What's the highest ranked album on BEA not in that 1001 list to die for. I'll join in but let you all guess first.
The first one gets three Applause

Go for it....

Coincidentally, I was thinking about this earlier.

I haven't checked this out but if memory serves that Neutral Milk Hotel album is not on 1001 albums and it's very high on BEA. Some would say suspiciously high...

Well you beat me: I was convinced it was the Blue Album by Weezer on 73 on BEA but indeed Aeroplane Over The Sea at 17 on BEA is not on that list either while I was convinced it was.

So even four Applause

for you Michael1981!!!

Thanks. I knew my irrational grudge against Neutral Milk Hotel would pay off eventually.

Abbey Road - The Beatles

Yes. Avoid at all costs. It's the devil's music.

Thanks for the warning. I kind of figured that with how dangerous their fans are. I've seen a lot of people on this site say they're really good, but there's this Italian dude that keeps telling me otherwise and so far I'm siding with him.

Yeah they forgot to include classical music albums

Oh, it's no matter. What did Classical music have to offer anyway? The revolution didn't start until 1963 before music performance peaked with Yesterday on the Ed Sullivan show. Why bother staging Der Ring des Nibelungen anymore?

And i'm pretty sure i've heard another 3-8 albums from between the mid-90s and late 00s that for some reason aren't rated here in BEA. (Every album i have rated in BEA, i have heard!)

Shit yeah, that's what I've been trying to say! These Classical listeners just don't know what they're missing!
