Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by Bungalowracoon
Apologies again - a quick update for July 2020 -as tastes change and new music is discovered and there were some glaringly obvious omissions (stone roses) -more detailed reasons as described below in 2017
Apologies to the people who kindly took the time to rate and comment on my chart before September 2017, but I am changing/adding to my original chart as my music collection has grown - so your ratings may not reflect the updated chart - sorry !
Basically due to besteveralbums.com I discovered Led Zeppelin !!
due to besteveralbums.com I discovered that there was more to Fleetwood Mac then 'Tango in the night'!
And because of besteveralbums.com I discovered 'Born to run' and fell in love with the entire works of Bruce Springsteen !!!!!!!
So thank you besteveralbums and the people who use it ......... My updated chart (September 2017) is as follows .......
- Chart updated: 08/14/2020 20:15
- (Created: 01/16/2016 10:08).
- Chart size: 100 albums.

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 12% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 87.8/100, a mean average of 88.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.5/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.9.

Great list
Really enjoyed going through your chart! Some great albums in the pocket there. I loved seeing Goat's Head Soup rated so high, man that record is special. Nice to Alanis making the chart as well, I know she sold millions, but sometimes I don't think she gets the critical respect she deserves. haha
anyways, keep on truckin, take care.
Duran Duran deserve this much love.
This is amazing
Some really good music here. You might like The Moon and Antarctica by modest mouse, if you haven’t heard it already. It is older but I just started listening to it recently.
Much in common. And fantastic number one.
Very cool chart - good number one. My favourite album of the 90s by far. And a top one of mine.
Some really good albums, good to see the Breeders and The Top by The Cure. I am listening to songs from that album loads at the minute. Never one of my favourite Cure albums, aside from The Caterpillar, I am beginning to love it now that songs from it keep coming up on my iPod when I play it on shuffle, which I do a lot.
I too am getting into Bruce Springsteen right now.
Some top selections here.
Goats Head Soup (or Let It Bleed)is probably my favorite my favorite Stones album as well.
Really good stuff!
Just yet another fantastic one of they's
Nice stuff! I'd recommend:
Pink Floyd - The Wall
The Smiths - Hatful of Hollow
The Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
The Flaming Lips - The Soft Bulletin
John Lennon - Plastic Ono Band
Tame Impala - Lonerism
Slowdive - Slowdive
Slowdive - Souvlaki

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
