Top 100 Music Albums of 2022

12/16/2022: First end-of-year top 100 (+)
---
05/22/2022: I'm on track for a full top 100 for the first time ever. Robust year!
---
I moved up the MAY1 rereview to MAR1 so that I wasn't too overwhelmed rereviewing (around JUN1/JUL1/AUG1 timeframe). I'm also thinking of changing the rereview time periods from MAY1/AUG1/NOV1 to the # of albums in my current-year chart. The review album periods then would be 12/25/50 (then maybe a NOV1/DEC1 rereview of the 70+s, time allowing).
