>No, but there's such thing as a "somewhat objective album ranking".

What objective criteria do you think should be used to do the ranking? Number of chord progressions used? Variety of instruments on the album? Lingual diversity? Or maybe the inverse of one of these criteria would be better? Point being, even choosing an evaluation criteria is subjective.

The only semi-objective criteria I can think of would be the number of other albums/musicians it influenced - but this is basically a meta-ranking.

Aside, for the record, I wouldn't have Sgt Pepper anywhere near my top ten "greatest albums", but What's Goin On and Pet Sounds can stay.
