New Day Rising is an all time record for me.........love it......those 3 classic records Zen Arcade (a double)/New Day Rising/Flip Your Wig (my fave) all came out within 14 months.
It's one of the great Rock runs in any decade imo

Hmmmmmmm thought the Guns N Roses would be higher.......for a whole generation of kids that was the first and in some ways "last" Rock album they heard .......Back in Black which served the same purpose for those kids older brothers should be coming up.......top 10?
Not my thing but.......

If they broke up after Hootenanny .......they'd still be one of the greatest bands ever and it would be their masterpiece.......instead they got better.

It's my favorite Springsteen record - especially the first side. Those screams/yelps at the end of State Trooper get me every time....it also kind of predates the whole alternative movement because it couldn't have been more of a F-You to Rock star kind of stuff.

Wow. I think I've only heard the Metallicas, Psychocandy, and The Smiths. I imagine I'll have heard more from the top 12 or so, but that is pretty bad.

#12: Born in the USA - Bruce Springsteen Not his best record, but my favorite of his from this decade. Absolutely great stuff, and I find most of the common criticisms lobbed at it completely off base.

Surprised you don't know Guns n Roses, I think that's one of (if not the) most popular albums I put on my ballot. I know the singles, but I don't generally hear people talk about their albums much. Same deal with Michael Jackson. I heard Thriller and Sweet Child O'Mine, but I don't think their albums are praised to an enormously high level - and I think that's usually what makes people wanna check the albums out I would guess.

Look at the bright side - you have a lot of stuff to check out now. I'm kind of jealous - I'd like to hear New Day Rising and Hootenanny for the FIRST time again

Over Nebraska and The River? Naaaaaaaaaah. Gimme the much more interesting Tunnel of Love over it too. Love all those (well, maybe *love* is strong for Tunnel, but I do like it a lot), you can't go wrong with any of them, Born in the USA just hits me differently. Nebraska is the best for pure lyricism though, I'll give you that.

Daydream Nation seems like a definite choice. Probably a Prince album although I am not a huge fan.

I don't even know where the idea to make Closer came from - I mean Unknown Pleasures was dark but this album when it gets into Decades and The Eternal is a black hole of despair........it's great Art though and a singular record.
