Re: Bracketology 4 Albums Edition: Round 2, Week 1
The thing is, this week, the top two groups have a lot of room, while the bottom two are stacked to the brim.
All good albums, save for the last, but none are favorites.

28 | Led Zeppelin | Led Zeppelin IV
41 | Joy Division | Closer
147 | The Rolling Stones | Aftermath
123 | Queen | A Night at the Opera
THe top two are in my all time top ten, while Dylan is probably in my all time top 200 as well.
4 | The Velvet Underground | The Velvet Underground & Nico
8 | The Rolling Stones | Exile on Main St.
11 | Bob Dylan | Highway 61 Revisited

Re: Bracketology 4 Albums Edition: Round 2, Week 1
All rankings from my 2014 Albums ballot.
The Who-Who's Next (#24)
Purple Rain (#37)
Nation of Millions (#164)
Songs in the Key of Life (bubbling)
Songs in the Key of Life is good despite my not ranking it in 2014.
Led Zeppelin IV (#5)
A Night at the Opera (#69)
Closer (#185)
Aftermath (NR)
Aftermath is probably my least favorite album this week.
Velvet Underground and Nico (#19)
Highway 61 (#55)
Exile on Main St. (#130)
Let it Bleed (#201)
The rankings should show you how stacked this bracket was.
Funeral (#57)
Innervisions (#133)
Kind of Blue (#205)
Daydream Nation (#219)
Separated into tiers, with the latter two towards a middle tier of my list.

From this point forward it becomes pointless to grouse about how such-and-such should have been in a different bracket, etc. - all of these rankings are going to be difficult. I'll just say that this week's third bracket is one of the greatest groups of four anythings ever assembled anywhere.
