The overall chart does what it does, Richies chart does what it does. They are totally different, but i appreciate both the lists. If we could change anything i'd probably look at weighting the lists by country so UK lists don't dominate or any other countries outnumbers another.

TOP 10: 76 stars
TOP 100: 70 "
But best points I give to huge number of the Albums, over 5.000!
Many interesting album stand/move position 1.000 - 5.000.
And tasteful comments... 😎

On topic: I personally love the list. Obviously, there are a few albums that I wish deserved more attention (coughLittleEarthquakescough), but that's more of an issue of it being unknown than anything else.

The Tori Amos album? It was pretty popular for a while there...must be more of a case of "forgotten" than "unknown". Silent All These Years got a lot of time on eMpTy Vee.

It's good list. Some stuff is way to high but it does seem very accurate in places. 7.0

I like it... mostly stuff I know and like (enough to reassure me I'm part of a broader culture), some stuff I don't (enough to reassure me that I retain some individuality, or, erm, UNIQUEness (oxymoron?) 😉 and the prospect that there's still more to explore!

It is pleasing to be among people of broadly similar musical tastes, but I would be most distressed if my tastes where mirrored exactly in the whole...for what would that say about me?

(or is this the other side of another current thread?)

I think that it is a good list. The selection of "feeder charts" (VH1, RS, NME) could be improved to bring more current albums into the database faster and to expand its flavour (relatively too many UK lists now). I suggest including Best 100 Charts from AV Club and Pitchfork if they are not already.

The only criticism I have is the amount of Beatles and Radiohead in the top 20, but apart from that, it is a good representative of the best ever albums,

80/100

Most posters are pretty well versed in a few genres, and if you look at several lists, then you get a damn good idea of what good music is. I think this site would be A material; we all know what we're talking about, mostly.

74/100, aka a C. Adequate but really could do better, with a lot of good stuff and a ton of crap to go with it.

Now tell me how you really feel about the site's overall list(s). What would you rate it?
