Lots of Genesis (+Collins&Gabriel), but if that's your thing then more power to you. I'm really not a fan of prince, but otherwise I'm digging your overall chart. Good job!

Admittedly 10 Genesis and 6 Radiohead albums in the top 50 alone feels a little excessive to me (not counting the Phil Collins and Peter Gabriel ones as well!), even if both of those are GREAT bands, but it's really cool we share the same favourite album and I really like some of your other picks too, so overall it's quite a nice chart.

I really don't like a lot of the albums in your chart unfortunately and 11 genesis albums is more than a mere mortal like me can handle.

I'm giving you a 60/100 but I just wanna let you know I feel like a dick.

11 Genesis albums, but no Peter Gabriel III? Seems odd that you prefer Peter Gabriel-era Genesis but Phil Collins solo.

Very diverse and interesting chart, containing a lot of albums I love. I just remove five points for the mainstream pop albums (Janet jackson, Phil Collins) which I don't like, and the 11 Genesis albums, which is kind of violent :-)
