I randomly clicked on the link for the top 100 and saw a Taylor Swift* album was at #99. That invalidates the whole list right there IMO.

Yeah, some serious Recency bias at work here.

*Don’t get me wrong, I love me some T-Swift, but top 100 of all tim she is not.

They put Marvin Gaye "What's Going On?" at #1 all time. It's a classic record that I've owned since college. It's not number one. Sorry.

Kayne West at #17? GTFO.

Are you talking musically or women you've been with?

Why wouldn't you list Van Halen 1 at #292, Let it Be at 342, Live at Leeds at #327 and Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest at #43?

Rolling Stone has always been retarded, I guess they just wanted everyone to know.

Who's Next at 77. In 2003 they had it at 2003, but had to drop it way down to make the list more woke for the millennial douche canoes. Any critique who doesn't have Who's Next in the Top 10 should DIAFF.

WHAT?!?!

I ❤️ Marvin Gaye, but I also agree with you.

I don’t think I’ve read Rolling Stone since I left college...based on this tiny sampling of information sounds like they no longer know what they’re talking about.

It got picked number 1 because its the soundtrack of 2020.

Like I said, Recency bias.

I have RED and am not ashamed to say it. Swift is a truly great voice and Red is her best work IMO. Clean and crisp. I think its top 500 but not top 100

And if you don't agree we are never ever getting back together

The fact that you have freely admitted this on HCH has made me love and respect you more, Race.

Even if it just a joke.

I looked for Highway to Hell and didn't see it.

I don't have anything else to add.

Before Swift became ultra famous she did a Crossroads with Def Leppard and I was impressed. Then watched a special where she performed Red. Then downloaded it. It's good.

Also was not even Kanye's best album, IMO. The list was definitely shit.

Race is a cultured man. I thought he'd be calling for inclusion of Beethoven and dropping knowledge about the top acts to appear at the Roman Colosseum during it's opening years.

I'm less inclined to open this article than u was the Bleacher Report article on the husky board projecting UW starters. I dont need frustration derailing my Friday joy.
