Who has the best chart?

dihansse · 2016-03-19T11:19:57-04:00

To me the best charts are the ones which not only stand out because of the originality of the chosen albums but mainly because they contain original and especially personal comments on those albums (to which of course you shouldn't necessarily agree, that's why they're personal). The only problem is that you have to go through many lists without those comments before you come across one which is really good. So I would like you to suggest the ones which stand out on that front with also the reason why you like them so much (and preferably not your own chart :wink: ) My personal favorite is the "Top 50 Greatest Music Albums" by Dingerbell not only because of the personal comments but also because of the original touch in adding individual tracks where he highlights the individual places in songs which especially touch him (like the harmonies around minute 2.20" which challenge you to go and find them. Also LouisJWyatt, Pearljammer13, Jasonconfused, KinkyAfro, LadyGodiva and the great Romanelli himself are worth mentioning.

Funny discussions on the me theme but I think you're misging the point: the best is to comment on other people's charts and preferably the ones on this site: as far as I know Scaruffi does not have a chart on this site at least not under his own name :)

Not so sure about that...

there are indeed people referring to Scaruffi and of course there are worst references but that doesn't mean it's the master himself 😉

Am I literally the only person to reply seriously to the question?

Not now.

Personally the best charts for me are those that I click with by finding some common ground alongside things I've never heard before. Consequently, Bruno's, Suede's, Norm's, Brandon's and of course my SITFOTS Lady Godiva are my top 5 overall ones.

I don't buy the fact that comments somehow make a chart any better, despite having had comments on mine since day one. There are a couple of charts with comments that bore the tits off me.

its rly hard to say best, I've maybe gotten the most pulls from exit sense. I guess what i value most is charts that I share some knowledge with and it's like "hey this is coming from a place I'm interested in" but then also havin stuff I need to check out. satie, dbz, and andyw off the top of my head also are high up there, there's a lot of good ones here tho.

Of course I agree that long texts can be very boring but If they're really original they shouldn't be even If you don't connect with the musical style; in any case your chart and Gow's are definitely fitting the definition

I’m kind of bored by charts without notes, in all honesty. Perhaps this is a character flaw on my part but I feel you don’t really get a comprehensive understanding beyond a list of albums. You can infer sounds they like, but that’s about it. Even with my unfinished chart I try to give that understanding—that personal exposition to the reader so they don’t just go “huh, 4 stars I guess.”.

I think I'm with Gowi on this. I like to hear what people think of what they like. Once upon a time I had big 'ol micro-essays to that effect but they were bad so now they're gone, but I still appreciate the presence of that kind of thing in other charts
