Top 100 Music Albums of 1971 by neilgee

This is a reciprocal chart between myself and the bea charts. I have put long standing favourites first obviously (there were 11 '71 albums in my 70's 100 so it's obviously a year I have an affinity with) and considering that I've been listening to other members favourites and rating them as I do it, in other words going through the bea 71 chart and rating albums I haven't previously heard as I do it. This chart is a result of those listening sessions and the only way I would have such a large chart for a year that was before I began buying records. Plus I've added a few that I thought were good enough to compete with what's already on bea.
