Doof: a Top 100... minus My Top 100
This list is a top 100 without any albums that featured in my official top 100 on RYM (including albums that have ever featured on the list and since dropped out) https://rateyourmusic.com/list/Doofy/current-top-100-albums/ - these albums have been selected on the amount I've played them, how important they were in getting into that band, how evocative of the time I discovered them they are, if I have positive associations with them, etc - so not quality above everything, more enjoyment and connection.
