Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by Liedzeit

Lots of Seventies, I know. I cannot help it. Homer Simpson Syndrome ("Rock attained perfection in 1974"). I was only 20 when the Eighties began, but for me Music basically died then. It is pathetic. I tried to keep an open mind, though. Honest.

When I started listening to music seriously in 1974 one thing was crystal clear. I would not fall for fake music. Or as it was called then progressive rock or avantgarde or art. No Genesis, no Yes, no ELP, no Pink Floyd no Led Zeppelin. Really a punk attitude. I mellowed down since then. In the case of Led Zeppelin I even became a convert. With Pink Floyd, I can understand why people like them. I can tolerate Pink Floyd to some extent and admit that some of their stuff is not really bad (I still hate The Wall, though) but I do only really care except for this one (and the very early stuff). The one with the fly that gets crushed in the end. (Reminds me of a story by Knut Hamsun, by the way.) [First added to this chart: 07/16/2014]

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 3% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 89.4/100, a mean average of 90.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.1/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.0.

Perhaps the most honest chart I've come across on this site ~ no peer pressure here! Although not in my top 100, I really love seeing Karla Bonoff & (Australia's own) Gary Shearston in this chart.

Gute Top 100 mit richtig guten Alben ein paar sind mir unbekannt. Aber du hast auch Klassiker hier drin. Darum gibt es 85 Punkte. Und gut ist dass du auch Tame Impala hier hast.

I totally agree with you that music went downhill rapidly after the 70's, but my taste is completely different to yours. 60's & 70's are by far the best decades for music.

Such a great chart! Siouxsie And The Banshees, Nico and Sparks in top 10 are my favourite picks here. Also Comes a Time as favourite Neil Young record? That's pretty cool

Not really my thing and like you say I think there’s a tad too much focus on the 70s, but really like your notes and eclecticism!!
