Good place for PR. Its impact and popularity was huge as we all know.

1999 should have been in top 50.

SOTT should have been top 25. Even though it is the best Prince record, the popularity of PR outshines it. Plus, its not like PR was wack.

Parade should have been top 100.

Also, Sgt. Pepper at number 1, but Revolver at 42? These muhfuckas was on crack making this list.

PLUS, ILLMATIC @ 185 but "ridin' on my enemieeeees sippin hennesyyyyy's" All Eyez On Me @ 90???

HAhaha, 3 Jay-Z albums but no REASONABLE DOUBT? Wow. What a wack list.

No READY TO DIE? WHAT?!?!?!?

A LOVE SUPREME AT 78???? THE LOVE SUPREME!!! 'TRANE MAN!

And how is KIND OF BLUE not in top 5?

Its official, these dumbasses don't know black music.

And the sad part about it is that they even added those so-called "new classics" into the mix. Nelly, Britney Spears, Christina, Usher, R. Kelly? Are they kidding me?

I am guessing that the list was compiled as an advertisement. Amazon.com seems to be taking advantage of it in order to convince readers for example that Christina Aguilera is essential to their record collection, because OBVIOUSLY it is one of the two hundred greatest albums in modern popular music. disbelief
