Epilogue...
A few weeks ago I began compiling my ‘Top Albums of 1995’ chart.
After several months of listening to, and rating / ranking 400+ albums to develop my ‘Top 300 Albums of 1994’ chart(s), I was more than ready to start digging into the following year. So… I just wanted to put an end-cap on this 1994 chart forum with some final thoughts.

While researching 1994, I added roughly 120+ new albums to BEA’s database, with approximately 75% of those albums making the cut for my Top 300. In total, I’ve listened to a little more than 400 albums to find my favorite 300 albums of ’94. But I gave ratings to everything that was weeded out; the majority of which earned a score of only 65/100 and below.

How did the albums of 1994 fare in terms of overall rankings? Well, my #1 favorite album of ’94 is GBV’s “Bee Thousand” which now also sits atop my Top 100 Greatest Music Albums chart... so that's a pretty nice accomplishment for an album of ANY given year . My next highest rated album of ’94, Melvins “Stoner Witch” (earning a score of 95.4354), didn’t even break into my overall Top 100, but would currently sit at #249 of all-time faves.

1994 had only a slightly more significant impact on my Top 100 Music Albums of the 1990s

#1. Guided By Voices - “Bee Thousand”
#52. Melvins - “Stoner Witch”
#91. Nirvana - “MTV Unplugged In New York”
#97. Pavement - “Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain”
#99. Beastie Boys - “Ill Communication”


Thanks to everyone who offered feedback, commentary and ratings to my 1994 charts!! Much appreciated The final chart results look a lot different today than they did a few months ago. So, for anyone who may be interested… here’s the entire list of goodies linked below.

Top 100 Music Albums of 1994

Top Albums of 1994... #101-200

Top Albums of 1994... #201-300

I’ll undoubtedly continue to unearth some additional 1994 albums over the upcoming weeks, but for now the focus is on sorting out another Top 300 of 1995.

I hope everyone is taking good care to stay healthy... and keep on enjoying great music!!
