Nearly 4 years ago, we first counted down the Top 200 albums in my iTunes library. Since that time, I’ve successfully managed to migrate my music collection to a new PC with the stats intact. So, I figured it was time to take another look, based on number of plays from late 2007 through January 1, 2018.
We continue things with the next batch of 10 albums that rank between #171 and 179, including 8 studio recordings, 1 live performance, and, to kick things off, 1 comedy record.
#179: Patton Oswalt – My Weakness Is Strong
iTunes stats: 45 plays
Previous Ranking: N/A
The third comedy album from Oswalt combines to make it’s debut on the list.
#179: Beatles – Beatles For Sale
iTunes stats: 45 plays
Previous Ranking: 141
Only 3 tunes make up this abbreviated total, which would be higher if I hadn’t deleted the original versions, for the remastered version of the Beatles fourth studio album.
#177: Garbage – Virgin Megastore In-Store
iTunes stats: 46 plays
Previous Ranking: 135
A slight drop in ranking for this WXRT broadcast of the in-store appearance to support the new Beautiful Garbage album.
#177: Cracker – Cracker
iTunes stats: 46 plays
Previous Ranking: 152
Only 2 songs from Cracker’s debut album make up this total.
#171: Weezer – Weezer (Green Album)
iTunes stats: 47 plays
Previous Ranking: 135
After a long layoff, Weezer returned in the early 2000s with their third album (and second self-titled effort), which had 2 songs make up this total.
