100 Albums That Changed Music by Sean Egan

So much more than another best-ever roundup, here you'll find the reasons why these 100 albums deserve recognition for the way in which they transformed music. This work includes incisive, expert commentary on the stand-out albums from the bands and performers that really turned things on their head: from Bob Dylan to the Sex Pistols, and from Miles Davis to Marvin Gaye. What exactly was the alchemy that the Beatles performed which so profoundly altered popular music in the 1960s and how should we understand the impact and lasting significance of the classic albums of the 60s and 70s like "Grievous Angel", "Never Mind the Bollocks", "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan", and "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust" and the "Spiders from Mars". How did the seminal albums of the 80s and 90s: "Like a Virgin"; "Thriller"; "Nevermind" and "Straight out of Compton" change and influence the music we listen to today? If you have one book on the shelf by your album collection, it should be this one.
