      I'm in my late 40's and I remember growing up listening to his albums on my record player. Prince, Michael Jackson's Thriller and Madonna's Like a Virgin album were on constant repeat. I think Purple Rain should have been much closer to the number one spot. At least in the top 5.

I didn't buy Rubber Soul when I discovered them with the 1 album, but I've heard it a few year's later thanks to the internet and I feel it's their best cuz it's still popish like most of their fans loved, before they went more alternative which is what I liked more.

    A relatively conventional list, but I can't argue that all titles mentioned are worth being there. Additionally, this is very much a best POP (as in "popular" which includes rock, hip-hop, and country) albums of all time since there is no jazz or classical. I'd put John Coltrane's A Love Supreme, Miles Davis's Kind of Blue and Charlie Parker's With Strings on a more comprehensive "Best Albums" list.

      Chicago had the most success on the Billboard Charts I've heard, along with the Beach Boys of any American band. Lean towards their earlier stuff from their hard rock jazz albums such as Chicago II or their early move into pop such as the underrated Hard Streets but 17 was their best selling and hands down, best album of the '80s. Thought 19 was alright (not a fan of 18) and while Im more of a fan of Bobby Lamm and Terry Kath as vocalists, they weren't the same without Peter Cetera.

He had never paid much attention to the music of The Beatles but he seriously couldn't believe what he was about to experience. If you know about music or play an instrument, you have surely come across something by The Beatles at the time, they gave rise to many ways of making music and would change everything that music was at that time. I made my project with just them and especially that album. I had never heard an album of that level, with so many things inside each song and without a doubt A Day in The Life was the one that introduced me to what they were. Spectacular. Undoubtedly
