Chris tipped us off to Rolling Stone's Top 500 Albums.
A few comments.
How you know this list is crap:
In fact, the list really falls apart after 100. Brace yourself if you browse past that point.
A few comments.
- How did Fleetwood Mac's Rumors rate higher than Let It Bleed? How on Earth did it rate higher than Coltrane's GIant Steps?
- Dark Side of the Moon higher than It Takes A Nation of Millions? Crackers.
- Forever Changes, Love? WTF?!
- The Beatles' Please Please Me? I love The Beatles, but lets focus on the stuff they after they stopped trying to sing like Motown stars, m'kay?
- Born in the U.S.A. in the top 100? That's just crazy talk.
- I'm guessing that Elvis Costello is rather miffed that he rated lower than Creedence Clearwater Revival.
- I'm glad to see that Catch a Fire made the list. I thought I was alone in liking that one.
How you know this list is crap:
- The Saturday Night Fever soundtrack made number 131. Ahead of The Wild, the Innocent and the E Street Shuffle. Ahead of Aja.
- Elton John's Greatest Hits made the list? Greatest Hits?
- N.W.A's Straight Outta Compton Comes in ahead of Moanin' in the Moonlight, Paul's Boutique, and Bluesbreakers.
- Three words: Byrds Greatest Hits.
In fact, the list really falls apart after 100. Brace yourself if you browse past that point.
