Top Greatest Albums #101-200 by 
AAL2014 
The time has officially come. My top one hundred is full, yet ever-changing. But I just have too many records that I love and have listened to a number of times that just didn't (or just haven't up to this point) made the elite top 100 cut. It's going to be a hell of a ride putting this list together but eventually this will be filled too. As always, my favorite tracks from each album will be listed and the drummer(s) who play on the respective albums will be acknowledged.
This will be more of a rough draft than my Top 100 but I hope you enjoy, thank you for checking in!

Overall Chart #101
I’m thinking my spots for #’s 101 and 102 will always reside to the albums shown here as honorary main chart records. An extension of the true exclusive company that my favorite albums belong to and the memories I have revolving around them.
Iron Maiden is one of my favorite bands of all time and Piece of Mind is a really special record to me. Every Maiden album of the 80’s is worth listening to and if you’re a fan, pouring yourself into, but Piece of Mind is the true and complete beginning of my favorite era and lineup of the band. This is drummer Nicko McBrain’s first album with the band and the first thing you hear is his MIGHTY intro fill to the epic Where Eagles Dare, one of Maiden’s finest openers and a song you can point to as influence on other parts of their catalog.
Elsewhere through the track list, we have some of my favorite Maiden cuts ever like Revelations, the oft-overlooked closer To Tame a Land, and of course, The Trooper. The band expand their song-crafting and improve on production to make these songs sound larger than life, and like you’re a part of the tales you’re being told.
This is one of my most listened albums ever and it will always hold a special place in my heart. I already have two Maiden records on my main chart and I’ve been considering swapping this one with Seventh Son of a Seventh Son. For now, imagine this as just as much a part of my main chart as Seventh Son or nearly any other album there.
Favorite Tracks: Where Eagles Dare, Revelations, The Trooper

Overall Chart #102
The other true honorary selection to my main chart belongs to my all time favorite band’s final hour.
Clockwork Angels dropped (after a few years of speculation surrounding its arrival) the summer between my junior and senior years of high school. It was not only a great record in the band’s discography, it was an emotional trip with a lot of parallels relating to my life at the time and the uncertainty of the future during my senior year and beyond. Listening to this record helped remind me to take in this final year with my friends and not take anything for granted.
We are reminded of why it’s okay to wait for new Rush music with all of the creative musicianship and crafty Neil Peart lyricism and storytelling at many points throughout the runtime. The album’s closer, The Garden, has brought me to tears so many times… before and of course after the passing of Neil Peart. Such a beautiful way to close the book on a band, a career, a brotherhood, a journey.
It’s a measure of a life.
Now on to the records contending for my main chart….

Overall Chart #103
It’s simply a matter of time and a few more listens before All Things Must Pass walks into a solid spot on my main top 100 list. So much wonderful, soul-fueled, soul-filling songs on this album and so many different moods that Harrison pulls off with ease and terrific sequencing.
The first 6 or so songs to start ATMP is one of the great stretches of songs on any album. And that’s only the tip of this album’s gargantuan and giving iceberg.
Favorite Tracks: All Things Must Pass, Wah-Wah, Hear Me Lord [First added to this chart: 01/18/2023]
