I have heard 90% and own 77% of them. I didn't count myself as owning a few of the compilations, even though I have every track on them.

I was thinking that we could create an TAS top 100 or 50 albums. I would be happy will to do the donkey work if enough were interested in participating, I think we would need at least 10 participants initially, we could add to this if new participants came along and obviously we could republish the revise positions, and keep a history.
It might be quite nice for us all and for new comers looking for a list of new stuff they maybe had not heard but was recommended by others, I think it is easy for us older ones to expect everyone to know the classics from the 60's, 70's, 80's and similarly it is hard for us to know of more recent great albums that may have slipped past us(I can think of one or two personally only recently discovered by me).
I would suggest certain types of albums/records are excluded, namely Compilations, Best Of's across all genres, with the exception of Classical in respect of compilations with the proviso that all content must be by the same composer. Any other suggestions for expulsions/inclusions?
To rate albums I was thinking along the lines:-
Why don't we each submit a top 100/50(as agreed), I will volunteer to collate them into a spread sheet and organise them into position.
I think the best way to work it out and make it as fair as possible would be as the example below, so if only MartinT and I submitted a top 100.
If I placed Pink Floyd - DSOTM at #1 then it would gain 100 points, Deep Purple in Rock #2 would gain 99 and so on.
If MartinT placed Pink Floyd - DSOTM at #40 then it would gain 60 points, and DP in Rock at #25 75 points.
So Pink Floyd - DSOTM would have a rating 160, Deep Purple in Rock 174.
The rating would establish the position in the Top 100/50 relative to each other, if we found we had or more than 1 album with a rating score of 1 then we would need to think about how to address this, possibly take a vote on which one should go into the chart and at what position, hopefully we would not have many of these.
What do you think?

Interesting idea. Regarding the point about albums with a score of 1, as far as I understand what you are proposing, you need to bear in mind that there is going to be a massive cull of submitted albums anyway, because there's no chance that we are all going to submit the same 100 albums. So it's just going to be a list of the 100 top scoring records.

We would need to know how to deal with a situation where two albums get the same total ranking. Perhaps considering the number of weeks in the charts or total worldwide sales figures would be the way to break a tie like that.

We would need to know how to deal with a situation where two albums get the same total ranking. Perhaps considering the number of weeks in the charts or total worldwide sales figures would be the way to break a tie like that. Yes, I was trying to think of a suitable way, I think mathematically it is not that likely we will get many exactly the same total rank scores, but it could happen. There is another issue, Record A could score 500 achieving that with 20 lower rank positions, an average rank of 25 (or average position 76 in the chart) and record B could achieve 500 with 10 submissions an average rank of 50 (or average position 49 in the chart), so which is right, personally I think the average ranking is the better indicator of chart position in this case. But is that the right way to go I'm not sure? I think BestEverAlbums take this approach where each person ranks an album as a % and then this is added to the others and an average % score is given i.e. Pink Floyd - DSOTM Average Rating: 92/100 (from 4,801 votes), in which case the 92 could be the mark for the chart position. But this is tricky as one person could mark an album as 100%(number 1) and that is not necessarily an accurate reflection of how 20 would people rank that album, it might actually end up poorly ranked as the other might only give it 10% each, in which case its it would be (100 + (19*10))/20 = 14.5% so a position of 87 with rounding. But what do we do with a low number of submission for an album. May be we exclude any with less than a certain number of entries? This certainly not straight forward. Any suggestions of how we should address this?
