Honestly, who cares about charts? In this top 100 there are albums rated in the first 20 that I loathe, and albums I love rated over #70, so what? It happens with all lists in the world, not a big deal...

It may have had somewthing to do with those albums all being considered somewhat better than Dream Theater, or perhaps I just posted it because Ken and Joyce told me, "Do it for Heino"?

1
4.63 | 1648 ratings
QWR = 4.6124

Ken
Prog Folk
Studio, 1972
Shop
2
4.35 | 815 ratings
QWR = 4.3248
Joyce
Joyce
Tech/Extreme Prog Metal
Studio, 1983


Seriously, I just tampered with the list that DTguitarfan gave.  As for the rhyme or reason for why I thought of those particular albums, most of them have poor ratings, some I think funny, some relevant like that Three Tenors with Labrie one to the DT discussion (that is a low rated album that I have heard and found very cheesy, no pun intended at all that time), and the centrepiece is Heino.

I do like it when things take a turn for the ridiculous, and people feel comfortable to let their whims run free.

That all sounds highly profound, but the time here is far too late for me to be pondering Marmite at a progressive rock site, when I have to get up early and throw children about at work.
