I realize lists are subjective, but this is pure shit for many reasons, and gives me the impression these people don't listen to music.

First off, why are there only 4 albums from the 1950's on the list? That gives me the impression this was thrown together by some contemporary "music elitists" who think The Beatles invented rock and roll wtf.

Second off, WHERE IS FUCKING PINK FLOYD? Dark Side of the Moon? The Wall? WTF? This should be a crime; I have never seen a list this disturbing. It includes Hole, but not Pink Floyd? Kanye West, but no Tupac? WTF? I agree College Dropout is one of the best albums of the 2000s, but Tupac's absense anywhere on the list is insulting considering he's most influencial rapper of all time.

One Hendrix album, and no Clapton albums? No Cream (where the fuck is Disraeli Gears?)? Oh god...

That list is awful.  Reminds me why I hate music journalists more than anyone else in the world.

I've never seen a list that includes so many "Best Of" albums. I can understand putting Legend on the list, but all the other compilations don't deserve to be listed.

Pink Floyd sucks, but where the fuck is Marquee Moon, Hex Enduction Hour, White Light/White Heat, If You're Feeling Sinister, Unknown Pleasures, New York Dolls and The Queen is Dead? Those are all pretty obvious inclusions.

Too much token rap shit too.

Happy about Ziggy Stardust and Hunky Dory making it.  Beatles are also represented well. Needs more Who and Zeppelin albums.  Would've been nice to see something by The Kinks, Weezer, or the Pixies.   

Where the heck is The Doors, The Doors?

Marshall Mathers LP is an amazing, amazing album, but putting it on a "top 100 list of all time" is stretching it. Yeah it's one of the best rap albums of the 2000s and shit, but god dammit...Pink Floyd :( >:(
