all-time fav arteests (pts) #001-100 by paladisiac
01/07/2021 = top 4000 update, then XTC/van morrison update (van morrison leaps into my top 100 artists!)
01/08/2021-and-0n = first-listens to albums by artists 76-100
01/19/2021 = onto artists 101-125 (incl. van morrison, marvin gaye & animal collective)
04/08/2021 = "back to the egg"
07/02/2021 = top 4300 updates
09/13/2021 = top 4400 updates
12/21/2021 = top 4500 update INCLUDING 2021 albums; then updated 101-195 which promoted sufjan stevens and the killers into this top 100!
03/22/2022 = bob dylan ("modern times" added)
07/12/2022 = top 4800 update!
10/28/2022 = top 4900 update
12/19/2022 = top 5000 update INCLUDE 2022 albums
09/20/2023 = REREVIEWED my entire top 900 albums
Here i'm ranking my favorite artists of all-time by an artist-album-points method, current through new albums released in the year *2020*. I'm ranking artists by giving points to each artist based on where their albums rank within my top 4300 albums (updated 07/02/2021). The #1 album ("mellon collie...") is worth 4300 points and the #4300 album is worth 1 point.
I just felt like having another perspective on my favorite artists of all-time. The official list of my all-time fav artists is called "my all-time fav artists" (with companion list of #101-200) and factors in total impact of that artist IMO (regardless of album catalog breadth).
Obviously, a lengthy album catalog will garner a higher ranking on this list than an artist with a handful of strong material. Also, there are some artists of which i grouped albums of other monikers; for example, prince & the npg and prince & the revolution both count as prince, ryan adams along with his cardinals count as ryan adams, etc. (I generally did that when that 1 artist was the dominant, creative force or focal point of the artist's popularity.)
This does not count "current year" albums. Once a year is complete, i will add ranking points for those artists' albums to this list.
For each artist, i will be including my fav album of theirs. In the comment section, i will give their point total.

super interesting
I give you so much credit for figuring out a way to do this. I tried to do something similar, and was just too much work and too overwhelming. And it didn't come out anything like the way I figured it would. By ranking them from my charts, it turned out that Bowie, Carole King, and Krafterk were my favorite artists. But theyre not!!! It just appears that way. I don't know what I did wrong. So I just gave up.

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 :(
