Over half of the list is 70s's music which confirms my opinion the best music is from that decade. 1 more album is borderline 70's and released in 1980. 2 other albums reveal how big country music is in the United States.

Hootie was huge in the states in the late 90s with one album. They played sold out venues the entire year. But I never thought it was that successful to beat Rumours. Hootie got flamed by music critics of sounding like a lounge cover act. They had other hits from the album instead of I Only Want To Be With You.

Motley Crue released an album that debuted at #2 and was beat by Garth Brooks #1. I will never forget Nicki Six saying "Who the F*** is Garth Brooks?" Unless you were into country no one knew who he was.
