This topic showed up on my Twitter feed and it seems like a great topic for the forum.

I thought about making it just rock history, but why limit it? What'cha got?

Late 60’s Beatles and early 70’s Stones have to be near the top of the list. Throw some Zeppelin in there and you probably have your top 3.

I'm not a big fan of what Garth Brooks has become, but he was an absolute force in the 90s

There may be 4 back to backs by the Beatles with an argument so besides them, Off the Wall and Thriller is pretty tough to beat.

My top 5:

Bringing It All Back Home
Highway 61 Revisited

Rubber Soul
Revolver

Surfer Rosa
Doolittle

Perfect From Now On
Keep It Like a Secret

The Lonesome Crowded West
The Moon and Antarctica


A lot of tough omission’s obviously, toughest one was probably Alligator and Boxer by the National.
