Commentary

bulletKROQ must be trying to rewrite history, or the listeners have a massive case of collective denial--two albums ignored in their day, the Beastie Boys' Licensed to Ill and the Violent Femmes self-titled debut--are all over this list.  A full 8 (!) of Licensed to Ill's 13 tracks made the list, including Fight for Your Right to Party at #4, Girls at #14 and Brass Monkey at #32.  And when the album came out?  Only Fight for Your Right to Party made the list, at #51, in 1987!  I remember being very annoyed at how little they played the album.  In fact, KROQ plays the album more today than they did then!  And let's not forget that only one song each from the Beasties' superb second and third albums made the list--Paul's Boutique is only represented by Hey Ladies at #106.7 and Check Your Head by So What'cha Want at #39.  I feel like KROQ jumped on the bandwagon with the Hello Nasty album and then tried to retroactively claim to be longtime Beasties supporters, in a truly Orwellian fashion.
bulletA less egregious case of revisionism is the Violent Femmes album, which had NO songs that made the list, but has 3 in the top 100 here--Blister in the Sun at #9, Add It Up at #20, and Kiss Off at #73 (I'm surprised Gone Daddy Gone didn't make the list).
