Trans-Europe Express

By Kraftwerk (1977, #92)

I was expecting some “Sprokets” parody of itself.  This isn’t that.  It wasn’t my cup-of-tea but I see why it’s on this list.  For the time it was released, I can imagine this being quite the revelation.

Moondance

By Van Morrison (1970, #94)

What a great, frick’n, album! I didn’t have high hopes since I’ve heard the title track many times and don’t really enjoy it.  But this whole album is just really enjoyable.  Lots to recommend here.  

Back in Black

By AC/DC (1980, #95)

This is what I needed today: just a fun, high engergy Rock ’n Roll album.  I’m quite sure this was my first full listen, even if its most famous song (You Shook Me All Night Long) is unavoidable.  But this is indeed a great album.  Lots of really good songs and a cohesive whole.

Harvest

By Neil Young (1972, #97)

This is an amazing album.  Not sure there’s a loser among the bunch and it’s fricken’ packed with timeless songs.  Heart of Gold. Old ManThe Needle and the Damage DoneWords (Between the Lines of Age).  These are amazing songs on an amazing album.  Kinda shocked this didn’t end up higher on the list, frankly.

Physical Graffiti

By Led Zeppelin (1975; #98)

This is more like it.  A lot of great songs on here, if not a lot of hits. A lot of songs I’d never heard before and it has amazing energy throughout.  I could easily see returning to as background music while doing some work or just relaxing in front of the fireplace.
