Mine would probably be similar except I’d swap in like 5 more pre-70s jazz records because honestly that is now 90% of my listening
Basically, and then someone aggregated it for a sitewide list. I'm just interested in seeing where my taste falls now vs then. I'm going to try not to look at my 2020 list when I make my new one.
I find it extremely difficult to rank favorites. Unranked lists are easier for me, but I suppose there’s no way of aggregating that then
Holy shit, I never made one I already dumped around 30 albums into a Google Doc, so I'm on my way to a top 50
Knocking out a off-the-hip 50 without scrolling through my library or checking what I put in this thread 6 (!?) years ago. It feels like my tastes have changed less between 2020 --> 2026 than they will have done between 2014 --> 2020, but I suppose that's fairly natural, as you get older.

Edit: Put Bob Dylan's Highway 61 here twice. Oops!
