If you're referring to my list, that wasn't what we played all year. I was leader, but didn't have absolute control over the music selections. Here's some of what we played this past year

Sound of Silver – LCD Soundsystem
Things Fall Apart – The Roots
Ctrl – SZA
Plays and Sings the Blues – John Lee Hooker
(No Pussyfooting) – Fripp & Eno
Turn on the Bright Lights - Interpol
Purple Rain – Prince
Fleet Foxes – Fleet Foxes
Miles Ahead – Miles Davis
Parallel Lines – Blondie
Moanin’ – Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers
A Phil Spector Christmas
Glassworks – Philip Glass
Pieces of a man – Gil Scott-Heron
Presenting the fabulous Ronettes featuring Veronica – The Ronettes
Blue – Joni Mitchell
Setbacks – Schoolboy Q
Headhunters – Herbie Hancock
Dust Bowl Ballads – Woody Guthrie

Nice picks. Nice variety. I'd join. lol

I especially like the inclusion of the what I've bolded.

Moanin' is from the 50s.

Yes I have listened to Moanin' by Art Blakey but have not heard Free for All.

Healthy selection of jazz albums.

Have you heard Art Blakey's Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers (aka Moanin') or Free For All?

Well, not all albums have justification. Only 3 if I remember correctly. But as for feedback, mostly just if you think something should be higher or a different album by an artist should be above another.

What sort of feedback are you looking for? As far as I can tell, you've done everything correctly. 100 albums that you like with comments justifying your position.

Hey there folks, I just updated my chart with 100 albums for the first time, and I would like some feedback. Before you complain: 1) Yes, I know 50% are from the 70s, I don't care and 2) Once I get past 100 my taste really diversifies, I swear. Also, let me know if you think any other albums by certain artists should be higher/lower, I like hearing people's preferences of certain artists albums. Anyway, have at it! 😁
