101-200, The Waiting Room (Or The Obligatory Next Ton) of Dread by Jimmy Dread

Yep, I've caved in to doing a chart with another 100 LPs that would otherwise be in the all-time 100 were it not for the fact that there's 100 albums better. Not that there's much wrong with any of these picks - they're all zingers (and on any given day one of the first 50 in this list could easily sneak into the 100 when one of the incumbents has their back turned). Be amazed as some albums that you're likely sick to death of co-exist with obscure shit from Brazil or Jamaica. Enjoy it whilst it lasts, as being the pinickity git I am I'll probably delete this chart in a fit of rage when my son decides to run off with my DAC again. Out of all the the charts of mine on here, this is probably the most likely to fluctuate, and will more likely reflect my current listening habits than even my overall 100 (of which a few of these LPs will doubtlessly make in due time). Comments to follow where there are none when I can be arsed, plunder it for recs all you like... Jimmy, May 2021

PICK - Ageing Had Never Been His Friend; FIRST HEARD: Rough Trade indie-pop compy. Sounding like a 21st Century X-Ray Spex and straight outta Stockholm, Love Is All make a hell of an indie-pop racket, horns and all. This album is made all-the-more essential as pretty much everything they did after it was total guff - maybe they OD'd on Ryvita. Shame 'cos if they'd continued in this vein they could have taken over the world and not just Scandinavia. [First added to this chart: 06/26/2015]

PICK - Rodney King (Song For Lenny Bruce); FIRST HEARD: Select Magazine, early 90s. Around the time when Creation could do no wrong, a bunch of scousers decided to make proto-Britpop's answer to The White Album (or at the very least Sandanista). Some 20 years down the track and it's aged remarkably well, despite the gloss being taken off it by that dire "Wake Up Boo" track even the wife knows. "Wishing I Was Skinny" proudly sits alongside Pet Sounds' "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times" as songs for my own sonic epitaph. [First added to this chart: 08/09/2014]

PICK - Turning Blue; FIRST HEARD: Bloghopping. Not an ounce of fat here - garage anthems on a Flying V played to within an inch of their existence, with strings sounding like they could snap to bits at any moment. The cover of the Adverts' "We Who Wait" is awesome - he sounds a dead ringer for TV Smith. Coincidentally I went for a run the other day for the first time ever (mid-life crisis health-kick). This was the soundtrack. RIP Jay... :( [First added to this chart: 03/17/2018]

PICK - I Used To Be A Cheesepuff; FIRST HEARD: random guy spun it in Plug.DJ. Ever since I started compiling charts on BEA my no. 100 has always been something of a novelty. In this case hardcore punk meets Devo in a blender gets here on merit as well as being the most exciting 20 minutes of your life. Unless you're a dull Springsteen or Yes-loving fuckwit.
