Why is Muswell Hillbillies so low?

I dig it! I personally would've put Muswell Hillbillies, Kink Kontroversy, and Kinda Kinks higher on my list, but I'll never tax someone for their opinion on something as subjective as ranking albums. Those first 5 records could be tossed up in the air and ranked however they landed and I'd be happy. Cheers

I like their first few albums much much more than you.

I'm guessing, based on your choices, you're more into hard rocking music?

Wholeheartedly agree with the top tier

Nice list

I probably would have put Kinda and Kontroversy a bit higher, and pretty much everything on your fourth tier (except Preservation 2) I probably would have bumped down.

Not to be a dick, but if you’re doing live albums like Everybody’s, then you should include One for the Road. I know Everybody’s only half live.

Technically the first part is a studio record

Perhaps this ranking is the studio half of EISB? Either way, in my opinion, One for the Road would still be in a different category from EISB. I’d include To the Bone, Live at Kelvin Hall, and Live: The Road along with One for the Road.
