Entertainment Weekly‘s 100 Greatest Albums Ever

And if ANYONE should know, it is Entertainment Weekly!

(JK's know-it-all trash talkin' the list) Okay, these lists come out periodically and they almost never change at the top (the top is at the bottom in this case, but you smart-asses know what I mean).  Lots of Beatles and Stones.  However, Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (MBDTF to you hipster-defuses) sneaked into the Top 10!  What up with that, Jerry? Adele 21 at 17?  Really?  Cool album, but pretty safe stuff, don't you think?  Give me Dusty in Memphis (97) or Back to Black (74).  Best album of all time with dorkiest album cover goes to Pet Sounds (9).  Back to bed on that one, Brian Genius Wilson!  And why are anthologies in the list?  Why is Revolver (1) 45 slots higher than Rubber Soul (46)?  Funny, Dylan's 'comeback' album (6) is considered his best!  What, no Exile in Guyville?  The Banana Album is under appreciated at 38.
