Rolling Stone says it's the best of all time. What say you?
The most importnat band in the world. Definitive two-disk album with an iconic cover, the height of their artistic power, and not a bad song on the record. Timelessly kick-ass.
Incredible album. Nothing like it before or since.
Mostly regarded as the Rolling Stones best album includes Tumbling Dice and Happy
"Ramble Tamble", "Before You Accuse Me", "Travelin' Band", "Ooby Dooby", "Lookin' out My Back Door", "Run Through the Jungle" (J. Fogerty), "Up Around the Bend", "My Baby Left Me", "Who'll Stop the Rain", I Heard It Through the Grapevine", "Long as I Can See the Light"
perfect example of Townshend can go from rock opera to an entire album of number 1 songs. Behind Blue Eyes and Baba ORiley lead the album.
You could pick any of four Beatles albums as the greatest album of all time but this one is my choice.

Ok, there are even a couple songs on Disc 2 that I like (Down by the Seaside, Bron-Yr Aur), but oh that first disc, the best ever, and my favorite tune is one not so often played on my classic rock station, The Rover.
Nice list, seems we dont need to search for rock albums on net anymore.
This was the final and sharpest nail in the coffin of disco.
A live album. And quite a departure from the rest of his stuff. A cleaner sound, more artistic, less distortion for the sake of it.
With songs like "You Really Got Me," "Runnin' with the Devil," and "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love" , plus Eruption no explanation is needed
music made me:Indie,Britpop,Trip-hop,Post-rock,electronic
"Take It Easy", "Witchy Woman", "Lyin' Eyes", "Already Gone", "Desperado", "One of These Nights", "Tequila Sunrise", "Take It to the Limit", "Peaceful Easy Feeling", "Best of My Love"
Refreshing sound when they got big. Have you ever got tired of 'Hard To Handle'?
I know it's hard to put Boston in the same company as Hendrix, Led Zep and the Who, but this album did sell over 15 million copies.
Aerosmith were one of Top 40's favorite hard-rock bands,
"T.N.T. (Terror 'N Tinseltown)", "Dr. Feelgood", "Slice Of Your Pie", "Rattlesnake Shake", "Kickstart My Heart", "Without You", "Same Ol' Situation (S.O.S.)", "Sticky Sweet", "She Goes Down", "Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away)", "Time For Change"
You can listen to the whole album - not a bad song on there.
"Daydream Nation is one of the most highly regarded albums by alternative rock band Sonic Youth. It was voted the best album of the 1980s by Pitchfork Media, and has subsequently been regarded as a classic. A number of prominent music periodicals, including Rolling Stone and Spin Magazine, hailed Daydream Nation as one of the best albums of the 1980s. It marks the group's final shift from their noise-rock roots into a more subtle combination of guitar experimentation and traditional rock."
One of the definitive albums of the 80's and a key ingredient in launching the "grunge" era. Outstanding.
The record that signalled a turning point in Rock and Roll History.
Firstly, because they were to Rock Music what Muhammed Ali was to boxing. Secondly, because Zach used to be in Inside Out, Farside and Hard Stance. Thirdly, because for every 100 Matrix-loving, trenchcoat-wearing greebos there's 1 kid who truly understands that "the rage is relentless".
So I'm sittin here, listening to..."Under the Bridge" and "Give it Away" etc. by one of the Greatest Rock Bands of All Time,.. and I was wondering why it wasn't on this list. I hate to break the magic # (37resources is special after all), but...it is now. Excuse the /.href
Virtuoso Blues Rock Classical fusion with attitude and style. A landmark album.
The album that killed the grunge and introduce industrial to the mainstream.
I can listen to this cd from begining till end, great cd. DAVE GROHL IS GOD
Diabolus In Musica - the title says it all, listen to it - it's like nothing you've ever heard.
Basically a compilation of anthems rather than just songs.
There is no filler material on this album. It's solid from start to finish.
Hmmm, should we break up this list into Rock, Hard Rock, and Heavy Metal?
Why are there only old dinosaur bands?
They more than that?
Best albums generally require longevity. Albums that stand the test of time are more easily qualified then a short lived coaster like the Back Street Boys.
Come on vote for darkside of the moon - do some shrooms and listen to that album that'll convince you!
Because they are the best, Cinlister! But I don’t think I have seen Masterplan here, have I?
Even if I were making a list of the best ever irrelevant self-indulgent pompous prog-rock noodling albums I would have to think twice about including Mike Oldfield.
