Produced by Brian Paulson & Wilco. Wilco's debut album is as close to the sound of Jeff Tweedy's previous band, Uncle Tupelo, as they ever got. More than any other Wilco record, this album is steeped in alt-country, and Tweedy gets to shine as a songwriter for really the first time. A lot of people prefer their later work, but for me, I'll take great songs like "Casino Queen", "Passenger Side" and "Pick Up The Change" over most of the more experimental side that has dominated their more recent work.

Being There

Produced by Wilco. After the split of Uncle Tupelo, Wilco and Jeff Tweedy were beaten soundly by Son Volt and Jay Farrar to see which one could come out with the better alt country album. Wico regrouped with a new sound, adding multi-instrumentalist Jay Bennett and released the two disc Being There, the beginning of the Wilco sound as we know it. Without the excess of their later work, Being There is beautiful and masterful, the best of Jeff Tweedy and the best of Wilco. A must have. [First added to this chart: 12/04/2011]

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 86.9/100, a mean average of 85.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.1/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 17.1.

This is an excellent list. Lots of "alt-country" here, which is much more Replacements-Meets-Bruce Springsteen than traditional folk or country.

I can't really give a good rating because I haven't listened to 96 of these albums, but I just want to say that I am convinced that Romanelli and AM are the same person

I really appreciate some of the more personal picks. This is a really good chart. 14 albums in common is pretty good. Perhaps one day I'll check out Uncle Tupelo.

Really love the detailed notes and careful selections!! I still feel it's a little too focused on American alt-rock for my liking however, would be nice to see some electronic releases/more hip hop besides Public Enemy at no.73!
