New Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list
Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time was originally published in 2003, with a slight update in 2012. Over the years, it’s been the most widely read — and argued over — feature in the history of the magazine (last year, the RS 500 got over 63 million views on the site). But no list is definitive — tastes change, new genres emerge, the history of music keeps being rewritten. So we decided to remake our greatest albums list from scratch. To do so, we received and tabulated Top 50 Albums lists from more than 300 artists, producers, critics, and music-industry figures (from radio programmers to label heads, like Atlantic Records CEO Craig Kallman). The electorate includes Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, and Billie Eilish; rising artists like H.E.R., Tierra Whack, and Lindsey Jordan of Snail Mail; as well as veteran musicians, such as Adam Clayton and the Edge of U2, Raekwon of the Wu-Tang Clan, Gene Simmons, and Stevie Nicks.
How We Made the List and Who Voted When we first did the RS 500 in 2003, people were talking about the “death of the album.” The album —and especially the album release — is more relevant than ever. (As in 2003, we allowed votes for compilations and greatest-hits albums, mainly because a well-made compilation can be just as coherent and significant as an LP, because compilations helped shaped music history, and because many hugely important artists recorded their best work before the album had arrived as a prominent format.) Of course, it could still be argued that embarking on a project like this is increasingly difficult in an era of streaming and fragmented taste. But that was part of what made rebooting the RS 500 fascinating and fun; 86 of the albums on the list are from this century, and 154 are new additions that weren’t on the 2003 or 2012 versions. The classics are still the classics, but the canon keeps getting bigger and better. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/m...-time-1062063/ Last edited by SisterNightroad; 09-27-2020 at 04:49 AM.. |

Wow Taylor Swift has 2 albums on the list and Tusk didn't even make the cut The 1975 "White " album was on the last one.Looks like it got bumped by Harry Style's new one this time.

For once, I’d like to see THEN PLAY ON or even KILN HOUSE make this list. Two incredible records in very different ways. |

Mystery to Me, Tusk, Fleetwood Mac, and Bella Donna should definitely be in the top 500

KILN HOUSE is a one-of-a-kind record, an honest unaffected record that achieves a great deal. I am not embarrassed by my love of it; nor am I surprised many don’t understand its appeal.
