top 100 v3 countdown: 70-61

top100

so i’ve just finished the third revision of my top 100 albums list — which to avoid confusion/arguments is a personal selection, not an attempt at a best of all time list — and to build some interest/excitement in the list beyond myself and the 1-2 other people that have traditionally cared about this i’ve decided to do a ten day countdown leading up to my number 1 album choice, vh1 best [whatever] of [decade] style.

[100 - 91]
[90-81]

[80-71]

70.      Sunset Rubdown- Shut Up I Am Dreaming (mp3: stadiums & shrines ii)
69.       Dinosaur Jr. – Bug (mp3: budge)
68.       El Guapo- Super/System (mp3: inevitability)
67.       Soul Coughing- Ruby Vroom (mp3: screenwriter’s blues)
66.       Spoon- Girls Can Tell (mp3: believing is art)
65.       The Presidents of the United States of America- the presidents of the united states of america (mp3: naked and famous)

    Good group of albums. Girls Can Tell is a personal favorite of mine as well.

    Props on Screenwriter’s Blues, one of my favorite Soul Coughing songs.

    I’m glad girls can tell made it past the one-album per artist blockade, best spoon album agreed. clearly screenwriter’s blues best soul coughing song by far, but top 100 consideration? watch it fall.

    thanks guys. you can’t beat the first 5 tracks of girls can tell. and @alex… ruby vroom isn’t going anywhere. it’s actually gone up a few spots each year so far.
