Debating whether or not I should do a followup series of posts regarding each album on the list and the reasons for their inclusion.

​SUBTHOUGHT: does it really matter? I don't think anyone is reading this anyway...

For some ungodly reason, I decided to take it upon myself to create a list of the 100 albums that collectively represent my musical taste. Yes, three of my own are in there and no, I won't apologise for that.

These are in alphabetical order by artist only.
To rank these on a scale of 1-100 would not only be an exercise in masochism, but also unfair to the albums themselves, as my preference to one over another is completely subjective to whatever is going on in my life at any given time.
