| | | | Pink Floyd Not on Time Top 100 Albums!!!
Sign in to disble this ad
Obviously the author must have a grudge becuase this is absolutly rediculous to any fan of Music.
Kanye West made the list and not Pink Floyd....what a joke!
I can't imagine that any fan of music of any genre couldnt find at least one Pink Floyd song or album that they considerd worthy.
I have come to one of two conclutions, 1) First comes all of Pink Floyds albums, then comes the top 100 or 2) Seeing as the albums were picked by decade, Pink Floyd would be featured in the 2050's....
Someone must agree |

I mean, Dark Side of the Moon (so I've heard) has been on the BillBoard Music Charts almost nonstop since it's release. Not to mention The Wall, Animals, Wish You Were Here...hell anything Floyd ever did was better then Kanye West.
Out of curiousity, which album was #1?

I haven't looked at the list and it's probably really stupid, but you can bet that MY top 100 list would have Floyd nowhere near it. |

| | | | Ok, I meant "respect" or "apreciate"
There was no #1 But it consided of The beatles, Led Zep, Miles Davis, Radiohead (both OK computer and Kid A), Hank Wiliams etc, I agree with all of those.
There were many emails about no Floyd, and the Author responded by adding to the top of the article that " NO pink floyd, and thats how it sould be. |

|  | Yeah, I'm a guy! Moderator | | Join Date: Feb 2004 Location: Marana, AZ, USA | | Remember people, it is the personal opinion of the author of the list. I'm sure there would be some bands that you guys like that I don't and wouldn't be mentioned if I made a Top 100 list.
BTW, I can't understand how you can have a Top 100 with no PF. IMO, ofcourse!  |

Rolling Stone does those lists too. they're terrible. Somehow Eminem is better than Miles Davis. |

Rankings are sensationalism to create controversy and jerk a sort of pseudo-relevance. I think it's ok to ask people to say what their favorites are but it is idiocy to have someone in the media claim that he or she can rank artistry. It's a ploy to send ripples just like it is doing here.
PS Kanye West should be enough to settle the matter of the credibility of the author. "No Floyd and that's the way it shoud be" sounds like something an angry child who doesn't know any better would say in that context. |

If he is indeed going for "influential" records, ones that changed the landscape of music in a significant way, I would argue for the inclusion of Albert King's Born Under a Bad Sign. |

While everyone might not dig Pink Floyd, there is no denying they have had some of the best selling records of all time. While it might not be in someone's personal top 100, not including one of the best selling records ever (Dark Side) is kinda stupid. |

I am 100% serious.
These lists exsist for one reason: Giving people something to bitch about.
