A redundant coffee-table book version of an article and list readily available at http://www.rollingstone.com/, it is a purely subjective ranking of what the musicians, writers, producers, industry insiders, and other critics who voted for them think are the greatest albums of all time. I went through my CD collection and found that I own only 96 of them; including the top seven; nine of the top ten; and ten of the top twelve. Right or wrong, this list is sure to start arguments. I personally found the list interesting for the inclusion of a lot of albums that are so-called "critics' darlings" (albums that were influential but didn't sell well), such as Television's *Marquee Moon* at #129. ( ) This tribute to what is regarded as the greatest recorded music was such a lucky book sale find. It not only provides a summary and background of the albums that were chosen for the list but also the iconic covers. Conveniently, the individuals who did the voting are included, followed by an index of artists and albums. It was fun to read about the music I own, which happily forms a major percentage of those listed, although I was able to find a couple that I might add to my collection. Now my task is to go through my music to see what was missed! In any case, this is a treasure that I'll refer to often. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
