Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by NowhereMan

29 years of age. RECOMMENDATIONS ALWAYS WELCOME.

ORDER CHANGES REGULARLY.

I tend to see any album I rate above 70//100 worth a re-visit, any lower I tend to dismiss.

My top artists:

1. The Beatles - an audio best friend; they make the world a lot brighter and optimistic. The absolute pinnacle. The best thing the world has produced. Colossal.
---------------------------
2. Electric Light Orchestra
---------------------------
(Interchangeable order).

3. The Rolling Stones
4. Pink Floyd
5. Led Zeppelin
6. The Smiths
7. Neil Young
8. The Velvet Underground
9. Bob Dylan
10. The Who
11. David Bowie
12. Oasis
13. The Beach Boys
14. Radiohead
15. Simon & Garfunkel
16. The Kinks
17. Bruce Springsteen
18. Arcade Fire
---------------------
(Honourable Mentions)
The Stone Roses
R.E.M
Brian Eno
The Tallest Man On Earth
Tame Impala
Fleetwood Mac


My ratings on an album can be based on the emotion it evokes within me, the quality of the musicianship, the amount of nostalgia it summons, it's importance in the broad pantheon of music. Even something as simple as how many times it gives me goosebumps across the length of an entire listen.

ONE ALBUM PER ARTIST - it is also most certain I have heard a an abundance of other material by each artist only the one I will have chosen is the one that I am digging the most currently and resonates the most to me at this point in my life.

These lot are an audio best friend; they make the world a lot brighter and optimistic. The absolute pinnacle. The best thing the world has produced. A Colossal.
Obviously for people who know me on this site I am four obsessed. They are the soundtrack to my life and are one the greatest pleasures in life for me. They are like an audio best friend - they are always there when in need.

I can be digging any given Beatle album more than the others on any given day, so this position is very much prone to change and agonising deliberation!

I am most definitely what people may still call a 'Beatlemaniac'. I read, breathe, listen and love them.

For a two-year period at university (during which time I barely came on this site) any opportunity I had to listen to music it would be Morrissey, Marr and co. Their discography contains some of the most bittersweet, romantic and melancholy lyrics/melodies. For me this album takes the cake. It contains the band at their rawest. The production means the songs are not as tight or as crisp as other albums but it is the imperfections on this that make it perfect. When songs such as Reel around the fountain or Please Please Please start to play I literally have to stop what I'm doing and sway.

The most underrated band of all time. Jeff Lynne and his light orchestra are absolutely brilliant. For me this is his masterpiece. It flows as well as as any other stock rock/pop classic. Everybody should give this a listen. The variety on this album really is awe worthy, yet it still manages to hold that obvious ELO sound whilst also working perfectly as a concise album. For me this is as essential to any music collection as anything by the four, Floyd, Zep, Dylan or any of the other big boys and girls. Genuinely it will be 40 minutes of your life you will not regret.

(Review of The Beach Boys - Today!, which previously held the #9 position)
A lovely record. I like to think of it as a primitive Pet Sounds. Brian Wilson and his melodies really do start to branch out here and the songs from the boys here seem to adopt a more classic and baroque melody structure as opposed to the short snappy sun and surf songs of previous years. Because of this development, songs such as Please Let Me Wonder and I'm So Young are just as beautiful as anything off the preferred Pet Sounds. The other tracks aren't too far off either.

The overlooked seventies effort from Floyd. Ironically, the best. Gilmour's guitar playing is at it's most consistent and mesmerising, whilst the lyrics are open for interpretation. A compelling listen.
This album really did help those countless hours of study and revision I had to endure once upon a time at school.

No doubt in my mind that this is Dylan's magnus opus. Whilst not only working best as a cohesive III album, it also possesses his greatest individual numbers. Stuck Inside The Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again and Sad Eye Lady Of The Lowlands may well both be my top two Dylan songs - and that's a prestigious accolade indeed. There are snippets of lyrics on here that are just sublime - note 4th Time Around. Will always be one of my all time favourites. It's been with me years now.

The Stones at their peak. The final 4 tracks on this ensures to me it is one of the greatest second sides of an album ever. Who could of thought that this rough rock outfit could pen and perform such charming, beautiful melodies. Absolutely no filler here. Each individual effort is dripping in substance. I always discover something new everytime I listen to this. It's a class act from a band at their peak.

One of the best kept hidden secrets of the 1960s. Inspired a certain Pete Townshend to create Tommy the following year. First heard this gem when I was unaware of its year of release and for about 3 months had it in my head that it was from the 1990s. Loneliest Person is the best ever song under a minute and a half too. The opening three songs have fantastic groove. Definitely in my all time top ten of the sixties.

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 has a Bayesian average rating of 86.1/100, a mean average of 84.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.1/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 14.8.

I really love this chart - it speaks honesty & passion. I like the one album/artist concept. I like the acknowledgement that each decade brings a worthy share of worthy albums. I enjoyed the comments very much. I really like it that we only have 8 albums in common, but 24 artists in common - including songwriters that rarely make it to a top 100 chart - eg Cat Stevens, Don McLean. Donovan, Dave Gray & Tallest Man On Earth. And I especially love your love of Dylan - your album rankings pretty much match mine, except I would have BOTT at no.1.

Coming back to this and it made me smile. Thanks for the shoutout on the Shallow Grave Write up. I notice no grade for The Wild Hunt - but 2 for Shallow Grave. *thinking emoji*

Anyway, I love the love for the Beatles. You are to the Beatles what I am to Bob Dylan. Lol

A good one. Respect your chart and you have some mostly unkown bands here. Interesting is your number 1 with the beatles. One German band is ok but I like the German bands very much maybe you could include one more. But Nevertheless good chart.

Tremendous selection. I respect any chart that introduces me to something new in the top ten.

And the more love for Eno the better.

Amazing list. I agree with what others said about compliations though.
BTW I agree that S.F. Sorrow sounds way ahead of its time.
I would recommend you to listen to Depeche Mode's Violator, I think you will find it fascinating.

I loved your list. You clearly put a lot of time and thought into it. I would strongly recommend listening to Bowie's Station to Station (my favorite tracks are Golden Years and Sway)

Recommendations:
Revisiting Coldplay's first 4 excellences (Parachutes, ARoBTTH, X&Y, Viva La Vida)
Revisiting Michael Jackson's entire classic catalog (Off The Wall, Thriller, Bad, Dangerous, HIStory, Invincible)

Black Eyed Peas: Behind The Front + Elephunk
PM Dawn (R.I.P. Prince Be): The Utopian Experience + Bliss Album + Dearest Christian
Shelter: Double Yellow Lines (sheltermusic.bandcamp.com)
Avicii (R.I.P.) - just as great as Calvin Harris
