Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by henrygreen0203 (2021) 
In which I sample an album from each decade when my favorite artists were actively releasing music. How I fit it into 100 spaces I'll never know!
Check out my chart honoring the many folk singer/songwriters that hail from Texas.

For context, I am a US white college-educated male born in 1990.
I enjoy clever/funny lyrics.
I hope you enjoy my eclectic picks and discover something new!

Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart is rated in the top 11% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 86.6/100, a mean average of 85.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 14.6.

Excellent chart

Great chart! There's lots of albums that I have to check from your chart, and isn't that the goal of sharing our taste?
pctrooper 09/24/2019 00:52
Certainly quite an original chart. Nice stuff.
Paule 05/03/2019 20:54
Good chart idea! Even though I am personally not that into americana, some solid albums can be found here.
Boltzmann 09/03/2018 12:08
Great taste you got
Peppa 07/16/2018 10:09
Very interesting!
This is awesome, there are so many surprising selections here that I too love. That top ten is so cool. Uncle Tupelo, Drive By Truckers and the Avetts? Wow.
grohly 12/19/2017 17:38
Lots of my favourites here! Flower Boy deserves a top spot.
HoldenM 12/19/2017 15:10
I love charts like this. They're way more interesting.
phantom1305 12/19/2017 13:06
Wow. Such an unique chart! Loved Tyler the Creator and the new Sampha albums. I'm surprised to see them so high in an all time chart, but I'm not complaining either. :)
