My version of the transliteration of this list :) There is one error on the release year, for the X Japan album (1993 instead of 1992). Format: act name [in Japanese characters, if relevant] | album title [in Japanese characters, if relevant] | release date [note, if any] 1990 Southern All Stars [サザ...

I would disagree

It's fairly common with jazz album covers actually. I believe it's much more simple to keep the album credited to the leader for the session

I prefer the RYM version, but I will regardless repost it from s...

Got it bookmarked, I will get back to it. Thanks a lot Arsalan!

I think the "photos" in the title translation is a Google Translate mistake, it should be translated roughly as "pieces" and this is indeed an album list.

I just want to give a salute to veteran classic rock musicians Magnum, who just released what has a good change of being their final album, since their main songwriter and co-founding member Tony Clarkin passed away a week ago. R.I.P! The album in itself is standard classic rock fare. The joined vid...

Not eligible; this is an online store

The eligibility needs to be checked but it seems to be an amateur blog or something like that

No probs for me if Henrik agrees with it. I'm having fun doing research on Japanese albums

If he would prefer someone else to do it, fine by me as well!

The list is presented as ranked on RYM, but that's actually an error, it is in chronological order of the main entries. Each main entry features one secondary entry from the same artist and two more from other similar artists, but there are a couple cases where the rule is rather loosely enforced. G...

If anyone wants to create spreadsheets with lists of Japanese albums and songs (like the eoy spreadsheets) that would be VERY appreciated! It would seem only natural that I would do the album spreadsheet. I actually reformatted all the Japanese album lists to make such a task easier. Any request in...

^ About how the top 20 from the magazine is different, I did not inquire about it. I did not even do the calculation for myself because I didn't care.

David Soul was most famous for playing detective Ken "Hutch" Hutchinson in the TV series Starsky & Hutch. He was also a ballad singer who did have a #1 hit in several countries in 1976 with "Don't Give Up on Us".

Another reformatting; very quickly done since it's almost the same as the Daisuke Kawasaki list (which is an update of this one). The first Japanese list ever posted on the AM forum, full of typos!

Another old Japanese list of which I wanted to update the transliteration; there are juvenilia mistakes in that one.

I updated the transliteration for this list; the original one was just copy-pasted from the blog and left much to be desired.

More exotic lists from ineligible sources. Highwire Daze is a printed magazine, but the top 10 of the year is by a single author and they don't apparently plan to do a staff list. https://highwiredaze.com/2023/12/16/top10of2023/ (Author: Kenneth Morton) Codeseven | Go Let It In Conmac | Chains Delux...

I hope I'm not being a source of too much trouble with this. I didn't expect the website to be in the eligibility zone at all

Pierre

Alright, I’ve looked at Semrush (I couldn’t get Similarweb to work) and it seems that this falls out of the top 1,000,000, so it is ineligible. Very well :) The opposite would have been a surprise for me actually. I wish them good luck for the future though, they really work their *** off for their...

Hello! Super happy to hear from you on this site. Just an FYI, other lists from your site are included on Acclaimed Music, it's just that EOY lists have different criteria. So on the topic of FastNBulbous's end of year list, is it just one person, or is it a consensus list among your contributors. ...

Pierre

Thanks for at least considering. A little background, while I don't have a paid staff, I do have a half dozen contributors. I started in 1995, just before Pitchfork. Coincidentally, Ryan moved from Mpls to Chicago shortly after and was just down the street from me for a while. While he did a great ...

It's ineligible as well as far as I know. Website-only, with a podcast and a Youtube channel.

Yep!
