrilled by ur picks
congrats on The Meadowlands! its in my top ten now.
Anyone Who has Loveless #1 is alright with me.
the notes, the hip-hop selections (wu-tang and pharcyde esp.), TMBG with no shame, laughing stock, rain dogs, cure for pain, marquee moon...quite sweet, my man...choice lineup.
meccalecca 04/29/2013 19:18There's really something for everyone to like here, while avoiding the standard picks. The inclusion of The Joggers was really great to see. That bands never got the love they deserved
EyeKanFlyNot only is this chart's content fantastic, but you clearly put a huge amount of effort into your chart. Good job!
Mercurydylan89 04/29/2013 13:13Sooooo great! Love this chart so so so much! Thanks!
The coincidence of rap highlights and the items of alternative rock is amazing.
SilverWalrus 04/29/2013 08:07Fantastic chart, absolutely love the diversity and notes. I'm going to be grabbing plenty of recommendations from this one.
Your chart is responsible for more wish list additions then any source I've run across since I started on this site. Brilliant selections with even better album notes. Bravo!
