Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by jbfarmer
Growing up in a small town in Idaho, I’m surprised that my music taste ever became what it is. My dad was a music major for a few years in college, so I guess that combined with my obsession with the piano from a young age kinda just evolved over the years. There was a point where I was the only person I knew that liked my music outside of my family. I collected records and checked out this website all by myself. Eventually I had friends that I could relate to with this stuff. Feel free to check out their charts, too! keatownrodriguez and pjohnsongolf
A lot of these albums mean a lot to me and have been the soundtracks to important phases of my twenty years of life. There’s always more work to be done on this chart, but I can feel pretty good about it for now. After making this chart, I feel more like I just wrote an autobiography so I hope you can enjoy my story.

Now with that all said, I have to explain why I chose “Pinkerton” as my favorite album by Weezer.
For the longest time, Blue was my obvious favorite. The summer memories, and the overall nostalgic and positive vibes I felt from listening to the album put it at the top for me. That didn’t change until my first semester in college. It was the beginning of my adult life, I didn’t have any inner-circle friends, and a week into the semester, I went through my first breakup. I loved school, and I loved studying music, but my social life was a mess. Pinkerton is a lot more depressing than Blue, but it is the album that got me through that breakup and those other hard things I was going through. I didn’t need an album that would cheer me up. I needed an album that would tell me that it’s okay for me to be sad. “The Good Life” and “No Other One” felt especially relatable to me at the time. In the end, I got a lot better, and I found a lot of people that I could depend on. But I needed that time to recognize how sad I was, and because of that, Pinkerton will always have a special meaning to me.

Never in history has more thought and time been put into a greatest albums of all time chart. This man is a legend and the only reason I ever found this website. The pure craziness and drastic differences from one artist to the next should tell you how much he knows music. I don’t have all the same favorite artists or albums, but I have major respect for this chart.
This is everything a BEA chart should be, though a lot of the albums on here aren't my cup of tea, the personal comments make it great would've rated 100 if every album had a comment. Came to this through a shared love for the Chicago album and would probably have skipped through it if not for the comments. I get how experience shapes the music we come to love, for example "Take Me Home Country Roads" A tune I once regarded with disdain has become a favourite memory now of a drunken karoake night in Thailand. I would like to return here years from now to see how it evolves over a time. If BEA had been around in my 20's it would have been a completely different chart to the one now, probably contain a lot more cheesy 80's synthpop.
Hope that is a typo in the Nirvana comment & that your brother loved & not lived a long time ago, was bit worried there. Never knew Robert Smith did a song with Blink 182.
as a postscript while typing this had that Plini album playing in the background, it's a grower. Nice one

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 :(
We work very hard to ensure our site is as fast (and FREE!) as possible, and we respect your privacy.
