Tot zover de Top-100 volgens de deskundigen van het Amerikaans muziekblad Rolling Stone. Ik kan mij best terugvinden in de top-10 aangezien mijn idolen, The Beatles, er maar liefst 4-maal in terug te vinden zijn. Toch had ik de LP "Abbey Road" hoger willen zien eindigen dan "The White Album". "Exile on Main Street" van The Rolling Stones vind ik ook minder goed dan "Aftermath", "Goats Head Soup", "Beggar's Banquet", "Let It Bleed" en "Between The Buttons". "London Calling" van The Clash zou er bij mij ook niet inkomen maar een "best of-cd" van The Clash is wel best te pruimen. Creedence Clearwater Revival, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, The Who en nog vele anderen hadden hoger genoteerd mogen worden, maar zoals het gezegde luidt: "Over smaken en kleuren valt niet te redetwisten".
Hier volgt de Top-10 nog eens in beeld:
Nummer 1: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles - 1967
Nummer 2: Pet Sounds - The Beach Boys - 1966
Nummer 3: Revolver - The Beatles - 1966
Nummer 4: Highway 61 Revisited - Bob Dylan - 1965
Nummer 5: Rubber Soul - The Beatles - 1965
Nummer 6: What's Going On - Marvin Gaye - 1971
Nummer 7: Exile On Main Street - The Rolling Stones - 1972
Nummer 8: London Calling - The Clash - 1979
Nummer 9: Blonde On Blonde - Bob Dylan - 1966
Nummer 10 - The Beatles (aka The White Album) - The Beatles - 1968
